The House of Commons voted by 312 to 308 to endorse an amendment which asked MPs if they opposed the prospect of leaving the European Union without a withdrawal agreement on March 29 under any circumstances. The motion does not change the law but represents a further significant blow to the authority of the prime minister, who had attempted to table a more moderate version which kept the prospect of no deal on the table.
