A more likely outcome is that the government will engage in negotiations with both the various factions in the UK parliament and the EU and that a somewhat tweaked deal will eventually pass through the UK Parliament. When we say tweaked deal we are referring to adjustments to the non-binding political declaration on the intentions with respect to the future EU-UK relationship annexed to the withdrawal agreement. The EU has repeatedly stated that the latter is not up for further negotiation. An additional EU Brexit summit might be required for the tweaks to be negotiated and approved. The Brexit debate amongst various factions in the UK parliament is also focusing on the envisaged future relationship with the EU. The start of negotiations within the UK Parliament will be the so called plan B that the government must table within 3 days after the rejection, since the plan is amendable. It is unclear when the vote on this plan is to take place, but legislation allows it to be even a month later, pushing uncertainty way into February.
