The new cross-party amendment that would remove May’s control of the Brexit negotiation

Cooper/Letwin is back, supported by Labour and Tory Europhiles as well as the Liberal Democrats, the Independent Group, and Scottish and Welsh nationalists.

The eight amendments tabled ahead of tonight’s debate on extending Article 50

There’s a Conservative/Labour/Democratic Unionist push to rule out a second referendum and Benn leads the charge for Cooper/Letwin.

The panel, comprising legally-trained Conservative and DUP MPs as well as outside experts, set out their full legal reasoning for rejecting the deal.

The 17 Conservative MPs who voted against the whip on the Government’s motion

Two of them, Sarah Newton and Paul Masterton, were members of the Government, and have resigned.

The five Secretaries of State who supported the Green Amendment

As a free vote, this may give us the clearest picture of the divisions at the very top of the Party over how to approach Brexit.

The 66 Tories who voted against ‘Malthouse Two”

Several Ministers helped to see off the Government’s best hope of avoiding a full-on crisis in the Party – and perhaps of saving Brexit too.

The nine Conservative MPs who flouted the whip to vote for the Spelman Amendment

There aren’t any surprises here, although on a grim night the Government at least appear to have talked two of its original signatories out of backing it.

The Prime Minister’s extension choice – short and technical, or long and electoral. Her statement – full text.

“But let me be clear, such a short technical extension is only likely to be on offer if we have a deal in place.”

Government votes against own amended motion. And loses. Commons confirms vote to take No Deal off the table – period.

The motion ruling out No Deal passes by 321 votes to 278. It’s another evening of humiliation for May.

The Green amendment – Malthouse Two – is defeated. It’s 164 for, 374 against.

That’s roughly half the Conservative Parliamentary Party, plus presumably some DUP MPs.

Spelman amendment passes by four votes. MPs vote to take No Deal off the table – for good.

The vote has no legal force, but it sends an important signal. The former Cabinet Minister didn’t move her amendment, but others did in any event.
