Ryan Shorthouse and Anvar Sarygulov: We need more migrants to become citizens

Doing so would improve social integration, enhance the contribution that migrants make, and allay public discontent over immigration.

Stephen Booth: The strict time limit will steer the next phase of Brexit towards a clear choice

For both Brexiteers and the EU, Brexit is a constitutional issue, from which economic consequences flow, rather than the other way around.

Nick Hargrave: As a Tory moderate, I’ve been tempted to give up on Johnson’s party. But here’s why I’m sticking with it.

It would also be dishonest to claim that the thought of voting Liberal Democrat did not flicker momentarily as we’ve veered towards knuckle-head, pound-shop Orbanism.

Dominic Walsh: What would No Deal mean for trade beyond the EU?

While trade deals have taken on an important political and symbolic value, their benefits are typically smaller and slower to materialise than many realise.

Iain Dale: The stars are aligning for a Johnson premiership

Plus: Leadsom is a mensch. The Euro-elections may be a Conservative wipeout. And: my interview with Blair.

Positions on both sides of the Commons are hardening, despite (or because of) the crusade for consensus

Not only are Leavers and Remainers drifting further apart, but the various Remain factions are now engaged in a furious blame game.

It’s Groundhog Letwin. MPs cast their indicative votes against [roll of drums]…everything. Again.

The supporters of the softer Brexit and pro-Remain options have helped to do each other in. And Boles has walked out on the Conservative Party (it seems).

WATCH: Boles quits – “I can no longer sit for this Party”

The Grantham and Stamford MP leaves the Conservative benches, to a cry of “Nick, don’t go” from one of his colleagues.

Indicative Votes Round Two: 3) Common Market 2.0. 33 Conservatives for. 228 against.

Otherwise known as Norway Plus, those backing the move included Bim Afolami, James Cartlidge and George Eustice.

Indicative Votes. Bercow selects four motions. All back either a Softer Brexit, a second referendum – or No Brexit at all.

That’s variously for a customs union; for a custom arrangement plus the Single Market; for a second referendum, and for staying in the EU.

Our view of May’s deal

Hers or Letwins? That’s what the choice is narrowing down to. From the point of view of trust in politics, how MPs vote will now make little difference – if any.

Robert Halfon: Mythbusting Common Market 2.0

It would increase our power to control freedom of movement, plus our laws and finances – and deliver on the referendum result.

Chris White: A guide to today’s indicative votes – and their significance, as the legislature seizes power from the executive

This week has seen Parliament grab control, and this has serious implications for the practices of responsible government.

Shanker Singham: Of all the options Parliament might consider this week, only a free trade agreement is viable

Longer extension, Customs Union, ‘Common Market 2.0’ and so on all have severe downsides.

Andrew Smith: Whatever indicative votes produce, let it not be Norway Plus

It would be dangerous for UK business and would leave both Leavers and Remainers dissatisfied. It would leave Britain subject to free movement.
