MPs derail Boris Johnson's Brexit deal - for now

MPs have voted not to give their approval to the prime minister's Brexit deal until he has passed all necessary legislation.

The result will effectively force Boris Johnson to seek an extension to the Article 50 negotiating period tonight, possibly delaying Brexit beyond 31 October.

There won't be a GE either as Geoffery says Labour is too cowardly to call one.

Let’s have a vote...hang on, that’s already happened.
Let’s do it again as I didn’t get what I wanted the 1st time but I might get it this time😂. Selfish...

The meaningful vote happened over three years ago. Parliament thinks they have a more important one

[AICabal]

The EU are not going to grant an extension. It is this deal, or no deal.
