Brexit Deal Voted

[fender62]

the i's have it 521-73

[Jackdaw33]

Never in any doubt. Just the swivel-eyed SNP and a few malcontents against.

[Khandro]

No doubt of the outcome, but still a sigh of relief the last milepost passed.

[Peter Pedant]

well - - - historically
remember President Wilson 1919 - ten points for democracy
and the Treaty of Versailles etc? and all the la-dee-da about self determination of nations ?

Congress didnt ratify ......

[weecalf]

Was the vote for leaving or not leaving without a deal .

[ToraToraTora]

oh dear, Blackford better go and prostrate himself at wee jimmy's feet! PMSL!

[dannyk13]

Now voting on the third reading of the bill.
Result :- bill passed by 521 to 73
Now it goes to the House of Lords.

[dannyk13]

Two divisions with exactly the same votes.

[ToraToraTora]

weecalf: "Was the vote for leaving or not leaving without a deal . " - we left last January the vote was to exit the transition period with the proposed deal, if it did not pass the transition would have expired and we'd have no deal and default to WTO rules.

[weecalf]

So we have the euro union to thank for not being landed with a no deal .Is that right ?

[dannyk13]

weecalf//So we have the euro union to thank //
No, we have Boris to thank.

[ToraToraTora]

no it's not right. We have both sides to thank for thrashing out a sensible deal and their respective approval mechanisms.

[anneasquith]

How did Northern Ireland vote ?

[dannyk13]

NI voted against.

[Jackdaw33]

Against, but that was because of the border in the Irish sea.

[anneasquith]

Thank you Danny.

[New Judge]

//So we have the euro union to thank for not being landed with a no deal .Is that right ?//

No. Both sides are to blame for that. Still, it is what it is. There is still the "Joint Partnership Council", 19 sub-committees, seven working groups, the domestic working groups and the "Civil Society Forum" (no, me neither) that the Agreement says must be set up. So plenty of snouts needed in the trough there together with ample scope for argument, disagreement, rancour, Port of Calais blockaded, "transition" periods and general EU cobblers to be going on with. So all is not lost.

[ichkeria]

Not many Labour can have voted against in the end.
It should be a worry to the PM that so many Scottish and Irish MPs voted against

[ichkeria]

It was only the 8 unionists who voted against because of the so called border on the Irish Sea.
In four years time the NI Assembly gets to vote on the protocols outlined in the withdrawal agreement
