A Labour motion to force the government into publishing private Cabinet papers on post-Brexit customs proposals has been defeated.
The party’s motion would have required the government to release to parliament all papers prepared for the Brexit sub-committee on the two customs models, including any economic analysis.
It was defeated by 301 votes to 269, a majority of 32.
The vote was the latest in a string of Labour motions using an arcane parliamentary procedure to make the vote binding on the government by issuing a “humble address” to the Queen asking her to require ministers to comply.
The debate came after Theresa May was under over Brexit during Prime Minister’s Questions, as Jeremy Corbyn sought to capitalise on deep divisions among senior Tories over future customs arrangements.
The Labour leader drew laughs when he mocked Ms May's call for "as little friction as possible", adding: "Was she talking about EU trade or the next cabinet meeting?"
Mr Corbyn called on the prime minister to "step aside and let Labour" carry out the negotiations as he tore into her record on zero hours contracts and workers rights.
