Could we really be about to see a second Brexit referendum?
WATCH: Labour MP explains exactly how a second Brexit referendum would work 55 Carl Kinsella Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn confirmed on Monday that the Labour Party will support a re-run of 2016's referendum that saw the UK vote to leave the EU. Senior Labour MP Emily Thornberry has explained Labour would introduce an amendment on 27 February that would agree to pass May's deal through Parliament if May would then put that deal before the British people.
Alternatively, if May cannot get a deal through Parliament, the second Brexit referendum would see the option"No deal" pitted against"Remain". Thornberry further confirmed that she, Labour as a whole, and Jeremy Corbyn would be campaigning for a Remain vote. Speaking to the BBC, Thornberry said:"Whether we're facing a no deal, or a disastrous Tory Brexit, either should go before the people and we need to have the people break the logjam.
