"Regrettably the choice facing people now is to accept the Prime Minister's bad deal, or do we not leave the European Union at all. And I've said for some time that if that were the option I would back her deal because we must leave and her deal provides that we legally leave even if it has significant disadvantages to it. But that is better than remaining in the European Union. And unfortunately the Prime Minister has taken leaving without a deal off the table."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Jacob Rees-Mogg, UK Conservative MP for North East Somerset:
"Well I'm thinking changing my name to Jacob Rees-Deckchair and you can see which folds up faster. You're actually right. I don't think the deal is any good. All the criticisms I've made of it I stand by and I included those in the article I wrote for The Daily Mail. But when you're faced with a choice of two bad options, you have to choose the one that is least bad and at least we would be legally out of the European Union. And that's a point from which you can improve things. You can then make it better. Whereas if you've never left the European Union, if a referendum of seventeen point four million people - a general election where both parties said they would back the result - doesn't lead to us leaving, when will we ever get out. So if the choice genuinely is this deal or remaining, it ends up not being that difficult a choice."

STORYLINE:
Conservative lawmaker Jacob Rees-Mogg, who has sought a complete break from the European Union, said he would rather accept the UK Prime Minister's "bad deal" than to risk not leaving the EU at all.
His comments came as British lawmakers were preparing to vote Wednesday on multiple options for leaving the European Union as they sought to bring some clarity to the country's tortured Brexit process.
In the wake of two overwhelming defeats for Prime Minister Theresa May's withdrawal agreement with the EU, the House of Commons has taken control of the parliamentary timetable in the hope of finding a way through the impasse.
"When you're faced with a choice of two bad options, you have to choose the one that is least bad and at least we would be legally out of the European Union," said Rees-Mogg.
But the Conservative lawmaker said he would not back the deal unless Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionist Party decided to vote for it.
The DUP, which has 10 seats in the House of Commons, said Tuesday that it still wasn't prepared to support the "toxic" deal.
Wednesday's votes in Parliament could potentially produce conflicting and inconclusive results.
But they could push Britain in the direction of a softer Brexit that keeps Britain closely tied economically to the EU, which would probably require the U.K. to seek a longer delay.
Responding to comments about his previous dismissal of the deal, Rees-Moss said: "I'm thinking changing my name to Jacob Rees-Deckchair and you can see which folds up faster."
