Labours Matt Woodcock is voting with the Tories tonight .
John Woodcock had the Labour whip removed last year and resigned from the party and now sits as an independent, he's not a Labour MP.

Well every time May tries to move her position and upsets elements of her party, she will probably face a confidence vote at every turn. Tonight was the easy one to win, she has not told her party or the DUP her plan B yet.

No wonder we are in this state, these mp's are just full of bull5hit,
Rudders just said she was confident that the maybot would win the confidence vote, when she clearly would, yet last week when she was asked about the vote on her deal it was ' lets wait and see ' when it was clear the maybot would get ripped a new one on it, they wouldn't know honest if it smacked em in the face.

Labour, The SNP and The Lib Dems made their views on no deal pretty clear tonight. If her meetings with them don't bear fruit, there's nothing to stop Corbyn bringing another vote next week.

Well at least the members bill on low level letterboxes was allowed to be read today, so parliament has achieved something today. That's good.

Corbyn and McDonnell and their rhetoric have been mortally wounded. No credible opposition. Resign you two FUDs!

Its pretty clear parliament will not allow that., But with May presenting an amendable bill (plan B) on Monday, it will probably be the last deal standing that will win through.

See how cross party talks go, you might get another one yet.

The tory MPs that voted for no confidence against the PM last month have now voted for her in Parliament. I’m sure that is in the National interest and not purely Conservative party interests.
She survived tonight purely due to the DUP so that was a deal worth making. Unfortunately the tail ends up wagging the dog.
This is all about holding the Conservative party together, always has been, hence the promise of that disastrous referendum which exposed the split in the country.
Can’t see any way out unfortunately. I am Labour but know that Jeremy is not electable unfortunately. In the future he will be talked about with fondness like we do about Tony Benn. The press have ensured he is unelectable. It was always thus.

Does he still play the flute?

Well if nothing is sorted by 2259 on 29th of March the law dictates we’re off.

The original post - apologies.
I have no doubt the U.K. will trade but given how weak, chaotic and desperate the country is it will be on other nations terms. It’s best to negotiate from a strong position, not a position where the entire world knows you NEED to sign deals.
Besides, this lot have demonstrated for the past two years how inept they are at negotiation. They can’t even decide what they want between themselves let alone what’s best for the like of you. I question your confidence...not to mention your intelligence. I presume you mean countries like the US, Brazil, Russia etc. If you meant Albania and Peru I take it back.
May's planning on making a statement at 10 tonight. I expect yet another round of the usual tosh we've heard a million times before, just with a slightly different backdrop.
It doesn’t work like this in many jobs. You have very low employment, jobs constantly need filling. And the vast majority of the jobs that constantly need filling don’t need “the best”, they just need a ready supply of willing people. You won’t have this when visas kick in.
