The week in parliament. Minister, David Cameron and this was before he called the referendum on our membership of the European Union whether he would meet us, because it was our argument that devolution was in very much Unfinished Business in the United Kingdom. We had devolved power in a very asymmetric way to Northern Ireland, scotland, wales, and london. We kind of finished and overlooked the rest of england. We started doing Coalition Years that the function of the house of lords is being a revising chamber hello and welcome. Was this the when no party had the majority was no longer working very effectively. And i remember literally saying to David Cameron, moment that mps are started to get irrespective of the outcome brexit done .

Now its time for a look back at the week in parliament. Hello, and welcome to the week in parliament. Was this the moment mps started to get brexit done . The ayes to the right, 330.

But first, a big moment for brexit. We are now a step nearer leaving the eu, at the end of this month. The bill to put borisjohnsons brexit deal into law cleared the house of commons on thursday evening. The ayes to the right, 330. The noes to the left, 231. So, the ayes have it, the ayes have it. A government majority of 99 thats what you might call a meaningful vote, after all the failed attempts to get the brexit deal through the commons. The Withdrawal Agreement bill covers divorce payments to the eu, Citizens Rights, customs arrangements for Northern Ireland and the planned 11 month transition period. Mps had spent three days debating the details. But with a majority of 80, no opposition attempts to change it stood a chance of success. That didnt stop them trying. Labour will continue to fight to protect the most vulnerable. We may not win many votes in Parliament Just now, but we can win the moral argument. And, of course, sir keir starmer hopes to do that as labour leader. Thurs
