Importantly from last night, Labour Leave rebels voting against whip are now down to 2 - were at 7 during Article 50 amendments...
Eg Hoey & Stringer on this motion. But Campbell voted with Labour, Hopkins not there, Stuart left parliament, Field abstained
Would that be the same on eg the Government's exit date amendment? It certainly puts Tory rebel numbers of 10-15 in defeat territory
There are a dozen amendments with more than 10 Tory MPs already signed up, done already have 15
That said if Julian Smith follows Williamson's Whip strategy - there is no chance of these amendments being put if rebel numbers remain high
fairly extraordinary that an attempt to sound tough on exit date has opened up a new front which risks displaying weakness/ require retreat
