no, no

the extension is only if Mv3 passes.

Now that I read it, I think an extension is also on the table if MV3 fails, there's just some passive aggressive language (in paragraph 3) that the EU will not necessarily agree to an extension if the deal hasn't been accepted by Parliament. Paragraph 1 is independent of paragraph 2:

quote:

(1) notes the resolutions of the house of 12 and 13 March, and accordingly agrees that the government will seek to agree with the European Union an extension of the period specified in article 50(3);

(2) agrees that, if the house has passed a resolution approving the negotiated withdrawal agreement and the framework for the future relationship for the purposes of section 13(1) (b) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 by 20 March 2019, then the government will seek to agree with the European Union a one-off extension of the period specified in article 50(3) for a period ending on 30 June 2019 for the purpose of passing the necessary EU exit legislation

Yeah that's my read too. Parliament isn't gonna just sit on its arse if MV3 fails.

It might not actually make progress but it's gonna argue about it a lot. Though going by today it's entirely possible they'll just keep doing "NO TO MAY'S DEAL" "NO TO ANYTHING ELSE ALSO" "LET'S VOTE ON MAY'S DEAL AGAIN" very loudly.

By the way, regarding that earlier rumour, this motion has now at least in principle given the government a mandate to negotiate on the four year extension since paragraph 1 doesn't specify the length of the extension.

Also, it's a bit of a victory for May's deal advancing in the sense that a short extension and May's deal passing are now pretty joined at the hip. It reinforces yesterday's case the government is trying to make, that if you want Brexit, May's deal is the only game in town.

Kid's blasting everything in sight with that new-fangled musket.


 motion states that Article 50 will be extended until 30 June, if MPs approve the prime minister's deal by 20 March.

If an agreement on a deal is not reached by the 20 March, the government will seek a more substantial extension, but the EU would have to agree to this and set the terms

I.e. so they can spend however long left under the Fixed Terms Parliaments Act loving everything up that's not just Brexit, then ideally loose the next election but leave the next government a jar of fermented poo poo?

I think the cunning plan here is that it leaves it open for May to go off, get their offer on an extension, then go back to parliament and go "here you go" and the usual suspects shout a lot about how it's too long and then go "well if you pass my deal we'll be done and dusted sooner eh"

What is going wrong with that one (face is longer than it should be)
This is really gonna be No Deal, isn't it

Or (almost worse) May is going to actually win by holding the whole country hostage

A four year extension is kinda nonsensical really because this government can't negotiate a deal that the next government would have to honour.

So the only way it would make sense is if she called an election just after getting the extension so as to give (ideally her) the government the use of the full duration.

Which of course will be followed by the proposal being voted down, May tabling her deal, and it being voted down and May instructed to ask for a shorter extension please...

So there'll be an extension maybe, but only if May gets her terrible deal on the third attempt, and if not that, then no deal even though that was voted against?

I suggest finding some American football or maybe hockey pads to use as melee armor in the upcoming hellscape.

Exactly, I edited that same point into my post! This is slowly reducing the options into:

- don't agree to my deal and we are stuck with the EU for four more years and god knows what will happen;
- agree to my deal and you will definitely get Brexit in some shape or form

It's leveraging the vast parliamentary majority against NDB to strongarm the hardliners into accepting the deal. However, the swivel-eyes still have the advantage in that just running out the clock until March 29 will also get them Brexit.

Headline is hopelessly misleading, since a delay is subject to EU approval and they won't unless it comes with some meaningful political change, end even then they might now.
