The Chaos goes on: Theresa May offers to resign if the Tory members supported the Deal. But the Northern Irish DUP says no. And the Parliament agreed to, unsuccessfully, using variants of the Brexit.
Or is it a second Referendum, as called for Brexit opponent? The Parliament is not willing to do so.
At the end of the so-called “men in grey suits”, the first turn of the day. A Delegation of the ancients of the Conservatives brought to the Prime Minister, the unfortunate truth is that large parts of their party would have lost confidence in you. The Theresa May knew for a long time, reigned but more as if it you couldn’t be bothered.
For weeks the rumor, the right-wing Tory courses-deputies are ready to vote for Theresa May with the EU negotiated exit agreement, if you announced your resignation. She had long hesitated, because she wanted to not of the hard-liners out of the house hunt. Early Wednesday evening, but she went to fall on her sword. May saw no other way out, because they were to Vote, and the Minister had resignations in serial no government majority.
In an emotional speech before the group meeting of the Conservatives, the Prime Minister said: “I have understood the mood. I know that there is the desire for a fresh start and a change of leadership.” She was ready to leave office earlier than intended, if you were to give the members a majority for Brexit Deal.
The hall was almost moved to tears. Thus, deputies reported, had been praised Mays Dignity, their sense of duty. Top Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg celebrated their “courage in the finish”. So many friendly words had not found the group for a Long time for the Prime Minister. The enthusiasm of the Brexit Clique was, however, obvious that this is also the starting shot for the contest for the succession was dropped.
The short Triumph of the turncoats
Boris Johnson, Michael Gove, Dominic Raab and others for weeks in the Position; previously, a few of them proved to be as talented turncoats. The group of hard Brexiteers and other May-opponent had already voted twice against the outlet Deal of the Prime Minister. Now, however, she declared all of a sudden, you could now agree to it. Jacob Rees-Mogg about justified his change of attitude so that half a bread is better than none, so he will now vote for the Deal. Boris Johnson, as well as Ian Duncan Smith and other rebels.
They had hold in the last days and months of the termination agreement, the “worst Deal ever” called, “vassalage”, a “suicide vest” (Boris Johnson), the detonator, the EU “unacceptable,” and so on. The prospect of a hard Brexiteer as the successor of Theresa May but made sure that the strong sayings of yesterday were within a Short forget.
Theresa May: the planned resignation as Prime Minister against a Brexit Deal was nothing.
DUP finally ignites the bomb
Observers had soon calculated that it wouldn’t be enough even according to the most recent admissions to the exit agreement for Theresa May continues to be a majority. She had lost the second vote in mid-March, still with 75 votes. Thus, if 20 to 30 of the hard-liners in the case of no remained, it wouldn’t be enough.
Later in the evening but the Northern Irish DUP, lit a bomb. You will not regret to see himself in a position to support the Prime Minister. And, in addition, it could not be included in such a decisive question for the Union of Northern Ireland and the United Kingdom.
Thus, the Brexit-the Deal remains as dead as a Dodo. In addition, the Speaker of the lower house, had earlier repeated his warning against a third vote on the same Treaty is expected to prevent, in this Situation, a re-submission.
The Parliament says eight times no
The dream of the Parliament, it could snatch in a coup of the government the control over the future of the Brexit, proved to be an Illusion. The deputies but failed to process problems, because they can bring against the will of the government, after all, a series of eight Brexit-versions on the table of the house.
They failed due to their own disunity. Although it had previously given to cross-party talks to more celebrities to explore, got on the end of any of the offered variants. Also a hard No-Deal-Brexit was rejected by a large majority in the Parliament. However, it was more so that no step is determine what you wish because a majority of the members instead.
Eight Brexit variants not find a majority in Parliament.
The most successful of the proposal that the UK should stay in the customs Union with the EU was still. But here, too, eight votes for the majority were missing. Similarly, the Norway-in-one solution with the internal market, a new common market 2.0, the return of article 50, or a second Referendum was rejected.
This vote series on light green paper destroyed any hope of the moderate deputies, the Parliament could take, instead of the government, the fortunes of the country in terms of Brexit. This “note-giving the votes were” a slap in the water.
In Brussels, you have to are pulling their hair out, because the British can’t now, still say, “what you really want”. The parties, the government and the Public are divided over his Brexit, that any compromise seems impossible. The UK is more in the cul-de-SAC. A hard Brexit moves on 12. April closer, if not a parliamentary majority for an extension until the end of the year. However, this would mean that the country would have to participate in the European elections in may.
There May be a resignation from the resignation?
Also Theresa may’s fate is likely in the medium term, be sealed. It is hard to imagine that your party will be allowed a withdrawal from the withdrawal, even if they had offered it only under certain conditions. A head of government, is missing permanently, the majority in the Parliament, it must at some point give up trying to govern.
At all it is hard to imagine how you want to control in this Situation, the country continues due to the ongoing Brexit crisis. The only democratic and rational solutions would be new elections and/or a second Referendum. But Theresa May says in unwandelbarem stubbornness again and again “no”. After this day full of Drama and great political theatre, the British are at the exact same point as the Morning before. It is a kind of raging at a standstill and no one seems to find the key to the carousel to stop.
