What are MPs voting on today and what does it all mean?

No. Despite extensive lobbying and fresh concessions from government ministers, the DUP has said it will still not vote for the deal. At least 20 Conservative Eurosceptics are also still vehemently opposed to the backstop part of the Withdrawal Agreement, which spells out how the Northern Ireland border will be kept open if no trade deal is agreed.

This is nothing more than a political stunt by May/govt on what was supposed to be Brexit Day. So MPs get another vote since “some” have changed their minds. What about the British public that may have changed their minds?
