Giles Watling
"As I think my right hon. Friend is aware, I voted to remain in the referendum, and I do not think that he did. Like us, the country is split, and the leave vote won. Does he agree that unity and strength are the only way forward and that holding a second referendum would be expensive madness leading to further division and strife?"
David Davis
"Not only would it lead to further division and strife, as my hon. Friend puts it, it would also create an incentive for the European Union to give us the worst deal possible, and surely that must trump all other points."
