6:51 pm
final vote on any deal that is reached by david davis and theresa may over in brussels. and that vote, we expect in the next ten minutes or so. we expect in the next ten minutes or so. the key for those people who have put forward this amendment is that parliament should get a meaningful vote that would potentially throw any deal back at brussels if parliament does not feel that brexit bill is worth it. and something that they believe should go forward as far as this country is concerned. that is the vote we are expecting to take place in about ten minutes time. we will show you live shot of the debate that is going on. stephen kinnock earlier, the labour party... and what the vote will signify is whether or not mps should
6:52 pm
have the constitutional right to be involved in deciding whether or not there should be a continuation of discussions on the brexit deal. bless you little bit of the debate. we can indeed take back control and we're set the sovereignty of this place, which is what 70 million people voted for on the 23rd ofjune 2016. i must push on because we are moving towards the deadline. having paid tribute to the right honourable members for what they are doing this evening, i would commend the terms of amendment seven to the house and i would be honoured to go through the division lobbies with those right honourable and honourable members this evening. the house will know that from my point of view, we
6:53 pm
cannot get out of the european union fa st cannot get out of the european union fast enough. time and again, i have said that we need to be ready on day one and prepare for every eventuality, deal or no deal. regional deal global deal. we have to rememberwhy it regional deal global deal. we have to remember why it is we are taking back control. because of the vision we have for our country and our values... 0k, they are still debating. the vote will be in about ten minutes. our chief political correspondent is in west mr. it is good to see you. —— westminster. correspondent is in west mr. it is good to see you. -- westminster. we have been watching things very closely to see what is going on in the chamber. sorry, i have real trouble hearing. it is very noisy as the mps get ready to vote. i can see jeremy corbyn running through central lobby as they prepare for the vote. it seems as though the government at the very last minute has offered a concession, essentially saying the government will not use is extra powers until
6:54 pm
after the brexit date. i was in there watching from the press gallery. as he got up to say this, tory rebels said, it is too late, it is too late. dominic greene, who has been leading most of this, says he will not back down. the question is whether that will peel off some of the conservative rebels we have been speaking to through the day, many with a very heavy heart, prepared to rebel against their government for the first time, for some of them, in decades of being an mp. they seem to be holding firm at the moment and that would mean at the feet for theresa may, the first since she has been prime minister, the first time for the passage of this bill. i'm sure many of those mps are getting a lot of top. we have seen senior mps going in there to plead with them and talk to them, to say to them, don't do this. that she does need to have the support of her mps. particularly on the eve of her going off to brussels for another of those summers. off to brussels for another of those summers. i'm not sure it will work on this one. some of those tories sale will put their country before
6:55 pm
their party. —— say that. if you heard an mp saying that, there not a novel what you can do to persuade them. i mean, is this what really about... hearing in mind theresa may has made it clear there will be a meaningful vote for both houses of parliament, is this vote really more about her credibility and standing and her authority, just, what, couple of days before going to what is interesting is that these conservative mps have made no secret about the fact this is the issue that has dismayed them most. it is not a surprise to the government. they have said all along and they have compromised on other areas, they have not pushed to avoid many things they wanted changed. on this particular one, they feel they have given the government plenty of notice, that they want more than a vote that just says yes or notice, that they want more than a vote thatjust says yes or no to the deal and the withdrawal agreement. they want more than that. they want a recognition that this will be a
6:56 pm
bill that they can look at and look through all the details. that they can change if they want to. they do not want it to be too late for them to alter this. of course, opponents, angering some in the conservative party, say they are just using this asa party, say they are just using this as a chance to delay brexit and put it off completely, maybe. they say thatis it off completely, maybe. they say that is not the case. they say that the agulla to be made by brexiteer blind—mac for decades in some cases leaving the years all about bringing power back to this place. they say tonight is the moment they want to vote for that. thank you for that. weeks back the vote in about five minutes. some usersjust weeks back the vote in about five minutes. some users just come weeks back the vote in about five minutes. some usersjust come in. dominic raab is saying that... reflecting the mood in the house and having taken advice, the government is willing to return to report stage with an amendment on face of bill under clause nine and will not enter into force until there is a meaningful vote. into force until there is a meaningfulvote. dominic into force until there is a meaningful vote. dominic greene says

it is too late, you cannot treat the housein it is too late, you cannot treat the house in this fashion. the suggestion that a concession was being made by the government but it seems perhaps that concession has come a little bit too late. that voters in about five minutes. no time for the weather. —— and now it is time for the weather. we're not quite done with the winter byes—mac teal. more snow for a number of areas byes—mac teal. more snow for a number ofareas in byes—mac teal. more snow for a number of areas in the british isles. the big picture gives you a sense that there is a novel lot of whether to be had at the moment. various bands of whether moving across the uk. many of you got tangled up in that. there was a lull in proceedings, and now things are brewing again. it looks like there could well be and other incursions of snow to quite low levels. following on behind, there are more pulses of snow getting into areas of wales, north—west england, northern ireland and into the western side of
6:58 pm
scotla nd ireland and into the western side of scotland as well. over to the east, the skies might stay clear, especially across the eastern side of scotland. couple of spots coming to the east midlands and east anglia. again, very close to 0 degrees, if not a fraction below in some cases. this is how we start the new day. having had that moisture come through as rain or snow overnight, there will be further issues on untreated surfaces with ice, dawn and your commute as well. we have been here before this week. those icy patches might not be in the same locations they have been in in recent days. 20 shelters around quite wintry across higher ground in scotland. even to quite low levels in the central belt as well, we keep an eye on that because that could be quite persistent with problems through the day. quite windy through northern, western and southern coastal areas. but a bit of sunshine baby had that does not do much for temperatures. while some were in
6:59 pm
double figures on wednesday, that will not be the case on thursday. on friday, the isobars move from north to south and that will be the floor of the wind. that means it is coastal areas that get the peppering of showers down the spine of the country. a lot of dry and bright weather but again, it does nothing for those temperatures. we start on that cold note as we get into the weekend and then we see milder air flowing in from the atlantic. to the extent that the temperatures, through saturday and sunday, will bump up by two or three degrees at the very least. you're watching beyond 100 days. democrats celebrate victory in alabama where they have returned one of their own to the senate. it is a blow for president trump, steve bannon and other republicans who campaigned for the controversial candidate roy moore. a democrat elected in the deep south is a big
