  • Brexit: This is how Boris Johnson's agreement affects the Spaniards in the United Kingdom and the British in the EU

"Either you support my agreement or we leave the EU without agreement," is the message Boris Johnson has sent to Parliament on the eve of the decisive vote scheduled for Saturday. The "premier" needs a majority of 320 votes , which would only be possible with the 28 "Spartans" of the hard wing of his party, the 21 "rebels" expelled three weeks ago and at least a score of Labor supporters of Brexit.

The 10 deputies of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) confirmed on Friday that they will not abstain, but will vote against the Johnson agreement because they believe it endangers "the economic and constitutional integrity of the United Kingdom" by creating an internal border in the Sea of ​​ireland.

John McDonnell, Jeremy Corbyn's left hand for economic affairs, anticipated the vote against the Labor opposition on the grounds that the agreement does not protect environmental and workers' rights and opens the door to future trade barriers with the EU .

A group of 19 Labor, signatories of a letter to the EU showing their willingness to vote in favor of the agreement, could however break the party discipline and facilitate the approval of the agreement.

The divisions between Labor and the indecision of Jeremy Corbyn himself have left the possibility of a vote, on Saturday, on the holding of a second referendum. Thousands of protesters will go to the last pro-European demonstration of People's Vote, which will break in Parliament early Saturday afternoon.

Divisions between opposition forces have come into view following the Twitter message of Scotland's independence leader and prime minister Nicola Sturgeon : "I have a real suspicion that Labor would be happy to see how the agreement moves forward. officially, but they will allow a few "rebels" to give up the necessary votes. "

Despite having suffered seven parliamentary defeats in three months, Boris Johnson was "optimistic" about the possibility of voting in favor of his agreement in Westminster. The "premier" has undertaken in recent hours an offensive not only to get Labor votes, but to gain the support of most of the 21 "Tories" expelled for blocking the "no deal" and the noisy members of the European Research Group (ERG), led by Steve Baker, who thwarted Theresa May's agreement in her three attempts.
