Are You Watching The Vote?

[Bobbisox1]

In the H.O.C, I am

[jim360]

Yes. But there's a few minutes to go until anything interesting happens. There will be a few ex-Tories in about ten minutes, though.

I wonder if Theresa May will be among them?

[Bobbisox1]

Yes Jim, I wonder, I bet there's a few squeaky bums, lol

[Gromit]

Yes.
All very entertaining.

[-SharonA-]

I've heard one MP say is all he's done is reheated Mays deal!!

[jim360]

328-301 in favour of holding the debate on the MPs' bill.

Light the blue touchpaper and retire.

[ichkeria]

That’s quite a big margin. The last vote was carried by just one.

[Peter Pedant]

boris having a hissy fit
I am not sure why - he has made no attempt to unify the country

more - no deal Brexit and anyone who disagrees can sad off
and alot of people have said - sad off !

[Davemano]

The rebels have tipped the balance.

[ToraToraTora]

if only they'd show that gumption for our side.

//he has made no attempt to unify the country//

How could he over a binary issue such as this? You can't change people's minds on issues of deep conviction and consequence, and after the referendum one or other group was going to be sipped off big time. As far a national "unity" is concerned the best you can hope for is magnanimity in victory and graciousness in defeat. I've seen not enough of the former and none at all of the latter in the last three years.

[Peter Pedant]

I always knew Boris was a bad 'un when he turned over on his day bed and said into his pillow

oh sod British Industry

you cant run a country on a few Latin epithets and tousled hair - even if you went to Eton

[Old_Geezer]

"he has made no attempt to unify the country"

There is zero chance of that. Either you believe in delivering the referendum result without excuses, or you don't. There's no unifying until we're properly out and it's in the past.

[jim360]

It will be a long time indeed before it's in the past. It's another of the great Brexit myths that No Deal ends anything.

[Old_Geezer]

It ends our membership.

[Gromit]

Funny watching the useless Leadsome woman humiliate herself.
Interviewer: Have Clarke, Hammond, Soames (etc) been deselected?
Leadsome: They will be given a second chance.
Interviewer (Later): No.10 have confirmed they are all ex-Tories.

[jim360]

So would the Withdrawal Agreement, OG.
