It's going to pass.

Aww i thought this was tonight and hence i'd miss it

Developing a really murderous Pavlovian response to megaphones and shouting

History may yet see Theresa May as the great political schemer she isn't.

Sheer Machiavellian

SV it's unlike you to troll us like this. Brexit makes people do funny things tho'

Makes people do hilarious things

I enjoy watching members of the public kvetching about the self-serving crapness of MPs like they just found out about politics this morning

Lab benches all stern, Tory front bench smug apart from May. Looks like a loss for govt tho

Lol

Aye 286
No 344

fourth time lucky, i guess?

58 she's getting there

RIP

Pundits estimating No by 40-50 votes xp

I think MV6 might just squeak it.

Guys she's getting closer, she should offer to set herself on fire if MV3.1 passes, i think she can get there

i'd be tempted to back it in those circumstances tbf

:D

xp

Told you there weren’t enough Labour votes. Knew she was going to lose when I saw her jacket - she didn’t bother wasting a good outfit on yet another loss.

Oh wow Vince Cable's still alive

LMAO

Not even close enough to have justified the hype imo

"I fear we are reaching the limits of this process in this house."

(brings out tommy gun)

lol @ racist christmas being cancelled

Usual link for votes when they get updated.

Lol.

Labour: General election now!
SNP: general election now!
TIG: people’s vote now!

Stet, what’s the mood like there?!

I mean if European elections are a problem can't we just have a GE on that day and combine the two? Kind of like when the African WC qualifying rounds count for the Nations Cup too.

If that’s to happen, the latest they can call one is 25 working days before the election.

Only five labour MPs voted with the government - Kevin Barron, Rosie Cooper, Caroline Flint, John Mann and Jim Fitzpatrick.

Independent MPs: Ian Austin, Frank Field, Lady Harmon and Stephen Lloyd (ex LD) voted with the government.

In view of the rejection of the Withdrawal Agreement by the House of Commons, I have decided to call a European Council on 10 April. #Brexit

34 Tories rebelled - weird mix of wets and hardliners.

May:

"On Monday, this House will continue the process to see if there is a stable majority for a particular alternative version of our future relationship with the EU. Of course, all of the options will require the withdrawal agreement."

Jeez, can’t she take a hint.

What a shambles

just fuckin revoke article 50 already, we clearly can't be trusted to do this properly ('properly')

her darting glances sideways like gollum when a point against her hits are really starting to carry more than a hint of actual madness

Fair fucks to the Labour whipping operation, though.

Put the screws to em “jezza”

count dankula MEP

a 2019 election has gone as short as 8/11 - 4/6, it will probably be 1/100 by tonight.

Re: Labour whipping - Ronnie Campbell & Dennis Skinner both abstained rather than voting with government.

What does bantz logic dictate happens Monday

brexit

JC and Johnny Mac obvs coordinated outfits over WhatsApp today.

Xxp The mood is amazing. You could have heard a gnat fart when the tellers were standing ambiguously. Among the politicians everyone seems v upbeat apart from May herself. The ERG look delighted because this pushes towards the abyss, they think, the Tory leadership candidates look delighted.

Corbyn and McDonnell and Abbot sat on the front bench talking long after the chamber had emptied. Watson and Eagle stood nearby looking v grave.

There is a gang of gammon in leisure wear crowding near Steve Baker in the lobby.

I don’t know about you guys, but at the exact moment the vote was taking place all the threads doubled up in my Zing. It looks like parallel realities have been set in motion. Someone somewhere is seizing back some kind of control.

How did ilx fave Stephen Bush look?

Yeah I'm walking outta Downing Street
And they spit in my face
My front bench are dopes
And my back bench is a waste
The Grand Wizards in there
All look like Bill Cash
I've got three meaningful votes
But not a single one passed
When the whip comes down, yeah
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down
When the whip comes down

May isn't quitting then?
