Key Quotes
“Rumours are swirling that hard-Brexiters might vote against the motion or abstain, as the 29 Jan approach includes a non-binding instruction to avoid no-deal Brexit. A loss would be non-binding on the government, and merely serve to highlight fractures within the party.”
“Ultimately, today's vote is aimed at simply buying May more time as a deal comes down to the line--we expect resolution only in the final 10 days of March. MPC member Vlieghe delivers a speech on the economic outlook at 9:30am GMT.”
