But in spite of that, the government ended up winning the vote 326 votes to 290. That is a government majority of 36.

But the bottomline, though, is the second readings are usually about broad brush principle is, not about the detail. That comes later in the Committee Stage and so forth. I suppose a lot of the conservative mps who do have concerns, ken clarke, anna soubry, Dominic Grieve and so on, they agree with the general principle that we need an orderly transfer of all the regulations from the eu books onto oui regulations from the eu books on
