Brexit: Theresa May could pull vote AGAIN as her 'new deal' goes down in flames

Theresa May could PULL a showdown vote on her Brexit deal after a new offer to MPs went down in flames, a key ally admitted today.

Michael Gove suggested the Withdrawal Agreement Bill could be dropped altogether - just days after she said it would go to a vote.

MPs were due to hold their "second reading", the first proper hurdle for any Bill, on the WAB in the week of June 3.

But Mrs May's attempt to woo Labour, was rejected last night and alienated even more Tories on her own side.

Some MPs are even

Shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer today urged Mrs May to abandon attempts to get her new deal through the Commons.

And crucially, Environment Secretary Michael Gove refused to confirm the vote in the week of June 3 would go ahead.

"We will reflect over the course of the next few days on how people look at the proposition that has been put forward," he told the BBC.

"But there has to be a vote on a Withdrawal Agreement implementation bill."

If the vote is dropped, it would be the second time a Brexit vote has been killed off by Mrs May after the initial vote by MPs was delayed for more than a month in December.

Mr Gove urged MPs to “step back” from the “storm” and take some time to “consider what the options are”.

But Labour's Sir Keir Starmer said: "The Prime Minister needs to, today, accept that what she announced yesterday isn't going to work and pull the vote.

"She has still got time to say 'I do know what the central concerns of the Labour Party are and I'm prepared to put a concrete policy proposition on the face of the Bill on the issues of a close economic relationship and on the issue of a public vote'.

"She could do that, that would be a far better way forward than just allowing this vote to happen in a week or two's time and to lose it. So, I think she should pull it today and reconsider."

Tory Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg also called on her to rethink, "look at the figures, look at the lack of support for her deal."

He told the BBC: "In truth the Prime Minister does not command a majority in the House of Commons."
