MAY REFUSES TO ALLOW PARLIAMENT A VOTE ON NEW DEAL

Mrs May appeared in front of the Liaison Committee yesterday and in spite of a lot of pressure, refused to say if she would allow parliament to vote on the terms of the withdrawal deal (HERE). The Independent says she risks parliamentary fury.

I am sure this cannot hold. Parliament will have to ratify any deal, especially if it involves any changes to UK citizens rights and obligations. It is impossible to see that she would be able to force this through without a vote especially when a majority in the commons are remainers anyway.
