De brexit deal van Johnson is nog geen wet mannen. Nog 10 dagen en ze zijn er niet.
Citaat:
Mr Johnson’s legislation, which has already been ratified by the House of Commons, is now passing through the House of Lords, which is seeking a number of amendments.
Lords voted by 270 to 229 in favour of a change put forward by the Liberal Democrats to offer eligible EU citizens in Britain an automatic right to stay after Brexit, rather than having to apply to the government to do so.
They then voted, by 241 to 205, to delete powers allowing lower courts the power to overturn rulings of the European Court of Justice.
Finally, Lords passed an amendment which would permit cases to be referred to the Supreme Court to adjudicate on whether to depart from EU case law.

Het hogerhuis is erg gericht op het verdedigen van de rechten van EU burgers en zit allerhande amendementen er aan toe te voegen, en keurt de deal niet goed tot die er bij zitten.
Het gaat nu terug naar het lagerhuis.
