Jeremy Corbyn puts forward no confidence motion in Theresa May over Brexit deal vote
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has called for a no confidence vote in Theresa May, saying the UK is facing a constitutional crisis and the prime minister is the architect.
The move comes after May revealed that MPs will not have a chance to vote on her Brexit deal until at least January 21. In response, Corbyn said that putting the vote off until next month is unacceptable.
The vote no confidence would be in prime minister rather than her government, which means it would not be binding.
In addition to Corbyn, 29 other MPs, 15 peers, and five MEPs have signed a letter urging Labour leaders to call for the no confidence vote.
Corbyn said that any responsible prime minister would have put the Brexit deal before parliament this week.
