Westminstenders: Happy Brexit Day!

Happy Brexit day!

Oh wait. No its not.

May looks like she is going to bring the MVIII (Meaningful Vote 3) tomorrow minus the PD (political declaration).

The legalities of this are questionable should the vote pass. The MV needs to have an accompanying PD, by law under the terms of the Withdrawal Act.

That's kind of irrelevant given the likelihood of the deal passing anyway. The DUP have apparently negotiated a 'Stormont Lock' to get more assurances, only for them promptly to say there's no chance of them voting for the deal anyway.

The vote is all about Labour v Conservatives and where we can lay the blame for no deal in two weeks time.

Meanwhile we are already into a prolonged Tory Leader Election with all its glorious gentlemanly behaviour.

Anyway its time for extra time and national riots for delaying Brexit.

'But she cannot bind her successor - @BorisJohnson? @DominicRaab? - on this'

Exactly! Once May is gone whichever god awful Tory twat takes her place will just plough ahead as they want.

For reference.
MVI - 230 defeat
MVII - 149 deafeat
MVII.5 - ???

May needs 75 switchers.

If it's a narrow win surely it's going to be torture getting the WAIB through?

Why is parliament live behind by a minute or so?

AutumnCrow · 29/03/2019 14:29

A final bit of damage by May there, insulting and flailing against MPs.

wheresmymojo · 29/03/2019 14:30

...and even if this passes. If there's no agreement on the PD then we'll be in the same place anyway won't we?

Icantreachthepretzels · 29/03/2019 14:30

I don't think I've been this nervous since election night. Is there any telling which lobby is the most crowded?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 29/03/2019 14:30

I feel rather sick too.

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 29/03/2019 14:30

Oh fuck. I don't need to get my kids right?

prettybird · 29/03/2019 14:30

While we are chewing our nails, I'll ask a cat question: am I the only big softy who can't possibly make the bed while the cats are comfortably ensconced? Blush

Is it really Bercowstie? Maybe it's a security thing.

RedToothBrush · 29/03/2019 14:31

This is the journalist sweepstake:

John Rentoul @JohnRentoul
Sweepstake has closed. Average of 216 entries 285 votes for the govt, implying defeat by 64 if no abstentions

If Mogg has gone Aye then I think it's an aye.

Yamayo · 29/03/2019 14:31

I really feel sick...

tobee · 29/03/2019 14:32

So much for sticking with the DUP Jacob you wankah.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 29/03/2019 14:32

I can't make beds or hoover if it means disturbing my cats.

Songsofexperience · 29/03/2019 14:32
