The government has said a bill to stop a no-deal Brexit will complete its passage through the Lords on Friday.
The proposed legislation was passed by MPs on Wednesday, inflicting a defeat on Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
There were claims pro-Brexit peers could deliberately hold up the bill so it could not get royal assent before Parliament is prorogued next week.
But the Conservative chief whip in the Lords announced a breakthrough in the early hours after talks with Labour.

Er, I'm not at all sure (UK constitution being as inscrutable as ever) but I think Johnson may have just screwed over parliament but royally. If I understood the amendment correctly, parliament may have just stuck itself with May's deal. If so, Johnson gets his exit, with deal, and rids his party of a lot of dead weight. Then gets the election he seems to want, with the brexit party sidelined.

No exactly what I was getting at - there was a specific amendment passed yesterday. Eh, let me look it up and get back to you."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot

I realize you probably weren't endorsing per se. I'm just saying that nobody would use that descriptive quote in an advertising campaign.
Well, except maybe in satire. I could see the old Futurama cartoon having a billboard with that slogan next to a head shot of someone trying to fake a smile and a desperate pleading look in the eyes.

We need to keep an eye out on brother Piggy. Make sure he doesn't start ranting about saving the planet and "meat is murder" and needing a safe space. If he starts promoting facon, we need to put him out of his misery.
