Conservative MP Nicky Morgan and Labour MP Yvette Cooper have tabled a Finance Bill amendment limiting the government's spending power should a no-deal Brexit situation occur, potentially bringing about a scenario similar to the current US federal government shutdown. Parliament needs to make sure there are opportunities to stop the country reaching the cliff edge by accident. The amendment is backed by Conservatives such as Sir Oliver Letwin and Sarah Wollaston, as well as Labour's Hilary Benn. In an interview with Sky News, Mr Corbyn said that he would not support any attempt at "scaremongering" over Brexit.
