Deal Vote, BBC Fee & ECHR Pledge

Good morning and welcome back to Heaver News.

Brake Vote

So next week will finally see MPs vote on Rishi Sunak’s ‘Windsor Framework’ agreed with the EU. Or at least an element of it.

Whilst some embarrassingly rushed out to endorse the Deal without even waiting to go through the detail, others have wisely waited.

So next Wednesday it will be interesting to see what the verdict is from ERG Brexiteer Tory MPs.

BREAKING MPs to vote on the 'Stormont brake' aspect of the Windsor Framework straight after Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday next week. How many Brexiteer Conservatives will rebel?

Also key of course will be how DUP MPs vote. What we know is that 73% of DUP voters reject the Windsor Framework overall.

Just 16% of DUP supporters are currently backing the Deal. It has clearly fallen short in their eyes. How will DUP MPs vote next week though?
