Has she had the whip withdrawn?

she doesn't get kicked out, today's vote was NOT being treated as a confidence vote. poor excuse for a rebel.

what happens when the boss takes your whip
― president of deluded fruitcakes anonymous (silby), Wednesday, 4 September 2019 17:02 (four years ago) link
The boss can’t tell you what to do but if there’s an election called you don’t get to stand as a conservative mp again - which means certain loss & no access to party activists or funding

More trouble for Boris. Lots of Tory backbenchers in a 1922 Committee meeting with the PM now just cheered Edward Leigh and Damian Green for speaking up for the 21 rebels, and booed Dan Kawczynski for attacking them.— Tom Newton Dunn (@tnewtondunn) September 4, 2019

Nobody is certain. I think the amendment that may have passed means MPs have to another vote May's WA before Johnson has to request an extension

It's certainly Skinnock's plan but it looked to me like the amendment would have been voted down, God knows if this is deliberate or incompetent and who's behind it

a cunning parliamentary heist no doubt, but the WA is still going to get voted down so ultimately futile.

It means that when/if the government has to ask for an extension, it has to say that the purpose of the extension is to pass May's bill.

Commons clerk:
I’m not sure what this amendment actually does. It attaches a purpose for the desired extension, but it doesn’t actually compel the Government (or anyone else for that matter) to actually introduce a Bill.Am I missing something? https://t.co/5ROz1patdx— Graeme Cowie (@woodstockjag) September 4, 2019

just had massive row with my French gilet-jaune father-in-law who literally was like 'a deal? why do you need a deal? what deal are you talking about? that's all bullshit, the PEOPLE have decided' - he's very anti-EU and his lip was quivering and he was being a complete asshole to me about it and what could i say, my wife is sitting there horrified, and I'm like, i live here, this is important to me, if we don't have a deal there will be real economic problems and he's like "stop, stop, no, that's all lies". he says Europe is trying to "humiliate" the UK by making it beg. for a deal. which he has just said is unnecessary. i mentioned that the EU actually did offer a deal, which they negotiated with theresa may's government and he just said "that's not true." it's just impossible to speak to him because there is no shared set of facts.
