How the Cabinet is bitterly divided over Brexit with ministers battling each other to influence trade deal
The Cabinet will start discussing what they want from a trade deal within weeks
THERESA MAY has secured a deal to move Brexit talks forward - but now she has to unite her Cabinet behind a trade deal.
Senior ministers insist they all back the PM's basic red lines - quitting the single market and customs union, and leaving the European court.
But within the Cabinet there is a wide range of different views, from soft Brexit supporters to the committed Eurosceptics.
The divisions are likely to become ever more stark as ministers work out how much EU regulation Britain should agree to adopt in order to boost trade.
MAY'S REMAINERS
Philip Hammond: The Chancellor has drawn the anger of Brexiteers by emphasising the dangers of quitting the EU instead of the benefits.
He is keen to strike a deal which prioritises the needs of business - even if that keeps Britain tied closely to Brussels.
Amber Rudd: The Home Secretary helped lead the Remain campaign during the EU referendum and is still seen as pro-European.
As the minister in charge of national security, she is concerned about loosening the close co-operation on crime-fighting between Britain and Europe.
Damian Green: The First Secretary of State is the only Cabinet minister who openly admits he would vote Remain in a second EU referendum.
He is likely to push the Cabinet towards close alignment with the EU for fear of destabilising the economy.
Jeremy Hunt: The Health Secretary has been converted to the Brexit cause, but is set to argue that the NHS is reliant on strong links with the rest of Europe.
Any deal which makes it harder for hospitals to get a reliable supply of medication will be fiercely resisted by Mr Hunt.
David Mundell: The Scottish Secretary's top priority is seeing off the SNP and avoiding the threat of Scottish independence.
Nationalists are keen to see different standards apply across the UK, as a prelude to the country's break-up - Mr Mundell will be careful not to give them any ammunition.
BREXIT BOOSTERS
Boris Johnson: The Foreign Secretary sees himself as the guardian of the Brexit flame and wants a deal which will boost the UK's place in the world.
He is keen to cast off restrictive EU rules as quickly as possible, so will push for divergence from the European status quo.
Michael Gove: The Environment Secretary has been drawing attention to the way EU law dictates how Britain can run its farming and conservation.
He is adamant that the UK must quit the Common Fisheries Policy as soon as we leave the EU in 2019, rather than keeping the same rules during a transition period.
Liam Fox: The International Trade Secretary needs Britain to cut EU ties quickly to make his job worthwhile.
Dr Fox wants to start cutting trade deals around the world from 2019 and will be furious if he has to wait any longer to sign agreements with the likes of the US and Japan.
Andrea Leadsom: The Leader of the House challenged Theresa May for the Tory leadership, and will protest against any signs of Brexit backsliding.
MOST READ IN POLITICS
This weekend she urged the PM to "take back control", a hint she will be angry at any capitulation to Brussels.
David Davis: The Brexit Secretary, who is running the whole process, insists cutting new trade deals around the world is a priority.
That suggests he will push for a divergence from EU regulations, allowing the UK to accept a range of goods from new trading partners.
