Votes will be held this week to try to find consensus among MPs on what type of deal with the EU they want.

But with the cabinet bitterly divided on Brexit and senior ministers coming under increasing pressure to tell Mrs May to resign, her attempts to salvage her deal face enormous difficulties.

"This amendment instead upends the balance between our democratic institutions and sets a dangerous, unpredictable precedent for the future. Brexiteer Tory MPs are now coming under pressure to back the PM's deal as they face the prospect of a"soft Brexit" or a lengthy delay as a result of the"indicative votes".

"I think we are going to end up with a general election before the end of this year, probably in the summer. "If, ultimately, the government refuses to listen to what parliament has voted for then we will look to bring forward a Bill, pass an Act of Parliament that will require the government to reflect parliament's wishes in its new negotiating mandate."

"So I cannot commit the government to delivering the outcome of any votes held by this House. But I do commit to engaging constructively with this process."Once again, Commons Speaker John Bercow will have enormous influence on how the votes are conducted by selecting which options MPs will vote on.
