#3Is this something that could split the conservative party between those in more UKIP-populated districts and those in more LibDem dominated ridings? What if the LibDems start campaigning in those ridings where they are strong in order to pressure those MPs? It wouldn't be in the interest of the LibDems as a party (who would benefit from backlash against triggering article 50), but it would be in the collective interest of individual LibDem-leaning voters who want brexit not to happen.

#5Rather odd situation now. May was lukewarm on remaining, but may now be forced to whip her MPs into voting to leave.
And the MPs will be under pressure to do as people had voted in the referendum.
At the same time public opinion may well have moved.

#10As a passionate remainer, as much as I want this to mean something sensible I hold little hope it'll be nothing more than a side show.
