What happens now parliament has seized control of Brexit?
Members of the UK parliament before a vote on the prime minister's proposed Brexit deal, 12 March, 2019.MPs will have a chance to vote on their preferred Brexit outcome on Wednesday.
Theresa May had earlier shelved plans to hold a third vote on her Brexit deal after acknowledging there was not sufficient support for it to pass through the House of Commons, although she said she has not given up hope of holding the vote before the UK's scheduled exit on April 12.Reuters There is not currently a majority of support for the more extreme options, with parliament already having voted against no deal twice and most Tory and Labour MPs opposing a second referendum.
He said doing so would"potentially collide with fundamental commitments the government has given in [its] manifesto," but added that Wednesday's votes would"not be binding."Theresa May and the Conservative frontbench await the result of vote on her Brexit deal, March 12, 2019.A vote for a softer Brexit would not, therefore, mean a softer Brexit.
Although such a move would require a two-thirds Commons majority, Labour would struggle to oppose it having spent the last two years calling for exactly such a contest.
