New Year is a time to look ahead and in 2019 the UK will start a new chapter.

The Brexit deal I have negotiated delivers on the vote of the British people.

It gives us control over our borders, our money and our laws. It is good for jobs, protects our security and works for our whole UK.

In the next few weeks MPs will have an important decision to make. If Parliament backs the deal, Britain can turn a corner.

The referendum in 2016 was divisive but we all want the best for our country.

2019 can be the year we put our differences aside and move forward together, into a strong new relationship with our European neighbours and out into the world as a globally trading nation.

But important though Brexit is, it is not the only issue that counts. When each of us looks back on 2019, it will be the personal milestones that stand out.

Starting a new school, college or apprenticeship. Getting a job. Starting a business. Earning a pay rise. Buying a house, getting married or starting a family.

These are the things that matter most and by agreeing a good Brexit deal, we can focus our energy on those things.

Strengthening our economy and opening up new markets for our businesses to create new jobs and opportunities across the UK; building the houses our country needs so everyone can have a home of their own and transforming technical education so everyone gains the skills they need to get on.
