A group of Tory rebels are planning to vote against their own government in order to stop the setting of a Brexit deadline.

Twenty Conservative MPs have threatened to vote with Labour against an amendment to the Great Repeal Bill that would cement the Brexit time and date into UK law.

Now, initial reactions would be anger at their attempts to subvert the will of the people.

But, although it’s nice to have the certainty of the time and date set in a statute, it might not really be that important.

Under the terms of Article 50, if the UK and EU have not reached an agreement by two years after the EU Council of Ministers was notified of our intent to leave, the treaties no longer apply to us, we are out anyway by the 30th March 2019.
