No we didn't.

PM to make previously unscheduled statement to Commons at 1530.

PM's statement is followed by a business statement from the Leader of the House, Andrea Leadsom.
And after that, a statement from Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay on Article 50.

Re: Brexit
Maybe it's not the shambles that we think it is.
Let's go back to the referendum result, the one where the public voted to leave the EU.
After the result was in, Government, Business and Financial sectors should have started to make preparations for leaving the EU . . including the so called 'hard brexit'.
Instead they all sat around scratching their heads, looking uncomfortable and muttering 'well that didn't go how we thought it would'.
Then some bright spark decided the best way to deal with it was to fudge, obfuscate, manipulate, and spread dissent so that it all decended into a farce that would end with no brexit at all.

May's instinct has always been to delay problems rather than grasp the nettle, so delaying until the new year would be entirely in keeping with what we know about her

Re: Brexit
A delay will just bring more arm twisting without any chance of success of course.
