The Byzantine goings-on in the British parliament seem to be an instance in which the sidebars over-rule the main text.
The people of Great Britain voted to leave the EU. The Tories were in power then as well as now. They began hammering out an agreement with the EU, detailing the specifics of the leaving process. It took a couple of years to do this. The EU has said that the agreement is 'take it or leave without it'. The current Prime Minister has stated that the nation will leave the EU by October 31st of this year.
It seems to this overseas observer that there's little left to gnaw from the bones. Parliament will accept the agreement or it will not accept it. The 31st of October will see the end to the debate.
Meanwhile, there's article after article about this or that possibility.
