Yesterday MPs voted in favour of Boris Johnson’s exit bill but rejected the government’s Brexit timetable.

The Prime Minister’s withdrawal agreement bill passed its second reading in the House of Commons.

MPs will now scrutinise and vote on amendments to the bill.

However, MPs rejected Johnson’s programme motion to fast-track the deal through parliament in time for next week’s 31 October deadline.

The Prime Minister’s promise Brexit would happen at the end of this month looks further at risk after European Council President Donald Tusk tweeted he will recommend the bloc accepts an extension request.

Wes Streeting, Labour MP for Ilford North, voted against both the withdrawal agreement and the timetable.

Wes Streeting voted against the withdrawal bill and the timetable

In a statement on Twitter, he said: “Boris Johnson’s deal is even worse than Theresa May’s. I won’t let him sell working people down the river.”

Mr Streeting also took a swipe at the Prime Minister for "throwing his toys out of the pram" following the defeat of the programme timetable.

Iain Duncan Smith, MP for Chingford and Woodford Green, voted for the withdrawal agreement and the accelerated timetable.

Speaking in parliament before the vote, he said: “The honest truth is we are faced tonight with two votes on a simple question.

“Do we now want to give the reality to the vote in 2016 and the British people voted to leave the EU if we delay it one more time not only will we have defied them, worse than that the British people will utterly lose faith with this place which I think has to be there representative body but will seem to them to be no longer.”

John Cryer, Labour MP for Leyton and Wanstead, also voted against the bill and the timetable.
