"Can you name a single country that has negotiated a comprehensive free trade deal with the EU in less than a year?"
I asked Michael Gove this question 3 times. He didn't name one. Instead he said people were being "sceptical" and it is "feasible" a deal will be done by Dec 2020

WATCH: David Gauke was a Conservative minister 4 months ago. Today he told me: "The Conservative Party is wanting to take the country in a dangerous direction...abandoning its reputation for economic competence."
He's standing as an independent and now backs a second referendum.

I asked @DavidGauke why he doesn't join the @LibDems:
"I wish the Liberal Democrats well in this election, I hope that long-standing Conservatives look at the options and lend their support to the Liberal Democrats in many seats."

Michael Gove's argument is a deal can be done by Dec 2020 because:
"No country is closer to the EU at the moment in terms of its economic relationship than the UK, so securing a trade deal...is very different from the types of trade deals the EU has secured with other countries"
