Re: Brexit
Quote:
Theresa May makes three commitments:
1. "We will hold a second meaningful vote by Tuesday 12 March at the latest."
2. "If the government has not won a meaningful vote by Tuesday 12 March, then it will...table a motion to be voted on by Wednesday 13 March asking this House if it supports leaving the EU without a withdrawal agreement...."The UK will only leave without a deal on 29 March if there is explicit consent in the House for that outcome."
3. If MPs reject a no-deal Brexit, "The government will, on 14 March, bring forward a motion on whether Parliament wants to seek a short, limited extension to Article 50."
If MPs vote for this, May says, she will seek an extension from the EU. She does not want to see this happen, she adds, saying "our absolute focus" should be on approving a deal before 29 March.
She says an extension to Article 50 would not take no-deal off the table.
