The different scenarios faced by the Boris Johnson government after losing the majority in Parliament

British Prime Minister, Conservative Boris Johnson, suffered a severe blow Tuesday by passing legislation to block a "brexit" without agreement as a de facto motion of confidence, after losing the majority in Parliament.

A group of rebel deputies from their own party and from the opposition vetoed the possibility of the UK leaving the European Union (EU) abruptly and Johnson considered that he has no more assets to continue negotiating with Brussels and summoned new elections, predictably for October 14.

WHAT VOTED THIS NIGHT?

Parliamentarians voted around the 21:00 GMT time, a motion that allowed them to take control of the parliamentary agenda.

With this result, tomorrow Wednesday will begin the processing of the law against a hard "brexit".

The legislation must also pass through the House of Lords and it would take several days to pass all parliamentary procedures.

Parliament must urgently debate the law, given that the prime minister has ordered the closure of Parliament from next week, until October 14.

WHO HAS MOST IN THE CHAMBER?

Thanks to support of the ten parliamentarians of the Norwegian DUP, the prime minister counted until now with the scarce majority of a single deputy, reason why the change of bed of Phillip Lee left him in minority.

Johnson was anyway destined to lose because, during the vote, a total of 21 conservative deputies declared themselves in absentia and voted against the government.

Johnson's situation in Parliament can be further aggravated if he fulfills his threat of expel from the parliamentary group the "tories" who vote in favor of the law against a hard "brexit".

CAN ANY ELECTIONS BE INVOLVED?

Downing Street, the official office of the prime minister, had emphasized in the last hours that if the deputies vetoed the possibility of an "un negotiated" brexit, the government would try to convene elections to try to recover a parliamentary majority.

Johnson decided to return to take the reins of Parliament presenting a motion tonight to vote tomorrow for a call for elections.

Needs to two thirds of the House of Commons to summon them, so it is essential the approval of the Labor Party.

Their leader, Jeremy Corbyn, suggested Monday that he is willing to face Johnson at the polls, although some voices, like the former prime minister Tony Blair, have warned that it could be a "trap" for Labor.

In the last hours there have been speculations that Labor could not approve elections if they were to vote tomorrow, but would wait for Parliament to pass legislation against a hard "brexit".

If Wednesday the Commons agreed to an election, the Government could try to suspend the sessions before the law is finished.

WHO WOULD BE THE FAVORITE IN AN ELECTION?

Since Johnson came to power in late July, Conservatives have escalated in the polls, while Labor and liberal Democrats have remained stable.

Thanks to his hard message about the exit of the EU, he has collected votes on everything from the Brexit Party, which is committed to a non-negotiated break.

A survey published by the firm YouGov last week indicates that conservatives would win elections with 34% of the vote, Labor would get 22%, the Liberal Democratic Party 17% and the Brexit Party 13%, according to that study.

WOULD YOU DO JOHNSON CAMPAIGN FOR A "BREXIT" WITHOUT AGREEMENT?

The prime minister argues that its priority is to renegotiate the "brexit" agreement with Brussels and ratify it in Parliament before the deadline, October 31st.

In an electoral campaign he would foreseeably defend that position, although he would underline that in case of reaching an agreement, it will break ties with the EU on the same scheduled date.

Johnson will try to convince the British society sector that in opinion studies it shows signs of exhaustion with the "brexit" and wants politicians to materialize as soon as possible the exit of the block.

Thanks to a message in that regard, the Brexit Party won the elections to the European Parliament last May with 31.6% of the votes in the United Kingdom, while the conservatives suffered a vote of punishment and added only 9.1% of the votes.
