Theresa May is the stock to short, if you can find anyone who’ll loan her

MPs have debated the final stage of the EU Withdrawal Bill before a vote later this evening approving the passage of the legislation to the Lords.

Dozens of MPs made contributions but the most significant came from Justine Greening, the former Education Secretary, who made her first intervention since leaving the Government last week.

She warned that Brexit will “not be sustainable” if it does not work for young people, adding that future generations of MPs could seek to “improve or undo” what the current cohort implements.

“The bottom line is that looking ahead if Brexit doesn't work for young people in our country, in the end it will not be sustainable,” she said.

The debate came after Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn closed in the Commons at Prime Minister’s Questions over the dramatic collapse of the construction and services company Carillion.

The Labour leader used all six of his questions to ask about the issue, having previously called for the directors of the failed firm to give back their multi-million pound bonuses.
