They will either vote to support Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal, negotiated with the European Union, and set the country on its final road to leaving the EU on March 29. Or they will vote against it, leaving the UK Parliament, and the country, in the state of limbo1 it has inhabited for two-and-a-half years. By every calculation and prediction, May will lose the vote.
