This week, all the legislation going through the Chamber is Brexit related and normally dealt with in Committee. But this was meant to be recess week and many MPs are not here. After routine matters first thing, I entered the Chamber just after 1130 to participate in Health Questions. I had wanted to take the opportunity to ask the Health Secretary for a meeting to discuss the closure of beds at Portland Community Hospital. The beds were closed because there were not enough qualified staff to run them. I am due to meet the new CEO of the Trust in charge of our community hospitals this Friday. Ron Shields stood down a few weeks ago. A little later, the Business Secretary, Greg Clark, an arch Remainer, made a Statement about Honda's announcement that it will close its Swindon plant with the loss of 3,500 jobs. The company's CEO made it perfectly clear in a press conference that it was nothing to do with Brexit, but Clark could not resist trying to make a link. The loss of these jobs is indeed extremely sad for the employees, but, once out of the EU, the opportunities for the UK are unlimited. There is no reason on earth why we cannot make this country even more attractive to invest in and I am sure that is exactly what will happen. I did catch the Speaker's eye again and asked Clark to agree that it was vital for the UK to be able to strike trade deals around the world, to generate the prosperity we seek. His answer was not surprising and along the lines of, well so long as we can continue trading with our existing partners on current terms. Yes, of course we want to do that, but that is up to the EU, and right now there are no signs they'd agree to it. Why would they when they want to punish us for daring to want to leave! We need to hold our nerve, weather a bumpy period, which there would be if we left with no deal, and re-organise our economy to meet changing circumstances. This is not beyond the scope of our great nation, it really isn't. I attended two private and Brexit-related meetings in the afternoon, after which we were dropped to a one-line.
