Tory rebellion widens over Boris Johnson's bill to override Brexit deal

Downing Street is facing a showdown with Conservative backbench rebels as criticism over its plans to break international law with a new controversial bill that could override parts of the Brexit withdrawal agreement grew louder on Sunday.
It is understood that opposition among the party is growing, with dozens of Tory MPs expected to support a key amendment to the internal market bill that would give parliament a crucial veto of any changes to the agreement.
MPs will have an opportunity to air their opposition during a second reading and debate of the bill on Monday, when it will also be put to a vote before passing to committee stage. A number of Tory MPs intend to abstain on Monday’s vote, with up to 30 expected to back the amendment tabled by Sir Bob Neill, chair of the justice select committee, next week.
Once again we see clueless tories lie and cheat their way out of a problem that they created. There is no solution to Northern Irelands issues caused by Brexit, there never was and the whole brexit shitshow never took it seriously.
And now we get deeper and deeper into conservative shit and they are fighting amongst themselves. I fuckin love it.
