Chequers latest:

Am told that Andrea Leadsom and Esther McVey grumbled about the Brexit offering....but Boris was very quiet and Gove enthusiastic while Fox and Grayling (who’s doing Today tomorrow) were on good behaviour: some Tory Eurosceptics annoyed that no one resigned....
Indeed apparently Boris gave a mini speech at dinner supporting the deal, some colleagues found it “moving” apparently, that bit may or may not be sarcastic
this is like being promised Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid and getting Love Actually instead
okay so apparently there were a few concerns raised by Mordaunt, Fox, Javid and Boris but one participant described this as “half-hearted” #Chequers

Big Labour policy announcement coming up any second now, hold on tight.....
Every large British company would be forced to hand over 10 per cent of its equity to workers within a decade under Labour plans branded “draconian” by one business group.....
Unveiling one of the most interventionist business policies put forward by a mainstream British political party for a generation, John McDonnell said workers would become “part-owners” of their employers, eventually benefiting by up to £500 a year in dividend payments....

goodbye European red tape, hello British red tape
technically what’s happening is that we are keeping the red tape that business hates (employment, environmental regulations) and bringing in a load of fresh red tape to deal with our former EU partners
production of the new red tape will be outsourced to a French company

sticking journalists in a room with about 150 pages of technical Brexit jargon with only an hour to read and file it..it’s almost as if Dexeu doesn’t want much scrutiny of its no-deal plans
here's how it worked: reporters were let in at 9.30 and given papers around 9.35, then told that they had to leave the room at 10.30 to go watch Raab speech, leaving papers behind: officials have relented and let journalists take the documents with them, but even so...
Dominic Raab is asked by @LibbyWienerITV whether the documents represent a "red tape bonanza" for companies trying to do business in Europe: the Brexit secretary admits that there would be "some extra regulatory changes".....
