What an insult to citizens of the United Kingdom. The fear mongers have done their job.

They are really taking the piss out of the electorate now! It is this sort of bollocks that lead to the storming of the Bastille

TRAITORS

The lunatics have taken over the asylum

So MPs have got the monkey back, let’s see what they mess up next., they can’t see that they are being bunched into the pit of doom.

When are people who voted LEAVE going to have a team of MPs who are Brexiteers - in order to have people doing their BEST to deliver on the BIGGEST VOTE IN HISTORY⁉️⁉️⁉️ From day 1 - this government has worked against delivering Brexit. Utter utter SHAME‼️‼️‼️

All seems a little like this... Life Of Brian PFJ meeting to take action 😂

The government have just over 2 weeks to do anything. They could not have a general election or referendum within 2 weeks. Time is limited now.

Now you know, as the lady said,” if voting ever changed anything, they’d abolish it.” If the people had courage enough, they’d ditch adversarial parliaments, and elect themselves directly. If... Still, even if we remain in Europe, we’ll be a thorn in its side.

In future everyone needs to understand that they should jolly well vote the way they are told by Parliament or they will throw a hissy fit, bugger it up and then claim it can’t be done. Just so they can ignore that referendum.

vote UKIP

Can we get rid of that parliament please, MPs haven't a clue what they are doing

Good get it over with this week please...

I cant give a f%ck about brexit anymore, there are literally better things to do and say!!!

BBCWorld MPs have forgotten their place. They are servants of the People, not our masters. We voted Leave & they must deliver.

Traitors

Embarrassing that even this won't make them leave Europe... even more likely to ignore the referendum vote and remain... and this is democracy at work?!?

School kids fight 17.4 voted to leave. But yet we still have party politics.bring back lord such now think he can do a better job.if we have a general election a lot of mp’s will lose there seats and I bet there panicking now

Brexit wrecking remain mps are beneath contempt. General Election and clear out needed

Parliament is taking its sovereignty back at last

The split in the votes across the parties still shows the maths is still a 50/50 split. The margins are splitting our country and democracy beyond repair. The people will never forgive them, and I’m very worried long term if this isn’t sorted

This is now more confusing than the plot to Inception.

Disposable traitors!

The result was announced by Bercow was 327 to 300

What happened to brexit? Didn’t we vote for it 😂 this is just beyond the joke now what a breakdown in democracy

Revoke article 50 and put an end to all this bullshit

Like to see how the MP'S try and win back public trust. I think its game over for the 3 main parties now.

What a shambles. The government couldn’t organise a p*ss up in a brewery. I’m bored of Brexit, as I’m sure so many of us are. brexitmess

About time someone put theresa_may in her place and stop her riding roughshod over democracy. A PM with no control of parliament or her party!

Had they done this on day one to work together on leaving the EU I could've understood, but no, its still just about point scoring and to hell with the peasants outside the HOC.

Even the EU lords can see the no deal is the best thing, just get on with it and put theresa_may in the tower.

Dissolve parliament.

burntheballotbox 🗳🔥 we won’t be needing them anymore

Bring back eurotrash..they would have loved this

'Brexit Alternatives' isn't Brexit is it. The people who voted leave in 2016 were lied to. They are not going to honour it because they don't know the meaning of the word. The rt. honourable my arse!

scotslass154 Oh my, you guys should vote

Is the taking back of Sovereignty that the Brexiters promised?

You must stand up against the ERG and listen to the people many of us have changed our minds now that we understand the implications

I can see 17.4 million people getting shafted

Most embarrassing parliament I have seen in my lifetime.

We need you to listen to the people .We want another vote regardless of the outcome ..we want an honest vote which enables young people and U.K. nationals living abroad a vote too !

Let’s vote about a vote!! Jesus will somebody make a bloody decision!!

329 treacherous bastards have just voted to stop the democratic will of 17.4million voters. Let that sink in. General election now please 😠

Thank Goodness for that 😅 Hopefully all of Parliament together can now sort out this mess!🤞

It's like Entmoot in LOTR - Treebeard: We have decided, we have all agreed… that you two are not Orcs.

I’m sorry but even though I voted to remain this whole thing is farce! Whatever happens will be no good now

They've had a vote, and agreed... to have more votes...?

the night democracy died

What do they think will happen if they take away democracy in the UK? Cucumber sandwiches at a picnic, Maybe a knees up and sing song Nope , theres going to be 17.4 pretty pissed and volatile individuals looking to assert their view one way or another. It wont be pretty

Only a few ways to progress now - EFTA/single market type brexit (not ideal but better than Theresa May's nonsense, people's vote with option to remain...or if really honest and bold..admit that brexit was totally missold and revoke A50 to focus on real issues facing the UK.

definetly a general election. Get out all the traitors.

TakeBackControl

It does not matter,half the UK population will leave the EU on Thursday.

Fantastic to see

So what use is Theresa May now, is she just a lame duck Prime Minister? Will we see another motion relegating her to domestic issues or have we completely lost faith?

GlasnostGone Maybe the people should have a vote on whether to scrap the self-immolation that began with an illegal, corrupt campaign.

this vote was too close to call, can we have another vote to make sure no one changes their mind

General election coming

End of tory party

I'm not sure wtf is going on at this point. From what I'm reading, we're going round in yet another circle led by remainers wanting to bollocks everything up. Sitting here wondering, why do we even bother to vote?

xx

Anybody seen a modern-day Guy Fawkes? Just don't get caught this time

With all these defeats surely there is a case for there being another vote of confidence in the Government Although not sure we’d be any better off with the opposition

draintheswamp

Time to resign Theresa May!!

Tory antiSemitism. Jewish Councillor talks about her family's persecution during the holocaust. 18 Tory councillors walk out. Why are thousands of Mainstream and local journalists ignoring this?
