More Brexit drama and perhaps the first signs that a second Brexit referendum is in the making. The BBC is reporting that a motion of no confidence in Commons Speaker John Bercow – who has been accused of ignoring Commons rules in allowing MPs to vote on the Grieve amendment – is now likely.
The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris take a quick look at a dramatic turn of events in the Brexit saga, as Wednesday’s vote increases the likelihood for another (second) Brexit referendum. Music to the ears of the Brussels globalists.

May’s government went on the attack after the amendment passed, accusing MPs of being “irresponsible” and attempting to “frustrate” Brexit preparations.
MPs however have vowed to support any subsequent parliamentary bid to prevent a no-deal Brexit.

Meanwhile in a stunning decision that is sure to be leveraged by multiple EU member states, the European Court of Justice has ruled that Britain is free to revoke Brexit unilaterally.

The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris take a quick look at how UK Prime Minister Theresa May has managed to unite pro-European Labour MPs and Brexiteer conservatives by refusing to release the full ‘legal advice’ provided by UK Attorney General Geoffrey Cox.

Theresa May’s early optimism after the EU and the UK agreed to post-Brexit terms, faded very quickly  once news of the agreement spread throughout the UK.
Irish Minister Harris commented in a brief speech that Theresa May will face difficult days ahead.
A Labour Party official confirmed that May’s deal does not offer enough to win their support.
The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris take a quick look at huge momentum swings in the Brexit fiasco for Theresa May.
