Nothing has changed? Come off it. The Prime Minister is treating voters and MPs like fools.

As a split in the Conservative Party finally threatens for real, May must explain why and when she backed off mutual recognition.

Chloe Westley: You think the LibDems were punished over tuition fees? That’s nothing compared to the fate that now stalks the Tories over Brexit.

They risk a reputation of betraying the largest vote in British history.

Brexiteer frog at boiling point

What may count most today is not whether the water simmers over, but whether his temper and patience do instead – or first.

Iain Dale: May, the Eric Dier of Downing Street, steps up to take that fifth penalty

Plus: The Sports Minister speaks to a stranger on the tube. Phone-in callers back Universal Credit. And: It’s Coming Home, It’s Coming Home, It’s Coming Home…

Andrew Green: Next up after today’s Chequers summit – immigration. Free movement must end. No ifs or buts.

Any exceptions for those with job offers would simply be flimsy camouflage for a wholesale retreat and for the abandonment of a major pledge to the British public.

May’s emerging negotiation plan. A port in a storm – not the end of the journey.

A Brexit in the hand is worth two in the bush. None the less, the Commons will have to vote her proposals down, if the EU banks them but offers no proper deal in return.

Nick Boles and Robert Syms: One of us was a Remainer, the other a Leaver. We join now with other Tory MPs to back Theresa May.

Any Cabinet member who throws their toys out of the pram at Chequers will receive a cold shoulder in the tearoom.

Henry Newman: Yes, we have proposed a voluntary managed alignment in goods. But direct ECJ jurisdiction must end.

Either a new dispute resolution mechanism will be required, or the UK could dock into part of the EFTA court to resolve disputes over goods.

Iain Dale: A betrayal, a contortion, a rash, a shambles, a schism, a squabble. What’s the best collective noun for Cabinet ministers?

And: One Greg Clark. Two Vince Cables. Eleven Germans going home. 100,000 Remain protesters. 17 million Leave voters. Plus: Meanwhile, Javid gets on with his job.

John Stevenson, Jeremy Lefroy and Paul Masterton: There’s a better way for the Government on Europe – joining EFTA

Within EFTA, there are already two models of relationship with the EU – the EEA and the Swiss model. There is no reason why there could not be a third.

“When each one of us lies choking in his own blood upon the ground”

May’s appeal next week at Chequers will be founded in grinding detail, not Churchillian rhetoric. Key to agreement will be taking Ministers with her and springing no untoward surprises.

WATCH: Fox says our EU partners would be “foolish to think the PM is bluffing”

“If we have not got a deal that’s good for Britain. If there were attempts to keep us in the Customs Union or the Single Market then we would have to have no deal.”

Brexit. What May should do next. Replace Robbins with Davis – and prepare for No Deal.

Since she might not get an acceptable agreement, or indeed any at all, the Government must strain to get Ready for Day One, not Ready for Day 730.

Davis fights back

The Brexit Secretary has taken control of the Government’s dealings with Grieve – for the moment, anyway. Watch for further twists and turns.

Alex Morton: The EU negotiation. First, let’s use the velvet glove. But if that doesn’t work, the iron fist.

We need to be tough – without a deal, they should get no money from us, reduced troop levels in Eastern Europe, less help on refugee issues in the Mediterranean.
