THERESA May is meeting MPs in an attempt to reach a decision on Brexit after narrowly surviving Labour's attempt to oust her as Prime Minister.
MPs rejected Jeremy Corbyn’s motion of no confidence in the Government by a margin of 325 to 306 after six hours of debate.
The PM said she wanted to approach discussions in a "constructive spirit".
She is to publish her new plan on EU withdrawal to Parliament on Monday, 21 January, with a full debate and the key vote on it scheduled for Tuesday, 29 January.
Speaking outside Downing Street after talks last night with the LibDems, SNP and Plaid Cymru, May called said: "It will not be an easy task, but MPs know they have a duty to act in the national interest, reach a consensus and get this done."
May is holding meetings with both Tory Brexiteers and the DUP – both of whom rejected her withdrawal deal earlier this week – today.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
