Can the House of Commons possibly agree on anything when it comes to Brexit?
Can the House of Commons possibly agree on anything when it comes to Brexit?

Theresa May is rapidly running out of time and options on Brexit.

The EU’s latest demands, announced on Thursday, are clear: either she secures MPs’ approval for her exit deal next week, or the UK must come up with an alternative way forward if it is to avoid crashing out of the bloc on 12 April.

The prime minister is likely to try to hold a third vote on her proposed agreement early next week but government sources are privately pessimistic about the prospect of MPs suddenly approving a deal they have already comprehensively rejected twice.
