MPs seize control of Brexit process by backing indicative votes amendment
Amendment giving MPs a series of votes on alternatives to May’s Brexit deal passes 329 votes to 302
MPs have seized control of the parliamentary timetable for a series of “indicative votes” on the next steps for Brexit – but Theresa May declined to say whether she would abide by the outcome.
An amendment tabled by former Tory minister Oliver Letwin passed, by 329 votes to 302 on Monday night, defeating the government, as MPs expressed their exasperation at its failure to set out a fresh approach.
