Brexit: MPs reject any no-deal option in two votes

MPs have rejected a no-deal Brexit by 312 to 308 in a non-binding vote, despite the government having whipped Conservatives not to back it.

Dame Caroline Spelman, who put her name the Spelman/Dromey amendment, had unsuccessfully tried to withdraw it a few hours ahead of the vote.

MPs voted on the amended motion, and the numbers changed with 321 MPs then supported no deal, with 278 against, and so the majority rose to 43.
