Earlier this week, the House of Commons took the parliamentary agenda away from Ministers. Backbench MPs now have a chance to begin the journey towards a viable way out of this Brexit mess.
Today, MPs will take control of what the House of Commons debates so that all the various Brexit options can be scrutinised.
One motion tabled is to prevent the UK implementing Brexit unless a deal is approved in a confirmatory referendum. Clearly this referendum must include the option to remain in the EU. MPs are pressing Labour and others to do the right thing and support this.
The votes tonight are the beginning of a process, with further votes to whittle down options again next Monday. It’s crucial we maximise support for a People’s Vote, so please do what you can to let everyone know.
Several options have been tabled and the Speaker, John Bercow, will select a number of the following for discussion and votes later on Wednesday.
Andrea Leadsom, the leader of the Commons, has said the government hopes to be able to hold a third vote on Theresa May’s Brexit deal later this week.
