Well, that's the PM's deal clearly rejected for a third time! Hopefully this will be the last time and now they'll start to find a solution that parliament can agree to!

Looking forward to remaining an EU citizen for at least the next two weeks and hopefully quite some time after that! EU elections here we come

Mrs May said the vote would have "grave" implications and the "legal default" was that the UK would leave on 12 April.

That meant there would not be enough time to get legislation through to avoid a no-deal Brexit, she said.
Only if she doesn't ask for an extension and call a GE! Surely she wouldn't be that spiteful and force the country in to no deal, with only a small minority wanting it?

If she wishes to proceed with no deal, then she still has to pass a binding motion through parliament to achieve that. Parliament would certainly reject such a motion. The question is then what happens, and will likely be determined by any amendments to that motion.

In real terms now, she can only try and persist with her deal, find a compromise for a new deal or revoke article 50. The house will almost certainly not allow us to leave on the 12th with no deal.

Technically, the PM could refuse to do anything in which case, we would leave on the 12th with no deal as the default, but without the motion to permit this being passed she would be in contempt of parliament and on such a serious issue this would be treason which technically still carries the death penalty - so I doubt she would take this route, although given her track record I wouldn't say its impossible!

I'm not sure she would. The vote on no deal was just a statement of intent by Parliament, the legal position was no deal on date of exit if a deal had not been agreed? We can still drop out, as I understand it

They abolished death penalty for that in 1998, but I doubt she would be charged with treason for that anyway. Shame..........

Its the end of the leave means leave march, maybe a few hundred at most! Certainly nothing like the million remainers the other week!

Guy Verhofstadt took the p1ss out of Farage in the EU parliament for not taking part in his own march, its pretty funny

I stand corrected, but still not a scratch on the turnout for the peoples vote march last week!

Aparently there was also an anti-racism counter demonstration there too, but it didn't say the numbers of that.

Ah, the debacle continues.

Was going to touch on many things, but will leave the real answers to people like Punch. Sure they will sum it up nicely.

Fingers please stop typing. If ever there was a thread or subject that deserved no attention.,it is this

Seeing as migrants are net contributors to the UK, I'm not sure how you get to that, but even if we say we are a soft touch, is that the fault of the EU? UK policy is set by UK government, not the EU. The EU has not reduced our police spending, the UK has.

The "Shadow" MP's like Corbin who waited to see which way the wind blew are the reason for the mess. They neither supported nor denied the options until they saw opportunities to make things awkward.
They have now made it so bad that they are left with chaos, yet their popularity is still utterly rubbish due to their leanings toward the likes of Hamas, the IRA and even saying Russia was not involved in the Salisbury incident as made them a joke.
Irrespective of leaving or remaining the politics of the UK have been dealt a mortal blow by egotistical, one up man-ship and 15 minutes of fame MP's. They don't answers question but quote policy and rhetoric but still draw £70K plus expenses from UK PLC. Many are sheep and afraid to stand up, be counted or held to account by the UK population. Like most Civil Servants, if they can blame someone else or avoid any form of accountability they will.
However many Brexit options are voted on today or any other day in the House of Commons, EU law stipulates that there are only three on the table: no deal, no Brexit, or Theresa May's negotiated deal.
