Washington Post: “After cobbling together a compromise Brexit deal with his European counterparts, Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Saturday went before his toughest audience yet: the unwieldy and willful British Parliament.”
“Lawmakers gathered in Westminster Palace on “Super Saturday” for a rare sitting of the House of Commons — as hundreds of thousands of protesters were preparing to march on the streets of London to demand a second Brexit referendum.”
“It could be a day of reckoning for Johnson. The prime minister could get his “meaningful vote” on his new Brexit deal. Or clever lawmakers could outflank him and pass an amendment requring more scrutiny of the pact’s detail — and force Johnson to ask the Europeans for another delay, beyond the Oct. 31 deadline.”
