Theresa May has promised MPs a meaningful vote on her Brexit deal by the twelfth of March, after remain-supporting ministers threatened to revolt.

If the vote fails, two votes will follow. The first will be for a no-deal exit from the EU, but only with explicit consent in the house. The second vote will occur if the first fails, wherein MPs will vote by the 14th of March to request an extension from the EU to delay withdrawal beyond the 29th of March.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has called the delay “grotesquely reckless”.
