BORIS Johnson will write to the EU to ask for another Brexit delay TONIGHT after Tory rebel Sir Oliver Letwin trashed his chance to make history today.
In a day of high-drama in the House of Commons, MPs voted for the Tory rebel’s wrecking amendment by 322 to 306, and torpedoed Boris' plans to pass a deal.
Super Saturday turned into Pointless Saturday after the Tory rebel sabotaged Boris' Brexit bid with Parliamentary antics.
Instead the PM must now ask the EU for a THIRD time to delay Britain's departure from the EU.
Boris had hoped that MPs would have finally backed a Brexit deal three YEARS after the public voted to leave, but instead they opted for yet more dither and delay.
The Government decided to cancel the main Brexit vote after the plot won the day - prompting disgusted Tory MPs to walk out of the chamber in dramatic scenes.
The Remainer plan will kick Boris' big Brexit vote into the long grass for another day until ALL the legislation to get us out of the EU is done.

It was a funny sort of conquest when the people who invited the so called conqueror William III presented him with a Bill if Rights binding him to respect the supremacy of Parliament and the limits of his authority, and made it clear to him that he and his wife where king and queen only by permission of Parliament.
My prediction is that the Queen will stand up for her nation and apologize for having spawned Charles and having benighted Paul McCartney.
She will then dissolve Parliament, apologize to the United States of America for its having been such a pain in the ass in the late 1700s, and demand that the European nations adhere to the conditions of the Peace of Westphalia and a certain number of the various Treaties of Paris.
Next she will bitch-slap Meghan Markle with a rather oversized handbag while high-fiving Boris Johnson and yelling, “Brexit Baby!”
Just a prediction.
“If that snaky Mittens Romney was forced into hiding with his extended Mormon family in Mexico (great-grandfather Miles Park Romney went there when polygamy was outlawed in Utah) and then invaded America with Mexican troops would you call that a revolution too?”
In this scenario, would America be being run by a dictator, in the pay of a foreign king or leader who was massacring people for sharing a similar religion/ideology of the majority of the population (as Louis XIV was with Huegonot French protestsnts) and increasing his grip on power by building up a massive standing army led by cronies, and would this army of Mexicans or whatever be coming in to restore constitutional governance and banish the creeping despotism of the madman running the country?
I guess nobody told them.
There remain, as of 2016, twelve (12) sovereign monarchies in Europe. Of these, seven are kingdoms: Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland are of pre-modern origin.Andorra
Belgium
Denmark
Liechtenstein
Luxembourg
Monaco
Netherlands
Norway
Spain
Sweden
United Kingdom
Vatican City
And here are some that are not Monarchies:
Germany,
Poland
France
Italy
Hungary
Austria
Czech Republic
Russia
They all used to have monarchs, now they don’t.
If the royalty world view had died in WW I, it would have had all the others on your list, then wouldn’t it have?
The way things are going, what said is as possible as anything!!
Brexit is a threat to the Antichrist world system.
It cannot be allowed to succeed.
Brexit is pretty definitely going to happen.
It isn’t conservative what will happen there afterwards though. They are to open to third world immigration to the UK, even more
Did you see Captain America - Winter Soldier?
Hydra says the same thing. They learned that if you try to take freedom away by force, people fight back.
But if you can convince them to give up their freedom willingly, for safety or benefits, then you only need to eliminate the minority who support freedom and your power is assured forever.
The EU will grant an extension....they need the UKs money.
What is your affection for the parasitic, inbred, thieving aristocrats?
Not really m this is about 9% of the budget. Nice but not a disaster if lost
I have no affection at all for the royal families of Europe. I am proud that my Paternal GGGG Grandfather, Moses, and GGG Grandfather, Robert, fought with Colonel William Campbell's Riflemen of Virginia who defeated the Tory Officer Ferguson at the Battle of King’s Mountain and mauled Lord Cornwallis' Army in the Guilford Courthouse Campaign which lead to his surrender at Yorktown.
I simply took issue with your rewriting history to say, like William the Conqueror, William II made a conquest of England when he was invited to take the throne with Queen Mary by Parliament as the rightful Protestant rulers to depose the Roman Catholic James II, and by that action ended the "divine right of kings", establishing the principle that sovereignty derived from Parliament, not at birth.
That seems like a big difference to me.
Meaning to say, could we have had a Colonial Revolution three quarters of a century later if the belief still held that George III ruled us by divine right? Possibly not.
To say that this was not an invasion is idiotic. They didn't use all this ships, weapons, and men to bring flowers and chocolates to the English. The size and power of the invasion force led the English to roll on their backs like whipped dogs. The Dutch stuck it to the English and gave it to them real good.
You claim that I am rewriting history when you ignore the salient, obvious, and irrefutable facts available to anyone with the curiosity to read.
The fact is King James II could not flee the country fast enough from his own people.
You are still taking abject surrender as a revolution.
I never called it a revolution, they did in retrospect it appears. I would say it was more like a forgone assumption.
"Thailand's 67-year-old King Maha Vajiralongkorn has stripped his 34-year-old consort of all titles, less than three months after she was bestowed with the position in a bizarre kneeling ceremony. Former army nurse Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi was dismissed from the rank of ‘Chao Khun Phra’ for ‘disloyalty to the king,’ the Royal Gazette said, as well as ‘acting against the appointment of the Queen for her own ambitions.’ She was appointed the king's official consort after they met when she was part of his royal bodyguard - less than a year after he married the Queen of Thailand."

Are you on board with the 'right of the first night' — also known as jus primae noctis (law of the first night), droit du seigneur (the lord’s right), etc.? The financial records of every king and every manorial lord are full of fines paid by women at all levels of society to be allowed to choose their own husbands or to stay single. Your reverence for aristocracy is disgusting.
