Highlights from the Meaningful Vote Debate – Day One

Theresa May kicked off proceedings on the Meaningful Vote Debate…

…and she took plenty of interventions

Theresa May suggested Hilary Benn’s amendment would put the UK on course for No Deal

Jeremy Corbyn said the deal would “make us worse off”

He called the Prime Minister’s claim that this plan means we take control of our laws, money and borders as utterly far-fetched

Boris Johnson claimed the deal united Leavers and Remainers – against the agreement

Owen Paterson said Leave meant leaving the Customs Union, Single Market and ECJ

Ben Bradley argued that the agreement wasn’t the best deal
