A BREXIT agreement reached by PM Boris Johnson and the European Union could face opposition from Brecon and Radnorshire’s Liberal Democrat MP.

Jane Dodds greeted the PM’s announcement this morning that he’d struck a "great new deal" with EU by saying she is "more determined than ever" to stop Brexit.

Ms Dodds, who is also the leader of the Welsh Liberal Democrats, said: "“It is remarkably clear that Boris Johnson’s deal would be bad for our economy, bad for our public services, and bad for our environment.“His deal will create a hard border down the Irish Sea, hurting Welsh farmers and businesses - as well as causing chaos at our ports. The deal is so bad even the DUP have said they won’t back it and no Welsh MP should be supporting it either."The next few days will set the direction of our country for generations, and I am more determined than ever to fight to stop Brexit and protect Wales’ place in Europe.“This deal must be put to the public, with the option to remain. When this deal comes before Parliament, I and my Liberal Democrat colleagues will do all we can to make sure we get a People’s Vote.”

The agreement between the PM and the EU must be backed by the European Parliament and the House of Commons where it is unclear if Mr Johnson’s deal can be passed with Northern Ireland’s DUP stating it cannot support it.

Three tweets from the Welsh Lib Dems indicated it will not support the deal and also repeated the party’s long held position that the deal should be put once more to the electorate via a referendum with an option to remain.

Ms Dodds had also shared tweets from the Welsh Lib Dem Twitter account stated a similar message including one that read: "This deal must be put to the public, with the option to remain. When this deal comes before Parliament, @DoddsJane and her @LibDems colleagues in Parliament will do all they can to make sure we get a People’s Vote."

Immediately following her victory in August’s Brecon and Radnorshire by-election Ms Dodds said she would go and find Mr Johnson and tell him a no-deal Brexit had to be taken off the table.

Since Ms Dodd’s election the Lib Dems have hardened their opposition to Brexit by adopting a policy to revoke Article 50, and remaining in the EU, should they win a majority at the next general election.Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson has told ITV News her party could support Mr Johnson's deal if it is then put to a confirmatory referendum, in which it would campaign to remain.

Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford said, on Twitter: "This deal does nothing to protect Welsh interests; let alone safeguard our economy and jobs.

"It would wrench us out of the single market and customs union and create new barriers to trade which would make Wales poorer."

The deal has however been welcomed by the Conservative leader in the Welsh Assembly.

Paul Davies AM said: "A fair and balanced deal has been reached between the UK and the EU, delivering on the outcome of the referendum in 2016. Boris Johnson promised a deal and he’s now delivered one. The people of Wales voted to leave and today’s news takes us one step closer to achieving that.

“This deal ends the uncertainty currently faced by Welsh businesses and communities, will allow us to take full advantage of the benefits that Brexit will offer and my Assembly colleagues and I welcome this news and are fully behind the Prime Minister.

The Country Land Business Association, CLA that represents some rural businesses, warned MPs should be cautious over opposing the deal.

CLA president Tim Breitmeyer said: "News of a deal will be warmly welcomed by Welsh farmers and rural businesses, many of whom were fearing the consequences of a No Deal scenario. The proposed deal finally provides us with some certainty, that could in turn help unlock much needed investment to get the rural economy moving again.

“Opposition MPs, many of whom have argued against a hard Brexit, should think very carefully before voting this deal down. One gets the sense that it’s This Deal or No Deal”.
