UK MP’s vote against Brexit alternatives
UK MPs voted against the four potential alternative plans for the Brexit on Tuesday after rejecting the government’s three agreements with the European Union. After being out of the European Union, any proposal from maintaining a very close economic relationship, secondly referendum or preventing the break-up of any agreement, did not get a majority.
Altogether, 280 votes were cast in support of the second referendum, but against 292 votes. After this, the second highest 273 votes were in favor of the proposal to remain in a permanent ‘custom union’ with the European Union, but it did not get a majority after getting 276 votes against it.
After the voting, the government said that the results showed that its plan was best and indicated that it could be put before Parliament once again this week. Brexit Minister Stephen Berkeley told MPs after the voting that the Parliament once again failed to get a majority on any resolution.
He said that now the natural legal situation is that the UK will be expelled from the European Union without any agreement within just 11 days. Barclay said that the option to exit without agreement on April 12 would be a long extension, which means that the European Parliament will have to hold elections.
He said that if the ‘House of Commons’ agreed to the agreement this week, then perhaps there would be no need to hold the European Parliament elections. Conservative MP Nick Boles being upset after announcing to leave the party and being emotional, said that I tried my best to get a compromise.
He said that I accept that I failed. I mainly failed because my party refused to compromise. I am sorry to announce that I can not support this party anymore. Nick had proposed to have close relations with the European Union after the breakage.
