Well it seems May is going for a third attempt at her deal after being bummed tonight. She's making Thatcher look like a pacifist.

I've read that it's actually illegal to bring back a motion which is substantially the same for a third time in the same Parliament session. Someone might confirm or poo-poo this for me. This is absolutely farcical now though, the government has broken down and isn't getting anything done. How are they still in office? Someone resurrect Guy Fawkes.

The speaker did say to Angela Eagle that he would make a ruling on this is if it applies.  Bit vague but strong hint.

had the misfortune to listen to this fascist prick being interviewed yesterday. Definitely one for the firing squad come the revolution. Massive self important cunt

 

Tory MP Nadhim Zahawi owns property worth more than £25m

MP for Stratford-upon-Avon spent £10m on properties in last 18 months, adding to his £13.75m house in London’s Belgravia

May will cosmetically tweak the deal and get it tabled. The rule is the SAME bill cant come back in the same session of parliament. Ridiculous

It is within the Speakers gift to discern whether the motion is substantively the same.

Here we go.

It says same in substance, which it would be whatever tweaks May might verbally introduce.

More late night dashes to Brussels to get absolutely fuck all, then.

Been out watching a certain sport so not caught up on this nonsense. First things first, how is the pound doing?

Increase in £ driven by Liverpool’s progess is offset by increase in € driven by Virgil Van Dijk’s stellar performance.

The next session starts April 23rd (I think), so if she can get the EU to delay to that date then she can bring the exact same bill back for another vote.

I suspect any Remain voters switching to Leave would more likely be Brenda from Bristol types (or whatever that cunt's name was). The notion that punching yourself in the face will somehow give the ruling classes a much deserved nosebleed is no less prevalent than it was in 2016.

Don’t forget that welsh fucker who chopped his own cock off after they won a match. Never underestimate the humans ability to make a decision that is clearly fucking harmful and offers no benefit.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Theresa May using all her powers of persuasion to get her deal passed. 

 

 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I know it's not the most annoying thing about this debate, but I keep reading the word "block" where the correct word is "bloc".

 

It boils my pedantic piss.

[Anubis]

By the sounds of it May's coterie is desperately working behind the scenes to bribe the DUP and the ERG, and Cox getting lent on.

[Stickman]

Comes to something when Kay Burley is the only one who regularly calls these cowards out for what they are

Current list of MP's amendments to Art 50 vote in this link. Although Bercow has said that because the motion was tabled late he may allow paper amendments.

I've got two things to say to that, having watched half of it. 1) He's right. 2) Mike Gapes? I sure hope not.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Okay. Second half... no Gapes. No.

[M_B]

Bercow getting heat for not selecting the amendment that rules out a second referendum while selecting an amendment that does.

 

And batting off the criticism with his usual deference.

[Denny Crane]

I'm blaming this on Jezza.
