Daily Mail: You'll get no exceptions! EU leaders tell Britain it must accept freedom of movement rules if it wants access to single market as they start plotting Brexit WITHOUT Cameron

* European leaders meet without Britain for first time at Brussels summit
* Agree Britain shouldn't have single market access without 'four freedoms'
* UK will have to accept open borders if it stays in tariff-free trading bloc
* EU Council President declares: 'There will be no single market a la carte'
* Downcast Angela Merkel met other EU leaders without Britain in Brussels
* They're fighting to stop EU from falling apart amid fears of Brexit contagion

Donald Tusk, president of the European Council, declared: 'There will be no single market a la carte.'

But in a sign of the tense negotiations to come between Brussels and the UK, Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said he did not 'rule out' securing a deal on freedom of movement.
