UK: The 'Grieve amendment' is a potentially interesting and consequential

development in the Brexit withdrawal debate in an otherwise dry session, that

could 'end proper Brexit'.

- Sun Political editor Tom Newton Dunn on Twitter: "Big news: [Conservative MP]

Dominic Grieve has asked for this amendment to be voted on tonight, Speaker is

deciding. If it wins, Parliament will have wrestled control of Brexit's

direction back from Govt if meaningful vote is lost."

- In other words, Grieve et al are attempting "to change the terms of what

happens if there is a second vote on the Brexit agreement (assuming for a moment

the first one is defeated)"... "Grieve wants to change the rules so that MPs

could not just give verdict on what govt proposing to do at that point, but to

instruct them instead" -BBC's Pol Editor Laura Kuenssberg on Twitter.

- Kuenssberg: "One Tory MP tells me 'if this gets thro that's the end of proper

brexit' - assumes MPs would propose and vote for customs union type arrangement

if May's plan falls next week"
