Theresa May's Brexit deal just lost in the Commons by 230 votes. This is huge - she's failed to convince her party, failed to convince Parliament and failed in her attempt to scaremonger MPs into backing her. It's the biggest loss in the Commons by a Government - ever.
Brexit is a national embarrassment.

We all remember waking up to that awful result two and a half years ago. We were all braced for uncertainty. But nobody could have predicted how disastrously the wheels came off the Brexit wagon.
Warnings of food and medicine shortages. Tearing up vital environmental laws. Becoming rule takers, not rule makers.

Two and a half years ago, on the steps of Downing Street, the Prime Minister promised to tackle society's burning injustices.
My constituents elected me to fight for a People's Vote and to keep our Union together.
I was glad to hear it. We could argue all day why people voted to Leave. But at the heart of it for many was a loss of faith in the basic promise that if you work hard and play by the rules, you'll get on in life.

The Prime Minister has spent 18 months putting together a compromise Brexit deal that doesn't deliver on what the Brexiteers promised and pleases no one.
Theresa May is making a mess out of Brexit and her deal is a national humiliation.
She doesn't have the support of her backbenchers, or of the DUP. Fifteen government ministers have now resigned over Brexit.

On Tuesday night, thanks to Lib Dem MPs, the Government lost on a Finance Bill for the first time in 41 years. We won a vote on a cross-party amendment that demonstrates to the Government that a majority of MPs are opposed to no deal.
It goes some way to taking no deal off the table, but it's crucial we remove it as an option full stop.
We will not stand idly by while the Conservatives destroy our economy, our NHS, our peace and security.
