MPs back the Government to formally start EU withdrawal

MPs have voted to trigger Article 50 by the end of March next year as Labour attempts to force Theresa May to reveal her plan for Brexit.

Some 461 MPs vote in favour of a proposal to force the Government to stick to its own deadline for triggering the mechanism that starts the process for Britain to leave the European Union.

The move came after Labour proposed a motion that called on the Government into revealing its Brexit plan.

Ms May accepted the motion but added the amendment regarding Article 50, which the Labour leadership decided to support.

But 89 MPs, including 23 Labour MPs, voted against the motion saying it was too fast and would put pressure on Ms May to opt for Hard Brexit – meaning an end to freedom of movement and losing access to the single market.

Green MP Caroline Lucas accused the Labour party of failing into a "Tory trap of binding (it) to supporting the invoking of article 50 by March, which is an unrealistic and increasingly arbitrary date".

Some have reacted with outrage at the rebellion with the Conservative party's official Twitter account tweeting the names of the individual Labour MPs who voted against it, accusing them of not respecting the referendum result and saying the party is "out of touch with ordinary working people".

The vote was part of an Opposition day debate meaning it was not binding but it has been viewed as a symbolic victory for those who believe the Government should be more transparent about their plans for Brexit.

London to lose status as 'gateway to Europe' for banks

One of Germany’s top banking regulators has warned that London could lose its status as “gateway to Europe” for the banking sector after Britain quits the European trading bloc. Andreas Dombret, who is an executive board member for the Bundesbank—Germany’s central bank—told a private meeting of German businesses and banks earlier this week in Frankfurt that even if banking rules were “equivalent” between the UK and the rest of the EU, that was still “miles away from [Britain having] access to the single market”, the BBC reports.

Brexit is making FTSE 100 executives richer

Pay packages of many FTSE 100 chief executive officers are partly tied to how well share prices are doing rather than the CEO’s performance -- and some stocks are soaring. ritish equities got a boost since the June vote because the likes of Rio Tinto, Smiths Group and WPP generate most sales abroad and earn a fortune when they convert these revenues back into the weakened pound. Sterling’s fall also made UK stocks more affordable for overseas investors.
