Tory Brexiteer Mark Francois today launched an extraordinary attack on the German head of Airbus for threatening to pull the firm out of the UK. Mr Francois' father Reginald was an engineer who served in the Royal Navy during the Second World War, and a minesweeper on D-Day. Interviewed on BBC New this afternoon, Mr Francois vented his anger at the intervention. However, asked whether he would stay in No11 if Mrs May backed no deal, Mr Hammond repeatedly dodged the question.
