Blexfraptor Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 British Prime Minister Theresa May announced on Monday that Parliament will vote on the 'brexit' agreement on 11 December. After days of speculation about the date, which was only known to be before the Christmas break, the conservative premier confirmed that the so-called "significant vote" will take place on the second Tuesday of December in the House of Commons. "On December 11 this House will face the decision of whether or not it wants to comply with the vote of the British with an agreement that not only responds to that (the result of the June 2016 referendum), but also protects the jobs" said May in the House of Commons. Our duty as Parliament in these coming weeks, said May, is to examine this agreement in detail, discuss it with respect, listen to our constituents and decide what is most important for us. The prime minister appeared today in Westminster after yesterday the Twenty-seven gave the approval to his agreement of the 'brexit', that must be ratified by the House of Commons and by the European Parliament. The conservative president submitted to the questions of the deputies for more than two hours, in which he tried to persuade them to vote in favor of their agreement on December 11, something that a priori seems complicated. Before the vote there will be a debate about the agreement that will last five days and that will begin on December 4. The pact agreed by May with the European Council is rejected by dozens of parliamentarians of its group, the Labor opposition and the Northern Irish Unionist Democratic Party (DUP), of which the "Tories" depend to govern. "Our duty as Parliament in these coming weeks, said May, is to examine this agreement in detail, discuss it with respect, listen to our constituents and decide what is most important for us."
