MPs are expected to hold their crucial vote on Theresa May’s Brexit deal next Tuesday, with a Brexit minister insisting the government still expects to win the support of parliament, despite intense pressure from both sides of the argument.
With the debate on May’s plan, postponed from December, due to resume this Wednesday, the Commons had been expected to hold a vote next week. The date has now been set for next Tuesday, 15 January, government sources said.
