EPTAlso 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.

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. | ||

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. No deal doesn't need a vote >.< . | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

No-deal is what happens when parliament does nothing. It is the default state if nothing is agreed upon. | ||

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. ;-) | ||

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. | ||

The council is now running around trying to convince everyone to allow the UK to participate in the next EU elections if necessary. | ||
