LETWIN AMENDMENT:

Ayes: 322
Noes: 306
Maj: 16

Govt defeated.
What does mean?

Attention now turns to whether or not Johnson will send the letter and the manner in which he will do it.

If they don’t pressure will grow for a Vote of No Conf.

If they do govt will do all they can to persuade EU to reject extension.
In the meantime, the WAB and Meaningful Vote next week

But WAB can be amended to death. Second ref obviously though votes prob still aren’t there for that.

But a permanent customs union. That was 2 away before. I’d be v worried about that if I were in Number 10.
But you got sense momentum was definitely with the govt today and they were close if not there with the numbers. For remainers and soft Brexiters, today may turn out to be little more than a stay of execution.
