Not really. I am not brilliant at politics. Are we coming out or staying in?
Are we talking simple terms, or Liz Truss terms?
no time limit on extention vote
No, they can't.
The vote today was just TIG, Lib Dems and SNP being arseholes, and trying to win some cheap points against Labour. By pushing it today they hurt the people’s vote cause, not helped it.
Wait, so what happens now? If that extension was rejected and no deal was rejected yesterday, how does that work?
So it's even more complicated now?

Don't ask.
that was the vote on having a limited extension, the main vote is now
Wait so we're in limbo now?
Edit: Never mind. Main vote coming up.

They don't want Mays deal, they don't want no deal and they don't want an extension for a 2nd referendum. What exactly are they after here? Other than personal political gain?
Unless someone stops or delays it within the next 15 days you're leaving.
Are they now in the lobbies for the Benn amendment? I turned on late.
I know. I don't think that it should have been brought today but the amount of labour MP's who broke ranks and voted against it means that it will be next to impossible to get it through the Commons.
With no deal.
Yep. The amendment to his amendment was close so this could be as well.
Edit: on the BBC parliament channel they have the amendment being voted on up on the screen when they are out voting.
Unless May's deal passes at the 3rd ( or 4th ) attempt.
Right hold on..
So the House of Commons has turned down 3 (or maybe 2?) deals presented by Theresa May.
Then the House of Commons turned down any possibility of a No Deal.
Now they're turning down any possibility of a second referendum?
So this is just a group of people who are standing up and saying something has to be done while voting against every possible action they've been presented with?
I could be way off.

EU were right British parliament is only able to agree on things against something but never in favour of anything.
Hell's bells. I really don't think it is a good idea been too cosy with the Trump.
No. Anything could still happen though so hold tight.
Just looks like a bunch of people trying to score political points off each other and hang the consequences for their electorate.
TIme to lube up.
I have just read my post. Being, I meant being.
Do they get paid extra to turn up for a votes or something?
It's all Parliamentary intrigue and plotting at the mo, @DomesticTadpole. Fascinating stuff for some of us weirdos.
They only turn up if there is money involved.
And drink plenty of fluids.
What will happen with NI and the border?It's all Parliamentary intrigue and plotting at the mo, @DomesticTadpole. Fascinating stuff for some of us weirdos.
Oh, no-one's agreed anything on that yet. No-one's agreed anything at all, except that we won't leave without a deal and we don't want Mrs May's deal. However, as it stands and unless the law is changed, we're leaving without a deal because Article 50 (which says we'll leave on 29 March) actually is the law and it hasn't been revoked.
These votes in Parliament at the moment aren't law.
That's to try to get Corbyn off the fence while Starmer, Cooper and Benn run the party.
It's been defeated.
Benn's amendment : Ayes 312 Noes 314
By 2, so close. Annoying.
So now we have Corbyn's rather lacklustre amendment.
State of them defeating the Benn amendment. Disgrace
We will know when they have time to think about it.
