Thankfully - the customs amendment put forward by the Remainer MPs lost. Meaning we will not join any kind of customs union should no meaningful deal not be reached by Jan 2019.

Depends Mick, got to go to the Lords next, where there is a remain majority. Then it'll go back to the Commons for more Govt. torture. Isn't our system wonderful ?

It will lose as it should - the democratic result of leaving the corrupt EU must be followed.

Re: Brexit Discussion (New thread-Follow First Post Rules!)

Wouldn't have changed the result but the Tories broke pairing tonight: https://twitter.com/tnewtondunn/stat...03110794186753

Jo Swinson was paired with Brandon Lewis but, after she was told that, he voted anyway.

Quite a low thing to do.

TBH Pairing helps out the Government a lot. Sometimes Government ministers cannot be in the chamber, especially the PM and Foreign Secretary, so no reason now Labour can't refuse to honour in those cases. So either the PM and others need to attend every vote or risk losing it.

Re: Brexit Discussion (New thread-Follow First Post Rules!)

A No-Confidence motion in the Government nearly came to fruition earlier nearly because of 12 Remainer Tory MPs no surprises for guessing who they were, but it took 4 Rebel Brexiteer Labour MPs to save May's skin tonight.

Those 12 Tory Remainers were prepared to bring their own government down.

Between Mick’s “corrupt EU” and my “Brussels turds” we seem to have an invincible definition of what we are leaving.

Repeating that people are turds over and over again is "invincible"? Jeez .. .. Most people left this behaviour behind in the playground ...

Brandon Lewis later apologised and said it was a Whips' error. In this Coalition of Chaos, it is unfortunately quite possible.

Re: Brexit Discussion (New thread-Follow First Post Rules!)

Today is the day May has to survive. Boris will be delivering his resignation speech before PMQT.
There has been a creeping campaign going on, is this the culmination?
Interesting times ahead today.

Just like some Brexiteers...

Furious Brexiteer MPs are demanding a vote of no confidence in Theresa May over her soft Brexit blueprint.

The Prime Minister will face her MPs tomorrow night at a meeting of the 1922 Committee, the group of all Conservative backbenchers.

Morley and Outwood MP Andrea Jenkyns was the first to go public with a warning she would sign a letter to party chiefs demanding a vote if the details of the deal were as bad as she thought.

And veteran Brexiteer Sir Bill Cash warned today a contest could be unstoppable because of the level of unhappiness at the Prime Minister's plan.

End of Theresa May? Brexiteer MP 'warns of no confidence vote' in Prime Minister

Theresa May could be ousted as PM as a Brexiteer MP warns of a no confidence vote being tabled against the Prime Minister.

Quote:
Pro-Brexit Tory MPs have reportedly warned Theresa May she faces a possible vote of no confidence if she concedes to rebel MPs over a customs union with the EU...

...The Times reports sources close to the eurosceptic European Research Group saying they could force a confidence vote if the Prime Minister gives way on the customs union.
