MPs will get their say on Brexit alternatives such as a Norway-style deal, a permanent customs union or even staying in the EU.

Academics have described the suspension of government business in the Commons as one of the most fundamental shifts in relationship between the government and parliament since 1642.MPs have until the end of the day on Tuesday to table different Brexit options for the Commons to vote on.

Commons officials will then count the votes, expected to take an hour, and so the results will then be announced sometime after 8.30pm.In legal terms, the votes mean nothing and will not compel the government to change its Brexit strategy. Theresa May's party is now a bystander; it can only watch as MPs act as an executive, determining what they vote on and how

However, if there was a large Commons majority for one Brexit option, she might find it politically impossible to ignore.The indicative votes plan also seeks to once again suspend government business in the Commons on Monday 1 April.

About time we took this shit show away from May and the loony ERG.

Why not cover that the extension isn’t legally binding until they’ve voted on it tomorrow? Funny how the EU were allowed to make the decision before Parliament agreed for the extension?
