Johnson’s Brexit deal meaningful vote rejected by Speaker

Political Editor

After more than three years of parliamentary wrangling, this week could see the Brexit Withdrawal Bill go through the Commons in just three days – if the government gets its way.

The bill will be published later tonight and the debate will start tomorrow. Ministers want it all wrapped up by Thursday.

The Opposition says it’s far too important to be rushed through in  that way.
