The will of the majority of the people had to be acted on,despite the usual suspects throwing their toys out of the pram. |  |

Hasn't been to the Lords yet, or through committee and third reading. Passed second reading today. The Bill can still be amended and/or defeated.
But yes it'll go ahead eventually, for better or worse only time will tell. |  |

Of course it can technically be blocked, as ECB said but it'll never happen.
Nice to see the SNP motion failed dismally. |  |

I blame Merkin and her ego.
No migrant crisis - no Brexit. |  |

Democracy rules,it was the correct decision.
Quite a few rebel Welsh Labour MPs will now lose their positions as a result of going against the party line and not voting in support of Brexit.

Mind there's a lot in this country that would like to see Brexit be a massive failure, they'd much rather that than be proved wrong by a load of Racist F^ckwits. |  |

Good for them for voting with their consciences and not slavishly supporting the party line. Like Corbyn did hundreds of times before he became leader. | |

They didn't vote did they? Well that one from Swansea didn't anyway. |  |

Abstention is as good as voting against on a three line whip. Geraint Davies was on Radio 5 earlier and was adamant he'd be voting against. Whether he did in the end or not I don't know. | |

Well they were told it was their duty to respect and back the referendum outcome and vote pro Brexit.
I've got no problem with their protest vote but losing 20 MPs from the Labour Party is going to be a headache to fill those positions again...all it's achieved is seriously weakening the leadership of Corbin and the Labour party itself...not good. | |

What about the ones that voted against, when their constituents overwhelmingly voted to Leave, last June?
I'm looking at one from Rhondda, specifically.. | |

How will the Labour Party lose 20 MPs as a result of this? | |

The will of an MP's constituents should override any MP's own conscience, if he feels he can't he/she should resign.
They were voted into power to represent the wishes of the people that voted them into parliament, and not their own personal views. | |

I still believe they have a right, maybe even a duty, to vote according to what they believe is right, whether that accords with their constituents' views or not. Their constituents will have their say on that the next time they stand for election. | |

I don't agree but I respect your view. I believe an MP should vote the way his conscience dictate and if his constituents don't like those votes and positions they can remove that MP at the next election. | |

Sorry not 20 lost but quite a few prominent Labour MPs have resigned their position tonight...
Quite a few more are expected to follow suit over the next few days.
Chaos ahead for Labour and Corbyn? | |

The only duty they have is to listen to the voice of their constituents, and vote accordingly. | |

They've resigned from various shadow ministerial positions. They're still MPs and they're still Labour MPs. | |
