Remainers to demand Theresa May hands Parliament power to delay Brexit as their price to support her

TORY Remainer ministers are to demand Theresa May gives MPs a chance to enforce a delay to Brexit in two weeks time as their price to support her.

The PM will try to convince the Commons on Tuesday to give her another fortnight’s grace for talks with Brussels for changes to the Irish backstop.

She faces a fresh vote on Thursday for Parliament to authorise her plan to offer MPs another say on February 27 if there is still no deal.

But with just 45 days to go until Brexit day, angry ministers – who met in secret on Monday – will tell No10 that is not enough.

Instead, in a new revolt, they want the PM to promise to hand over Parliamentary time to backbenchers at the end of the month if there is no progress then to allow a bill to pass that will enforce an extension to the Article 50 talks.

One minister told The Sun: “Just kicking this down the road another two weeks to give us another vote on February 27 is not going to be enough.

“It’s too late for that.”
