BORIS Johnson’s oven-ready deal is finally roasting away on the shelf, after MPs overwhelmingly voted in its favour.

Finally concluding what has been a long and tension-addled four years since the 2016 referendum, the Tory government’s EU-UK trade deal has been officially accepted in the Commons, marking an historical moment in Britain’s history, and ensuring a prosperous, independent and sovereign future.
