    Looks like Labour will just be ignoring them, still it allows them to make a "statement".

    Jacob and nanny move in for the kill

    If you can believe the soaraway Sun.

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/675280...chequers-plan/

    THERESA May faces the biggest Brexit rebellion of her premiership after furious Eurosceptics today formally launched a bid to block her Chequers plan.

    The Sun can reveal that Jacob Rees-Mogg and fellow Tory backbenchers have lodged a total of FOUR amendments to alter Government’s flagship Trade Bill – claiming No 10 has “broken their trust”.

    It’s the first big show of strength by the Eurosceptic grouping on the Tory backbenches and threatens to wipe out Theresa May’s Commons majority when the bill goes before MPs on Monday.

    One amendment demands the UK scraps its pledge to collect taxes and duties on behalf of the EU unless EU member states vow to do likewise.

    Mr Rees-Mogg today told The Sun this would effectively kill off Mrs May’s Chequers plan for a "Facilitated Customs Arrangement" as it would be impossible for EU nations to agree.

    Another - backed by the DUP and Labour’s Kate Hoey – would force the Government to agree in law to a commitment to never having a border down the Irish sea.
