So, 48 Tory MPs want the world to stop while they have a vote of confidence in their leader.

Followed by an electoral process likely to take weeks to complete.

Meanwhile, the Article 50 clock keeps counting down.

The only conceivable outcome I can see is any new PM will have to go cap in hand to the EU and delay Brexit.

They timed it for maximum chance of disrupting anything but a hard no deal Brexit. Look at the list oh MPs, they’re all the already-moved-my-cash-overseas brigade.

Given that those in the Erg know there is no majority in Parliament for a no deal it looks like they are prepared to play Russian roulette with their party and if they get one of theirs elected as leader then also the country..

If May wins this vote tonight, those people will (thankfully) be silenced.

This may not be such a bad thing if she sees off the threat today as it will be business as usual tomorrow.

I wonder just how many “sensible” Conservatives will take it out on the ERG group for this very badly timed action and punish them for their poor judgement.

When you consider that she won the leadership despite

Leadsome, Gove & Fox (brexiteers ) being candidates! Oh well we will know tonight and if she loses, and there is a contest which eventually goes to the Tory membership - cliff edge brexit!

Looks like ERG and the BREXITERS are following Paul Oakley's advice and are going in to Terminated mode against their country and their party.

"We can’t be bargained with, we can’t be reasoned with, we don’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear, And we absolutely will not stop, ever, until we get hard Brexit.”

Paul Oakley, UKIP immigration spokesman - BREXIT Betrayal March 9/December/2018

Still, with our own experience here, and no doubt on other social media sites with BREXITERS, we already knew that you can't bargain or reason with them and that they don't give a shit what collateral damage they do along the way, just so long as they get their own way. Their like a bunch of spoilt kids. Totally irresponsible.

As a Conservative, I hope that the ERG lose and are purged from the party.

They had plenty to say pre-referendum and nothing of substance since. No plan, no solutions other than to resort to WTO exit.

They have a very selfish outlook and at this time, we need informed and forward thinking people more.

the ERG aren't looking at killing her off tonight..... they know they won't get 158!

they are basically looking at trying to fatally wound her... so if they can get lets say 90-100, she will know she is in huge trouble and then the question will be will she decide to fall on her own sword..... or let the death be slow and painful!

The EU have already made it perfectly clear that there will be no renegotiation.

The EU have been completely inflexible and came up with the most crucifying deal that they thought they could get away with.

The biggest problem we have had is that those in goverment and the civil service whi have been part of the negotiation process have been rubbish and given concessions to the EU hand over fist.

I would have done things very differently.

The problem we also have with MP's claiming that they would not support a 'no deal' exit is that they have been very public about it - which is precisely why the EU have us where they want us.

The vote of no confidence was an inevitable consequence of delaying the vote on the deal.

I’m guessing TM is taking a gamble that she can possibly win the vote of no confidence rather than face losing the deal vote and possibly trigger a vote of no confidence the the government and also in her leadership.

A lesser of multiple evils...

The last two Tory Primeministers have shown that they will recklessly gamble with the nation’s future.

Parliament will prevent a so called no deal Withdrawal. No deal would be a failure of epic proportions and the consequence of very simple people shrugging their shoulders because things got a bit complicated.

No deal won’t happen, because it can’t happen without a truly massive recruitment campaign for new civil servants.

But will tory MPs want Boris ? He’s lost the momentum of the referendum, and didn’t set the world alight at the FO (plus a couple of Boris balls up). Does he have enough public support to win the next GE. Or is it giving labour more ripe to hang themselves with ?

The Tories are an incompetent and divided party and I don’t have any confidence in possible candidates... God forbid a Gove or BoJo PM. I’m no fan of Mrs May either I find her patronising and out of touch to say the least. Though I think she may well win the confidence vote.

My view is we need to have a overhaul of the political system. Move to a proportional representation based on the New Zealand MMP model which provides real representation of the voters rather than our antiquated first past the post which only reinforces two party systems.

It’s the two party system that allows for extreme factions to evolve (Militant & ERG) within them. Whilst consensus politics decision are normally made in the best interest rather than following dogma.

Because we have always done something one way does not mean should continue to do it that way.

I would also ban second jobs for MP’s and make parliament sit proper working hours.

I’m probably a minority voice here....

Theresa May is very, very unlikely to lose this vote and it will be business as usual tomorrow.

The big takeaway from this (again) is the Brextremists (who are overly represented in the ERG) have yet again demonstrated very poor political judgement and acted in a very foolish way.

But isn't that the same with almost all Brextremists?

Unreliable, poor judgement, fantasy driven and living in cloud cuckoo land.

I agree. I don’t understand why they did not let her fail of her own accord, i.e. when Parliament voted down her deal.

Or were they worried the outcome of that wouldn’t be a Tory leadership election but a Jeremy Corbyn government.

I think that A50 is already being re-written as we speak to prevent such actions. Like everything that's never been done before, hindsight is a wonderful thing! Believe it or not the EU are not as preoccupied with brexit as the Brits! Also just like the UK the EU has spent a lot of money on brexit. How many millions have the UK spent on brexit £350m - which could have been spent on the NHS?

Believe it or not the EU are not as preoccupied with brexit as the Brits! Also just like the UK the EU has spent a lot of money on brexit. How many millions have the UK spent on brexit £350m - which could have been spent on the NHS? "

Er, re-writing Article 50 would be illegal.

The only way it could be changed is if an ammendment were to be put forward and each member state signed up to it.

Fake news! Please point out one post where i have said they (the negotiators) are idiots. Just one example please!

As far as slagging them off I suppose you would have done a better job? What do you do for a living - your a professional negotiator - you must be surely? It's taken how long to get 48 letters - Bridgen reckons his went in, in July!

As far as the deal is concerned take it or leave it - simple and part of me wants a hard brexit then we will see who is right and who is wrong!

I think it said somewhere in the ECJ ruling that the triggering and withdrawal of Article 50 had to be genuine and not part of a stunt for political advantage. If we withdraw and then trigger straight away I think it would fall foul of the ruling.

We should either suspend Article 50, with the agreement of the EU 27, if there is the possibility of a general election or 3rd referendum to sort the problem out, or withdraw Article 50 then, over a few years, work out what the people really want from leaving and, if it's deliverable, trigger Article 50 with a proper plan in a few years time.

"i should imagine there are still cretinous morons who will vote for these tory turds despite the fact that they've caused the most damage to the country out of any government ever

This is why the Tories feel untouchable. They can openly screw over the population and then they know that they’re core voters don’t give a fuck and will vote for them again anyway."

To be fair, the same applies to Labour too.

From my point of view I'd have a great deal of trouble voting for Corbyn's Labour party and the LibDems stand no chance here. I'm not saying that means I'll vote Conservative next election but it's not an easy choice.

Maybe but, what ever the process it definitely needs to be looked at again. Not the triggering part but the unilateral withdrawal after triggering.

My plans simple; withdraw Article 50, stop the current BREXIT process. Then, in our own good time, find out if the people still want any BREXIT at all and, if they do, find out what sort of BREXIT people really want and, if it's deliverable, trigger Article 50 in a few years time with a proper plan for a workable BREXIT.

Actually, he is right.

It appears that the only true way forwards is to leave completely and set out our own stall... OK. Let's say that was the way forward here is what has to happen.

1)Revoke A50

2) Appoint a Royal Charter to report on the needs of the nation to "go it alone"

3) Start the process of planning to repatriate Agencies and Regulatory Bodies that are currently tied up in EU legislation

4) When the Royal Charter Reports and all Agencies have completed their budgets for repatriation the country will have a clear picture of the timeframe, the needs and the costs of both withdrawing and moving forwards.

5) Govt appoints a committee of national consensus to move the process forwards and once we within a two year period of being ready to withdraw, A50 is triggered.

I would say that if A50 is revoked on January 01st 2019, it would take a further two years for planning and budgetary work to be completed and then a further five years to get the recruitment and skills level at the repatriated bodies up to speed. therefore withdrawal January 2026 and A50 January 2024

I really don't think I could say it any clearer. Stop BREXIT now.

See if the people still want any BREXIT at all.

If they still do come up with a proper, workable strategy and plan.

When we have a strategy and plan for BREXIT trigger Article 50.

We already had the choice. There has already been a peoples vote. The default is Leaving the EU. The question on the ballot paper in the referendum was remain or leave the EU. The people chose leave. The default still fulfills the result of the referendum as expressed with the question on the ballot paper.

As does May's deal.

We all know that the mad BREXITERS are trying to run the clock down so there is no time to do anything except fall out with 'no deal'. It isn't going to happen. It only takes a single vote in Parliament to withdraw Article 50. Come 20-March-19, if not before, if it looks like 'no deal' Parliament will vote to withdraw Article 50.

The sooner you realise that the real choice is May's deal, something very like May's deal but softer or no BREXIT, the sooner you'll start to talk sence again.

Then, in our own good time, find out if the people still want any BREXIT at all and, if they do, find out what sort of BREXIT people really want and, if it's deliverable, trigger Article 50 in a few years time with a proper plan for a workable BREXIT.

Still waiting for you to come up with your "something better" than May's plan. You said it wouldn't be hard.

We keep the 39billion and toss them a £1 to fight over that will keep the 27 other members busy for a few years, they won't notice we have gone! "

LOL.

That's another BREXIT fantasy, that in a 'no deal' scenario we get to keep the £39 billion we owe. We don't. In fact we could actually end up owing more. £39 billion (actually the EU already reckon the amount we'll pay is closer to €70 billion) was a compromise from the EU. The EU reckons with no no deal and no compromise the amount we owe is €100+ billion.

It won't be the House of Lords that decides. It will be the binding court of arbitration for the trading block we are/were in that decides. The binding court of arbitration for the EU is the ECJ.

I think Boris has , and indeed , he would happily have us out with no deal . No penalties , no 39 billion for nothing , and stuff the lot of them .

Europe don’t want us to leave , hence their efforts to screw us over . We need someone strong enough to say no to them . And Boris is the man to do that .

It doesn’t take much to lead us out on the default. Would you rather not have someone try and find an alternative and allow a choice ?

We already had the choice. There has already been a peoples vote. The default is Leaving the EU. The question on the ballot paper in the referendum was remain or leave the EU. The people chose leave. The default still fulfills the result of the referendum as expressed with the question on the ballot paper.

As does May's deal.

We all know that the mad BREXITERS are trying to run the clock down so there is no time to do anything except fall out with 'no deal'. It isn't going to happen. It only takes a single vote in Parliament to withdraw Article 50. Come 20-March-19, if not before, if it looks like 'no deal' Parliament will vote to withdraw Article 50.

The sooner you realise that the real choice is May's deal, something very like May's deal but softer or no BREXIT, the sooner you'll start to talk sence again.

"

If Parliament votes to withdraw article 50, (effectively Parliament will be voting to remain) then that puts Parliament in opposition to the will of the people. As Jacob Rees Mogg has pointed out many times every time Parliament puts itself in opposition to the people then Parliament ends up losing every time.

In a no deal scenario we leave the EU and all its institutions, FULLY. That means we leave the EU and the ECJ on the 29th March 2019. Any subsequent rulings made by the ECJ after Brexit are meaningless to the UK because we'll no longer be under it's jurisdiction.

You’re arguing against a point I didn’t make. I was simply saying it doesn’t take much leadership to guide us to the default.

This assumes the ECJ can’t rule on matters which occurred under its jurisdiction once we leave. The HoL legal opion was they can’t (hence the opinion of their brexit committee). Others don’t see the ECJ having this time limit. And so would see they can make a judgement. It’s not a clear and cut case (as the HoL made clear).

Not completely true. We'll still be bound by the legal jurisdiction of whatever jurisdiction any contracts or agreements we made were drawn up under. Just like if you draw a contracts up under US jurisdiction you're bound by that jurisdiction for as long as those contrats last.

There is also the damage not paying are debts would do to our credit rating. It could cost us a lot more in the medium to long term. Not paying what you owe is never a good idea.

There are other situations where what was united has been legally broken up. Most of the former British Empire, Czechoslovakia, AustroHungaria, Yugoslavia, USSR, Ireland, Sudan, Eritrea, New Guinea... the list is endless.

It's not exactly the same but it's a good place to start.

Then why hasn't Mogg, BoJo, Fararge, Corbyn, McDonald or you come forward with something better? What are you and they all waiting for?

I think Boris has , and indeed , he would happily have us out with no deal . No penalties , no 39 billion for nothing , and stuff the lot of them .

Europe don’t want us to leave , hence their efforts to screw us over . We need someone strong enough to say no to them . And Boris is the man to do that .

It doesn’t take much to lead us out on the default. Would you rather not have someone try and find an alternative and allow a choice ?

We already had the choice. There has already been a peoples vote. The default is Leaving the EU. The question on the ballot paper in the referendum was remain or leave the EU. The people chose leave. The default still fulfills the result of the referendum as expressed with the question on the ballot paper.

As does May's deal.

We all know that the mad BREXITERS are trying to run the clock down so there is no time to do anything except fall out with 'no deal'. It isn't going to happen. It only takes a single vote in Parliament to withdraw Article 50. Come 20-March-19, if not before, if it looks like 'no deal' Parliament will vote to withdraw Article 50.

The sooner you realise that the real choice is May's deal, something very like May's deal but softer or no BREXIT, the sooner you'll start to talk sence again.

If Parliament votes to withdraw article 50, (effectively Parliament will be voting to remain) then that puts Parliament in opposition to the will of the people. As Jacob Rees Mogg has pointed out many times every time Parliament puts itself in opposition to the people then Parliament ends up losing every time. "

No Centaur. It will be voting not to being hurried into a chaotic mess.

There was no reason to do this in such a hurry unless you believe that the will of the UK population to go through with it is only marginal. Say 4% certain? Otherwise you'd take your time to work out your position on such a complicated matter before starting negotiations.

Perhaps not you Centaur. Perhaps not you

My plans simple; withdraw Article 50, stop the current BREXIT process. Then, in our own good time, find out if the people still want any BREXIT at all and, if they do, find out what sort of BREXIT people really want and, if it's deliverable, trigger Article 50 in a few years time with a proper plan for a workable BREXIT.

You sound a bit like a certain primeminister she says one thing and means something else, have the backbone to say what you mean!

Still waiting for you to come up with your "something better" than May's plan. You said it wouldn't be hard.

We keep the 39billion and toss them a £1 to fight over that will keep the 27 other members busy for a few years, they won't notice we have gone!

LOL.

That's another BREXIT fantasy, that in a 'no deal' scenario we get to keep the £39 billion we owe. We don't. In fact we could actually end up owing more. £39 billion (actually the EU already reckon the amount we'll pay is closer to €70 billion) was a compromise from the EU. The EU reckons with no no deal and no compromise the amount we owe is €100+ billion.

Of course you believe everything they say!Best break in to your piggy bank if you want to pay them that will be £1.10 off the bill!

I don't believe anything, blind belief is for BREXITERS. What I do is look at both claims in an argument and, partly based on my own experience, partly based on research into similar situations and partly based on good legal principles, I come to an opinion. So far on most BREXIT legal issues my opinion has been correct.

I also try to avoid the trap of basing my opinion on what I want to happen rather than on what the weight of legal precedent and logical opinion would suggest will happen.

Has there been a similar situation! Have you been through brexit before, I thought it was unprecedented? So what are you basing it on?

There are other situations where what was united has been legally broken up. Most of the former British Empire, Czechoslovakia, AustroHungaria, Yugoslavia, USSR, Ireland, Sudan, Eritrea, New Guinea... the list is endless.

You don't take in information do you?

"However, the strictly legal position of the UK on this issue appears to be strong.

Article 50 provides for a ‘guillotine’ after two years if a withdrawal agreement

is not reached unless all Member States, including the UK, agree to extend

negotiations. Although there are competing interpretations, we conclude that

if agreement is not reached, all EU law—including provisions concerning

ongoing financial contributions and machinery for adjudication—will cease

to apply, and the UK would be subject to no enforceable obligation to make

any financial contribution at all. This would be undesirable for the remaining

Member States, who would have to decide how to plug the hole in the budget

created by the UK’s exit without any kind of transition. It would also damage

the prospects of reaching friendly agreement on other issues. Nonetheless, the

ultimate possibility of the UK walking away from negotiations without incurring

financial commitments provides an important context.

Given the legal and political void that would be created by a disorderly exit,

we share the Government’s view of the advantages of achieving a negotiated

agreement. This is particularly the case given the provision in Article 50 for a

withdrawal agreement to take account of the framework for an exiting state’s

future relationship with the Union. If the Government wishes to include future

market access on favourable terms as part of the discussions on the withdrawal

agreement, it is likely to prove impossible to do so without also reaching

agreement on the issue of the budget."

Firstly it's an opinion. There are also opposing opinions. That's what litigation is about.

They also say that you can choose not to pau but you'd be a numpty if you didn't.

Contract law kicks in - we are contractually tied to EU budget until 2020 - I'm surprised an expert like you missed that!

Not according to the House of Lords, they said we're not legally obliged to pay the EU a single penny in the event of no deal. "

Ok let's explain it - you sign a contract which is basically a "promissory note" to pay for something for a specific period. (Mortgage for example). You can cancel the contract early but there is always a penalty clause and as we all know our government has cancelled and paid huge sums for cancelling projects. It's legally binding. Still not getting it? We the British have civil servants "seconded to the EU " - behind the scenes to shuffle paper. We have been in the EU 45yrs - FARAGE has been there half of that time - who is going to pay his pension when he leaves? Simple enough to comprehend now? We are, we have a promise to pay him ( sadly), all the others elected MEP'S and civil servants working in the EU for years and years - until the last one dies! That's what the £39bn is all about. Why do you think the EU won't go beyond 31/12/20 (transition period)?That's when the old budget which we committed to runs out! So that's why I say contract law kicks in - and also why the chancellor always says we will pay out legal liabilities!

Oh on a final note, just imagine the global damage we would incur, if we reneged on not paying our contracts. Every foreign investor, would be queuing up to sell their "promisory notes" - bonds, the UK would be a "junk" investment.

That would be a constructive Brexit.

You are trying to convince those who want a wrecking Brexit.

This is about more than doing what is in the interests of the UK.

It is also about maximising the collateral damage in the process.

That is the agenda of those with a real chip on their shoulder about the EU.

It is also part of the Putin/Trump axis.

I’m hoping this is a miss quite And what he said is he still has no confidence in May but respects the will of the tories. After all it takes 20 years to change your mind etc etc

are you real do you really think they are going to vote with corbyn? Can't believe some people on here.Corbyn should be putting the country first instead of trying to score petty meaningless points. I don't think that the electorate will forget come polling day.

. Last week 117 Conservative MPs voted no confidence in their own PM , if Labour were to bring a similar motion it would be interesting to see how many of the 117 stand by their original decision or how many will back down and show no back bone , something , like you say , and I totally agree with , their electorate may not forget come the next General Election . Corbyn has called for a vote in the PM believing this maybe winnerble as he wont need too many of the 117 to be honourable , The Conservative Party want Labour to change their motion to no confidence in the government (not the PM) so the 117 can vote along party lines saying they were voting for something different to last week , so there's only one party 'playing games' , I would also imagine that the DUP are also looking closely at this , they would find it difficult to vote for the PM but would find it easier to vote for the government ( if they play their cards right they may even be able to negotiate a bit more cash from the magic money tree)
