Its been a busy post-US Brexit headline session so far:
- More on May's talks with Labour on breaking Brexit deadlock likely to fail
- Brexit - UK House votes to require May to seek an extension beyond April 12, Lords to vote on it next
- UK House of Commons passes bill to block a no deal Brexit
- Brexit - UK press on likely Cabinet dummy spits if May asks for long extension
- UK Brexit - parliament votes are in
- UK Times reports May's talks with Corbyn to break Brexit logjam likely to fail
- More Brexit - Hammond says there is a credible case for a confirmatory referendum
- Brexit: UK fin Min Hammond says Brexit delay will inevitably be long
- More Brexit voting begins - to force UK PM May to seek another delay, prevent no-deal exit April 12
- Brexit: DUP UK MP Donaldson appears to hold out the prospect of his party supporting a customs union
Read from the bottom up for the chronology.
The latest is that the UK House of Commons have passed a bill to have the Prime Minister request a further extentison to Article 50, beyond April 12 so as to avoid a hard no deal Brexit.
Bill passed 313 to 312. Yeah, that close.
Its off to the House of Lords now for their their vote, perhaps on Thursday but no time/date is as yet scheduled.
GBP, meanwhile, creeping back towards its high (on this short term chart anyway):
