Another Brexit crunch week: what could happen?

 

With MPs due to vote on May’s deal a third time, here are four scenarios that might play out

 

  1. May’s deal scrapes over the line – short, ‘technical’ Brexit delay

The government’s deal was defeated at last week’s second meaningful vote by a majority of 149. That means she must convince 75 MPs to change sides if she is to win this week.

 

  1. Deal falls – long extension

May has said that, as last week’s government motion on delaying Brexit made clear, if parliament has not backed a deal, she expects EU leaders to insist on a long extension – perhaps of more than a year – to allow the UK to agree on a way forward.

 

  1. Parliament demands a referendum

Labour has suggested it would back an amendment to the meaningful vote motion tabled by a pair of MPs, Peter Kyle and Phil Wilson, that would see the Commons decline to support May’s deal until it is ratified by the public in a referendum.

 

  1. No-confidence vote

Jeremy Corbyn hinted on Sunday that Labour may be prepared to table a no-confidence vote in Theresa May’s government for a second time this week, if her deal is rejected.
