Isle of Wight MP Bob Seely on Brexit: 'You can't always get what you want'

In a tweet posted this morning, Mr Seely compared his reaction to the deal to the Rolling Stones hit, You Can't Always Get What You Want.

But, Mr Seely continues, 'you just might find you get what you need'.

Trying to be optimistic about the EU Deal this morning. At the moment, this is what I am thinking. https://t.co/z3AJQh3NTd You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometime, you just might find you get what you need ... 😬

In a series of retweets, Mr Seely calls the Brexit secretary Dominic Raab's resignation a 'big call' and agrees with a tweet stating 'Deal in serious trouble. PM in serious trouble'.

Since then, work and pensions secretary Esther McVey has also resigned — one in a series of cabinet members to resign over Brexit.

It is increasingly unlikely Prime Minister Theresa May will be able to push the deal through the House of Commons.

The County Press will publish Mr Seely's official statement on the matter later today.
