Brexit - the agreement

The EU said that the last possible moment for an agreement which would allow the organizing of a summit this year was Wednesday night. An agreement was announced two hours ago.

Now Theresa May has to persuade her own ministers to support it, and then put it to the House of Commons for a vote. It is not clear that the Democratic Unionist Party leaders have seen it yet, and their support would no doubt be necessary for Theresa May to get a majority in the commons. If she does not get a majority in the commons, there could well be a general election, and it is very unclear who would win.
