Customs Union option was a Tory MP deal btw wasn't the Union that Corbyn wanted so that getting very close was interesting.

Also as mentioned before, Labour have MPs from majority leave cities/towns so they would lose their seat if voted against. Which again is the issue.

I suspect the chances of no deal have gone back up, god I hope this process is all over in a couple of weeks. Ideally no deal from my point of view but i'll take May's deal if it comes to it.

Nothing was supposed to get a majority tonight. That was never the idea, that's why they voted earlier today to reserve Monday for stage 2 of the voting process. Movement will start to happen only when options are starting to get knocked of the table, which will be on Monday. Today was just to get an indication which options should make it into the next round. We'll have to wait for Letwin to announce just exactly how he'll proceed and with what options.

People were free to vote for as many things as they like tonight I doubt removing any options (and we all know the speaker will remove the no deal options) is going to make any difference. Monday is a long time away, Parliament could easily be prorogued by then (there is growing talk of a general election) or May's deal could pass on Friday.

Removing options is not going to make a difference, but talking is going to make a difference. You're acting as if it's impossible for J and M to get 20-40 MPs to change their mind yet MV3 could pass after losing by 180 last time. And your ideal no deal by 240 today.

It needs support, don't be intentionally obtuse. No deal can't happen without parliament letting it happen.

Bercow will pick motions based on the numbers tonight. If no-deal doesn't make it, it's because it didn't get enough votes(and it didn't). Parliament could be prorogued at any time and if May's deal passes then there's obviously no need for indicative votes. These votes aren't used to get a preferred outcome, it's a process(!) towards breaking the deadlock. If there's no deadlock, they won't go ahead. Many here seem to have misunderstood today's events completely.

As the only way now to gain the ability to control our trade and large parts of our economic policy. All of the deals on offer tie us in some way to the EU customs union or single market regulations.

It can happen as long as Parliament refuses to revoke article 50, time will simply run out without anything being agreed and we will default into no deal.

April 13th, or May 23e EU treaties stop applying to the UK whether the UK likes it or not and whether the UK courts consider it constitutional or not.
Parliament has to agree to a deal (and the EU accept it) before that time or they need to revoke art 50.

No-deal is what happens when parliament does nothing. It is the default state if nothing is agreed upon.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

The freedom to negotiate worse deals than being part of the EU would give you and lower the quality standards of products and services. Not to mention the fact if you intend to gain access to the EU's market in the future, you will still have to abide by the regulations. Just great. ;-)

The process is pretty clear.
May,s deal has to be accepted and since arguing didn't do the job they are now voting (non binding) on alternatives to make clear that mays deal isn't that bad in the end seeing the alternatives.

This is a 'win' for May for sure. No clear alternative and the closest ones are 'not Brexit' so she can appeal to the No-deal crowd that her deal is the best option for leaving and that voting No will lead to an even softer or no Brexit at all.

And before that EU treaties were set to stop applying to the UK on March 29. The only time limit here is the patience of member states. The council is now running around trying to convince everyone to allow the UK to participate in the next EU elections if necessary.

I don't think you'll find a majority in UK parliament for delaying Brexit by a year or more. which is what the EU would require to accept the UK staying and holding an EU election.

What a perfect example of Entmoot. Five days after the extension and zero decisions are made. More than 1000 days after the referendum... The parliament is refusing the deal, the no deal outcome as well as every other alternative. If I was paying taxes in that country, I would have expected them to not leave that building, until a final decision is made.
