Letwin saying vote for deal in order to avoid no deal.

I think i would put it definitely vote against deal in order to avoid risk of no deal.

The first will pass.

Second one (timetable) very tight.

Hopefully it passes. This shambles can't continue.

Pass or fail, they are doomed. Hoist by their own petard.

Spanish Eyes · 22-10-2019 07:01PM

How many times on this journey have we been at this pass?

Honestly, So much for the UK being in control of everything.

bazermc · 22-10-2019 07:04PM

Division. Clear the lobbies.

Kermit.de.frog · 22-10-2019 07:04PM

Going to be close on the timetable!

id second that -

even if i was in favor of brexit i wouldnt be prepared to rush the thing through just so BJ isnt embarrassed by not leaving on 31st October

Id say

VOTE 1 - Narrow win
VOTE 2 - Solid but not substantial loss

For me question is whether BJ sticks to his guns - its insane and childish of him tbh

It's annoying me listening to Alister Campbell - moaning about the "border" in the Irish sea.

Of course a month a go he was all against a border on the island of Ireland - at all costs.

As long as it suits their remain agenda. Just using whatever the issue happens to be.

Spanish Eyes · 22-10-2019 07:10PM

Be interesting to see if the timetable passes. If it does, it is all over now.

IMO of course. The battle, bullying and brainwashing has succeeded. OK that's "Democracy" for you.

devnull · 22-10-2019 07:12PM

This is going to pass I think, second one is going to be tight I reckon.

Labour's Sarah Champion, Gareth Snell and Ruth Smeeth have voted with government, along with John Mann and Antoinette Sandbach who are independent.

A Dub in Glasgo · 22-10-2019 07:15PM

I will say it again, the method of voting in the HoC is a farce and they need to move with the times

Kermit.de.frog · 22-10-2019 07:16PM

Majority of 30 for second reading.

Mr.Nice Guy · 22-10-2019 07:16PM

Are we getting somewhere at last?

A Dub in Glasgo · 22-10-2019 07:16PM

329 v 299

liamtech · 22-10-2019 07:16PM

329 - For
299 - Against

Majority 30

Win for the GVT

now

THIS IS IT - This is the one

Will they or wont they - will he or wont he

PropJoe10 · 22-10-2019 07:17PM

Convincing win for the second reading. Now, the process of amending it will begin. Programme motion will be much closer, I'd say.

Kermit.de.frog · 22-10-2019 07:17PM

Twice the majority as was expected for the second reading.

Going to be really tight for the programme vote.

Itssoeasy · 22-10-2019 07:17PM

I know it’s a majority of 30 but it’s for a second reading which just means it’s going to move on the next stage.

Vote for timetable will tell. If that's a No, he's going to pull it and try to go for an election.

Itssoeasy · 22-10-2019 07:18PM

The DUP are sitting in the chamber and not moving.

TCDStudent1 · 22-10-2019 07:19PM

Been out of the loop today & y'day regards Brexit. Whats the programme motion?

devnull · 22-10-2019 07:19PM

DUP look to be abstaining.

Kermit.de.frog · 22-10-2019 07:19PM

Are DUP abstaining!?

They have not left the chamber.

Impossible - would they abstain on the 'precious union'?

If they do they will be ripped to shreds surely?

How much time they have to debate. He wants three days, some of them want up to 4 weeks.

Shelga · 22-10-2019 07:20PM

What does second reading mean? They have voted to agree to vote again??

I'm getting really confused, and I'm usually on top of all Brexit craziness

I know the next one, the programme motion, is the biggie, but again, what exactly does it mean?

Kermit.de.frog · 22-10-2019 07:20PM

DUP have left the chamber now, not abstaining.

PropJoe10 · 22-10-2019 07:21PM

DUP are going to vote now, it seems. Not sure why they'd abstain on this one.
