UK finance minister Hammond speaking on ITV 2 Oct
- I back the PM in what is a complex negotiation with the EU
- Johnson's position on Brexit is well known
- we all owe the PM loyalty in the cabinet
- Brexit has split Britain
- everything beyond the EU negotiations in Brussels is just noise
- no one wants to see economy disrupted by Brexit process
- the more we can show unity the stronger our negotiating position with EU is
- the challenge now for us is to move the Brexit talks decisively fwd
