I would stress that constitutionally parliament's vote on "no deal" is entirely irrelevant – the currently legal status is that the Treaties will cease applying to the UK on 29 March, regardless of the outcome of that vote. In other words…
func brexit(){
if(deal){
exit(deal);
} else {
if(!deal) {
exit(null);
} else {
if(postpone){
wait(TIME);
brexit();
} else {
exit(null);
}
}
}
}
However, this is subject to change. Motions can (and will) be amended.
