The effect of the Letwin amendment. The bill will now be salami sliced to death and we will be back at yet another impasse needing an election or referendum to change the dynamic.


I don't get that either. How does tying symbolic approval of the deal to the passage of the withdrawl bill "salami slice" anything? Is it simply that a short delay allows for greater scrutiny of the bill? That seem greatly preferable to a bill rushed through with little thought.
