8:35 pm
a special program we're covering the latest crunch votes in politics. is the situation in the chamber this is a priest returning to the chamber after voting on the second amendment there will be three voters in the course of this evening. to have already happened we're waiting for the results of this and they were great in the studio is. white saying who didn't lose briggs's analyst and in london barbara vessel so let's start with you alex for us do whites unwarily upset ok so we've had the results of the second amendment that was the conservative plan to try to. almost five deal through and it has been defeated by three hundred seventy four votes to one hundred sixty four so that is now off the table was never going to fly anyway and been made pretty clear by the what happened before that was there was
8:36 pm
a first amendment that was tabled and in a surprise that has been voted through only by a majority of four votes three hundred twelve votes to three hundred eight and that's effectively takes a no deal brix it completely off the table indefinitely however it is a non-binding vote so it would still involve a change to legislation for that to happen but it complicates it for the government because they were trying to put through that own motion which is what m.p.'s are now facing for now which was their plan to takeoff to take a no deal off the table allowing m.p.'s a free vote so they could vote whichever way they wanted by had it's is this fall for that logic if the first vote means it's an it isn't indicative of the first of the first vote means that that it's a no deal. can be no deal breakers it's but it's known bindings that have to change
8:37 pm
the station but the point is this was a strong. motion. amendment have been tabled than the government's own one the government saying one would take it off at the moment but if you come back to it this first amendment is to say take it off for read so this will be a big blow to bricks it is all right bob levey so is is the starting by for us in london in the midst of this back to front world that we are living in what are you making of these results barbara. yeah i mean the ball toss amendment that was actually my favorite because it was the classic chip a cool tracksuit unicorn i mean this was pioneered the sky for bricks and cheers and it was obviously quite clear that was it would not carry a majority but great fun that they tried again to push this through said we want to every say we want cakes we want to leave without a deal we still want a transition period we'll pay a little bit of money for it and yes of course we don't want an irish backstop this
8:38 pm
is sort of like the true grex a dream that has gone down and the whole confusion about the first no deal amendment and then the one that we're now talking about and waiting for the government motion it shows that somehow the organization of government run away really seems to have broken down here behind the scenes because you would think that these days in the circumstances the country is in just too good to weeks away from bracks that they should sort of sit down and figure out how they're going to configure these votes these amendments and the the proposals they are table so that they will cost that makes sense in the end but no further comment on that one ok so the next vote that is on the government. to take no day off the table what are we expecting that barbara. yeah the point is that we're just hearing that the
8:39 pm
government might be whipping against its own and mentum and in order to sort of prevent the first one the stronger one it to carry sort of legal strings now that seems really sort of the point of the madness because you can't really explain that to a layman can you and it is just the paula mentary she net against going on there over in the house to reason may offer. should if they tried this afternoon to sort of sort this stuff out and it was too late the speaker said no everything is going to go ahead as it was originally tabled and now they have to sort of settle around and try to figure out what they're going to do so we might at the end of the night end was this non-binding first amendment that takes no deal off the table and really everybody involved has to put questions to themselves how much sense this is this
8:40 pm
makes how they want to explain this to their voters and what this really can mean in the end and how convincing they really still look. alex first was the barber is completely right it is absolute chaos in westminster what is happening tonight and unfolding is just chaotic completely chaotic and what what has happened is that because this first amendment was passed by only four votes it has altered the government's motion that they are putting down now they had to ritually given their m.p.'s a free vote saying you can vote however you want to on this now they have a three line whip saying you must vote against all own motion because if you vote for it it means that this first this amendment is going to take no deal off the table indefinitely and it's very clear the government still at some point wants to be have to say we're going to leave whatever with or without
8:41 pm
a deal so that is why it is so complicated and such a mess and confusing for anyone watching but that is effectively what you are seeing here is rule politics this is the government panicking thinking we cannot allow people to vote for our own motion because otherwise it is too complicated and we have no room for maneuver at all so what do we expect to happen or that is a good question because then if it is voted down tonight what will happen to this vote tomorrow night which is supposed to be about extending article fifty so delaying brix it i don't know then if the government would have to hold that vote as they had promised we have to wait and see but it is a complete mess it is a clear example of the state of british politics at the moment which is a complete mess there is no leadership even within the government no one is in control of parliament no one knows what is happening apart from the moment the u.k. is jus to leave the e.u. on the twenty ninth of march that is all i can tell you is that expensive the woman
8:42 pm
with the one hoards of certainty in this whole all right but no alex forces are watching here with their. barbara faisal in london thank you we will come back to you shortly when we get the results of this this latest of a quick line of sports while waiting by a unique take on the whole matter in an exciting champions league clash the german coach ewen club is facing a familiar from his years in the bundesliga after struggling at the start of the season by are back on top in germany and no no draw in the first leg means a ticket to the quarterfinals is still very much up for grabs. the pressure is on but it's all smiles at bae and head of liverpool's visit the team have put a difficult first half of the season behind them and have scored eleven goals in their last two games but coach nico covert she is aware that liverpool's trio of mohamed salah saadi i manage a andrew bird safe in the know are one of the most fearsome attacks in europe. and
8:43 pm
was we have to defend well and balance attack with defense because if you let one of their three forwards out of your sight it could be over and. done as his first. book has weapons of his own up front. thomas millar responded to being dropped from the germany team with a virtual performance on the weekend and rob eleven dollars he is back to his ruthless best but despite the threat you can club things liverpool's best chance is to make it a matter of attack is attack it's a first thing to do to create a situation where it's really an open game and if you have that we have a good chance if you have a good chance we will try to use it. two coaches with different outlooks and the time with old to play for in munich the stage is set for a champions league classic. while we can talk about records extend the sporting about wholesome talk about everything to play for him perhaps i think i've
8:44 pm
completely lost track of where we're up to so alex forrest a wife saying is here to guide us through she is our president analyst. is in london for us let's start with you barbara vocal for those who have just joined us let's do this is. a so so critically. what happened. here the vote is now going on the government. the government proposal however the government has with against its own motion now you think could things get any madder last night we saw you know we had sort of frege peak bunkers no. just going to be in another there is just. another highlight really of disorganization and just complete chaos in government because they somehow had all day to figure this out and they didn't manage behind the scenes to sort of pull the
8:45 pm
strings since it was people involved and figure out how do we do this how do we sort of get this passed without creating complete chaos and sort of release throwing people off i mean this is politics at their worst in the way that they are incompetent and bring forth results that in the in the end as sort of unmanageable so now the government whipped against their own motion that means that the motion will probably be defeated if the conservative members of parliament sort of stick to that if they let themselves be whipped into doing that and then watch then we have a non-binding. first amend the first amendment of the evening that says no deal no deal breck's it should be off the table bought but what next that a law would need to be passed it doesn't mean anything by itself it just sort of
8:46 pm
like you know giving an opinion about it and so we are still again we have the point where we can see where this whole thing is going and if you look at the reactions of european leaders yesterday off the trees may lost the vote again so dramatically in parliament the vote about the straw poll deal they said now. the no deal directed really comes closer i saw this probably exaggerated and now it seems that really by default britain might just by sheer chaos but sheer incompetence of the government and the political leaders slide into a no deal. your assessment of having reached a peak because i think it's a little optimistic got to i think there's a lot more ball has to go yet. yeah i mean barber is completely right i think that buy into force at the moment we are heading towards
8:47 pm
a no brics it dale jess phillips who is a labor m.p. has tweeted i just watched the prime minister going into a vote for no deal i told her it was a disgrace i hope she is gone by morning now the reason why i'm reading that out is because today the prime minister's questions even though she had very little voice she said she will be voting for the government's motion that was to take no deal off the table now she has just gone through to vote for no deal so that just shows you how chaotic it is within government and they also worried she is so worried about removing no deal altogether so it is absolutely chaotic and it doesn't look so chaotic at the moment as they are all in waiting for this phone. but it is chaos in parliament with the whips you were trying to persuade those m.p.'s who were going to vote against a no deal to vote for a no dale i'm just waiting for that result come through but it's been
8:48 pm
a top see turvy world tonight so that's that the pictures that we're seeing of the chamber of the house of that is what is happening there we're waiting for the results of the but the main event yes and the government's the government's motion was was the government's motion a richly but remember it's been amended because if this other the first amendment a richen it was that this house declines to approve leaving the european union without a withdrawal agreement and a framework for the future relationship on the twenty ninth of march twenty nineteen a notice that leaving without to do remains the default in u.k. and e.u. law unless this house and the e.u. ratify an agreement so what was expected was the what was expected this time yesterday we were saying that it was likely that the no deal would be voted out correct so where are we now so because of the phone so an amendment to that was was voted on before and it said there should be no deal should be
8:49 pm
removed all together not just for the twenty ninth of march but plan and because of that we are now seeing the government saying you cannot vote for our own motion because it has been amended and we still need to have to threaten the e.u. and everyone else that we can still leave without to dale i'm getting very excited here but it just it is absolute chaos and nobody knows obviously no really i was literally broke i was looking up just because i see the mall is there a couple of people standing in front of it is better still by the loitering i say i thought that we were about the vote we were about to get a result but it looks like they're just to the point. we. are waiting for this vote but the fact that you've got even the prime minister voting against her own motion a. motion that she's putting band tonight take no deal off the table she has voted
8:50 pm
against it has self so nobody at this precise moment knows what the planets so bob are available in london it's sounds like in this topsy turvy world of peak ball because there is no point in even thinking about making a pretty in fact sorry let's go to the chamber of the house of commons it looks like we have a result looks like the tellers are approaching the front of the house. yeah i said the right three to one the most the left two hundred seventy eight yeah . these are ways to the right three hundred twenty one the new still the last two
8:51 pm
hundred seventy eight so the eyes have eight the eyes have eight although. i don't think. you can have despite the government's best intention a week these. are no points good to speak of. thousands today provides a clear majority against leaving the house a deal however i will repeat as i have said before i. was. am. the house was comin so. for a long time to go it was a subsequent use eat because it's the prime minister to speak of these these are about the choices that this house faces. could be good folks to be able to force the u.k. into you know remains that the u.k. will leave the e.u.
8:52 pm
without a deal. unless something else is agree to the onus is now on every one of us in this house to find out what. the options before us are the same as they always have. we could leave we could leave with the deal which this government is negotiation because to yes we could leave with the teal we have to go say to the subject to a second referendum but that is risk no cracks it has all. damaging down the tree the side. trust between the project. manager damaging the fragile trust between the british public and the members of these. three could six negotiate a different deal however the e.u.
8:53 pm
has been clear that the deal on the table is indeed the only deal available to artists think i also can try right all to the great like preferred to wait for comment. but i think i can say this without fear of contradiction is that will be further opportunities for these matters to be to beijing but in the media terms police let us have some courtesy of us i think we can be sure there will be further debate on these matters the prime minister the speaker i also confirmed last night that if the house declines to approve leaving without a deal on the twenty ninth of march twenty nine thousand the government would bring forward a motion on whether the house support seeking to agree an extension to ask for fifty with the e.u. which is the logical consequence of the votes over the past two days in this house the leader of the house will shortly make an emergency business statement confirming the change tomorrow is business the motion we will table will set out the fundamental choice facing this house if the house finds a way in the coming days to support a deal it would allow the government to seek
8:54 pm
a short limited technical extension to article fifty two provides time to pass the necessary legislation and trashing far the agreement we have reached with the e.u. . but let me be clear such a short technical extension is only likely to be on offer if we have a deal in place therefore the house has to understand and accept that if it is not willing to support a deal in the coming days and as it is not willing to support leaving without a deal on the twenty ninth of march then you just suggesting that there would need to be a much longer extension to asco fifty such an extension. would undoubtedly require the united kingdom to hold european parliament elections. i know my. own i do not think that would be the right outcome. but the house.
8:55 pm
the house needs to face up to the consequences. i. think the prime minister for what she said. poor mr jermyn go in here mr speaker mr speaker tonight this house has once again definitely ruled or no deal the prime minister said the choice was between good deal and no deal in the last twenty four hours ok so that's jeremy called of the. leader of the opposition speaking out we've got less in less than twenty seconds alex far as well i think i'll translate what we just heard from the prime minister she is basically basically still saying that the legal to full remains at the u.k. needs without a deal on the twenty ninth of march and that there was something in place tomorrow m.p.'s will get a chance to vote on whether to delay for exit but we are waiting to hear exactly what that will be i'm the final word from the you in london and twenty seconds your
