Westminstenders: Indicative Crossiants

[RedToothBrush]

Tomorrow the Indicative debate starts at 3pm

The Speaker will choose options to go to vote.

Vote at 7pm for yes or no for each option.

7.30pm The SI debate on extension followed by vote.

Announcement of the indicative vote sometime between 8.15pm and 9.30pm

Meanwhile the DUP have indicated they would prefer a long delay (and presumably EU elections by default) rather than May's deal, in a strange twist of Brexit.

@bbclaurak
25 Tory resisters have now definitely changed their minds and will back the deal

They had the vote around 7pm..wonder why is taking so long to announce it..

But with no DUP would that actually make any difference? The 25

They arent voting on the wa tonight Though are they? So if we're already saying its going to pass what is the point in the indicative votes?

I like Kirsty Blackman. She is in my Fantasy Cabinet.

Kirsty gets my love as well.

Someone asked whether if there were by elections, Labour could get in by stealth. May or whoever could still govern as a minority administration, but this would be vulnerable to a Vote of no Confidence which if lost would lead to a GE.

Will we even get the result today?

Î never before really appreciated the phrase "throwing their toys out of the pram"

These so-called Brexit "revolutionaries" (not the ordinary Leaver) really are tantrumming toddlers,
wanting to thrown away their toys of Tory membership, the HoC

Problem is: they want to throw everyone else's toys out of the pram too

No

The WA is plan A. Indicative votes are May's missing Plan B. You know the one the EU realised she didn't have.

Results expected around 9pm.

Kirsty stole my boyfriend and snogged him in the school corridor without the need to breathe, it seemed they were always at it. haha.

Arlene Foster saying they cannot support the deal.

Could be abstaining?

What will they do when Saturday rolls around and nobody riots? Once it's proved that extension hasn't actually caused an uproar (because if it was going to - it would have happened when it was announced) what fig leaf will they hide behind next as to why we can't have the EU elections?

I think I've got to go to bed... see you all on the other side (AKA the thread which starts in about 20 mins)

Is it really still plan A? Fuck sake.

Mark Francois is not in my Fantasy Cabinet.

Oh god it's Mark WWII Francis up now.

Hoping I can be back in front of the tv by 9

BigChoc get what you're saying, but I can afford to gamble £25 so will take my chances. If all candidates are terrible, which I fully expect, I'll vote for whoever has the least chance of winning a majority next time.

Right...back to HoC. To Mark Francois

It was me @Peregrina that's interesting, so probably wouldn't last for any length of time as a proper minority government

Mark Francois thinks heresy and apostasy are the same thing.

Why are they all using language they're not in control of to try to sound like Jacob Rees-Knob?

@skydavidblevins
BREAK: DUP leader Arlene Foster tells @SkyNews her party “regrets” that it is unable to support the Withdrawal Agreement while it “poses a threat to the integrity of the UK.” #Brexit

So if we're already saying its going to pass what is the point in the indicative votes?

It's not going to pass. The DUP have said no and a significant number of the ERG are still against.

Did I ever mention how dead the WA is?
