They’ve rejected any amendments that could have forced the Government to act, and passed a nothing amendment that’s advisory.
They’re like a dying man that’s rejected all advice from doctors but signs a note at the end saying he doesn’t want to die. Pointless.Comment

...the agreement agreed by May back in Dec 2017. And agreed by the Cabinet then. And then agreed in writing a couple of months later.Originally posted by AtW View PostIt’s all EUs fault for not willing to change already agreed agreement.

And then extended at the UKs request so that the backstop included the whole of the U.K. and not just NI.
And then reviewed and signed off by May, Davis, Raab, etc.
And then tonight whipped to oppose the very same agreement that they had agreed.
Regardless of how this plays out with the EU, the rest of the world is watching this and wondering how the U.K. will ever agree any FTAs and not renege on them.....Comment
