David Davis: Brexit bill to "ensure continuity"

Theresa May has appealed for unity from pro-EU Conservative MPs as the Commons is set to debate the government's Brexit repeal bill on Thursday.

Mrs May has said there will be proper scrutiny, but some MPs fear it will give ministers sweeping new powers.

Speaking on the Andrew Marr show, Brexit Secretary David Davis said this was "nonsense" and all Tories should back it as it ensured "continuity".
