Their preferred option will still be to crash us out next week. I’m sure they’ll be looking for ways to do just that
I worry about this. That **** might just have some snidey little tactic in mind.

Probably got her Nuremberg Rally themed love eggs in.
Let’s see what stunts the weaselly blonde cockwomble and his pet psychopath have got planned next.

He'll have to agree to whatever extension the EU offer now.
The only trick left that I can see, is for him to call a VONC in himself. That would be... Novel.

The Labour enablers should be ashamed of themselves
Indeed they've just voted for the hardest possible Brexit bar a no deal
The hard rights wet dream come true, and just ensured Johnson victory at the next GE, unbelievable really
It’s actually got to the point where you have to wonder whether there’s a point to there even being a Labour Party any more.
If that’s what it’s for. Enabling the agenda of the far right
The Lib Dem’s will have picked up a hefty chunk of voters tonight
You're missing the point chaps, boris now has to accept an extension (if they offer it) from the EU (Benn act)
Parliament now have the time to rip bojos deal to shreds via amendments.
Tonight was all about boris /Cummings creating a false sense of emergency to attempt get thier unscrutinised (highly complex, (I wonder why? )) deal through.
Parliament is sovereign, don't forget... This is surely what the brexiters want. Deciding our own future for ourselves PMSL, 😀
But if EU refuse extension it is either revoke or no deal on 31st of October.
EU have said they are waiting to hear from BJ.
Much better to shoot down the deal, it’s an uncertain proposition as to which amendments will be voted on and then passed. Enabling the far right should not be the purview of the Labour Party.

Unless you are running scared of racist constituents.

See above.

I dont believe it was. A cursory look at the votes shows, if it was, there was a hell of a rebellion.

Who will do as he's damn well told by Parliament and the courts.
He's not a dictator, and neither is Cummings! As much as they'd like to think so.
Tusk said EU will agree extension till the end of January.
Will Bojo resign, or die in a ditch?

Prit-stick Patel?, she certainly looks like she’s chewing on one

Well if you're only interested in Brexit and confused about what tonight's vote was about then yes you may have a slight point.
Don't make me laugh about the Lib dems.
Indeed they’ve just voted for the hardest possible Brexit bar a no deal
Then you misunderstood the vote.
It was not a vote for Brexit, it was a vote for the second reading of the current deal.
The state of it in here.
There's no guarantee whatsoever that this could be amended away, indicative votes showed no majority for anything & even closest- customs union , looks less like now.
Also Johnson goes into forthcoming election claiming to have got a Brexit deal where May couldn't, this is a huge gift to him, delay plays into his narrative too.
Putting self interest ahead of the greater good? There’s a natural home for them where they really belong in the Tories.
Well said.
By the sounds of the coverage from parliament, a fair number of labour MP’s are going to vote with the government tonight. I think its absolutely insane that they’re actually going to support a far right wing project which hands a Tory government the power to do away with workers rights and whatever else they fancy
Yup. These would be the people you claimed were far left Trots, who turned out to be Blairite centrists.
It was not a vote for Brexit, it was a vote for the second reading of the current deal.
Correct, some of the Labour rebels will have used it as an opportunity to get a free hit to help them in an election - however numbers probably there for deal. Question Johnson faces is whether to go for an election (one line bill with SNP help to secure majority) or whether to agree timetable with Labour and go for deal in mid to late November. My guess is Corbyn prefers the latter as Brexit will be partially neutralised in the election, no idea what Johnson will do.
I don't think an election is on the cards before a 2nd ref now.
It's going to get scrappy in parliament though.
The EU will just sit back raising thier eyebrows, they are not in any rush.
A 9 MTH extension just to watch Marc Francois explode ?

It would be more entertaining than a lot of stuff on TV.
I'm in. Is it a box set on Netflix?
Marc Francois explode ?
He was in the army you know. He makes things explode not the other way round.

They've been irrelevant up here for a long time now, to be honest.
Quite sad really.
Johnson owes those Labour MPs a big favour now. They’ve bought themselves a few votes in their own seats, but have lost other Labour candidates more votes then they probably care to think about. The Conservative Party has been thrown a bone today.
I dunno, corbyn might have been quite astute here by allowing a free vote on the withdrawal agreement.
It's allowed a time table extension for amendments.
And the amendments will come.
Then it will get proper messy.
Which is a sad state of affairs but things look to moving in the best direction for the UK. Hopefully.
Looks like a GE is on before Xmas.
Does BJ needs to be elected in same constituency he promised he would lay down in front of bulldozers?

Ahh but he’s succeeded in getting a deal they said couldn’t be done and he removed the backstop that was so evil.
He’s still fighting the Brexit cause against parliament won’t let the people have what they voted for.
He’s a true patriot Brit hero.

Get Brexit done!!!
Now try and come up with a campaign against that your going to have to work hard 🙁
He did just try to cut Northern Ireland out of the nation.
You think the Gammons give a toss about NI???

“they’re nothing but blind fascists, brought up on hate and given lives to waste.”
Exactly, the fact that he's negotiated a frontstop rather than a backstop matters not to them.
He will call it a victory & they'll lap it up

By ‘Gammons’ do you mean somebody who doesnt agree with your point of view?
“they’re nothing but blind fascists, brought up on hate and given lives to waste
SLF for the win!
Didn't a recent survy of gammons enthusiastic Brexiteers say that the economy taking a massive hit, Scotlandshire leaving the union, Oirland leaving the union and having their own grandchildren disemboweled in front of them with a rusty hacksaw blade would all be prices worth paying to leave the EU?
This is where we are going

As a Brexitier he rules out the extension/election/furtherextension/referendum/remain path, but then his reasoning about why that is shrinkingly unlikely are probably sound. He highlights the clashes ahead after “Brexit Day”… clashes that exist because we still haven’t chosen what we want to replace membership with, or weighed up that alternative against keeping membership.
