BREAKING: Theresa May pulls third Brexit meaningful vote after DUP refuses to back deal
Downing Street had hoped to pass the deal this week in order to avoid a new Brexit cliff edge.
However, May insisted that she would still like to attempt to bring a third meaningful vote back at some point later this week, if possible. May also met with Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn on Tuesday. Corbyn told the prime minister that he would not support bringing the deal back for a vote this week. He also said that he opposed a suggestion from May to separate the Withdrawal Agreement from the accompanying political declaration.
The decision comes ahead of a vote on Monday evening in which MPs plan to seize control of the Brexit process from the government.
