Theresa May’s claims that it is essential to respect the result of the referendum looking very ropey after it emerges she opposed the establishment of the Welsh Assembly even after the people of Wales had voted to establish it.

Based on the below article from the guardian on "How your MP is likely to vote" - it's quite an embarrassing defeat for May.

For May's Deal - 216

Against May's Deal - 423

Whatever May may claim, she is advocating ideological dogma over reasoned judgement - she deserves to be fried in oil tomorrow.

What time is this vote likely to happen tomorrow?

 

 

When has the vote been rescheduled for?

The vote was originally expected to take place on Tuesday 11 December at around 7pm. But now the debate has resumed, with the meaningful vote penciled in for Tuesday 15th January. Although exact timings are yet to be confirmed, it is expected to take place between 7pm-9pm.

The Prime Minister's official spokesman said that Mrs May would observe the "spirit" of the EU Withdrawal Act, which requires her to make a statement to the Commons "before the end of January 21" if no agreement in principle has been reached with Brussels.

There was confusion at Westminster over whether the January 21 deadline applied, as a withdrawal deal has been reached. But Commons authorities suggested it did not, saying that in principle the ratification vote could take place as late as March 28 - the day before Brexit is scheduled to happen.
