    Labour divided on support for PM's May EU single market exit

    The ‘reasoned amendment’ tabled by Heidi Alexander could throw out the bill at its second reading in Commons, the first time MPs get a chance to debate it.

    A group of backbench Labour MPs have put forward a Commons motion to stop the Article 50 bill. Proposed by former shadow Health Secretary, Heidi Alexander and supported by 18 MPs, it argues they can't support the Prime Minister’s plan to take Britain out of the EU's Single Market.
