LONDON - Britain’s 800-year-old parliament has a big decision to make, and little time to make it.
Rich in pageantry and theater, Westminster’s parliamentary format has been adapted, modernized and exported to more than two dozen countries across the globe. “There’s now a live battle between the government as the executive and the membership of the parliament about who has control,” said Pete Wishart, a member of parliament from the Scottish National Party.On March 12, May is expected to try once more to get her deal approved, though much will rest on whether she can secure extra assurances from Brussels about the thorny issue of Northern Ireland’s border.
“This is the first time the public decided in a referendum something that was not what most members of parliament were in favor of - that is this challenge we’re having - this is the argument between government and parliament,” said Mark Harper, a lawmaker with the ruling Conservatives and former minister.
Since then, May has been buying time by promising to report on progress in EU negotiations on a fortnightly basis, while lawmakers across parliament concoct plans to break the deadlock. Outside parliament, frustration among voters on all sides is growing with a system seen by many as opaque, incomprehensible and flunking the biggest decision of their lifetimes.
