MPs failed once again to make any headway over Brexit<\/a> as every single proposal was slapped down by the Commons<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Britain is now hurtling towards No Deal \u2013 with just 10 days to go before the UK is scheduled to leave the EU.<\/p>\n

Hardline backbenchers in the Tories are refusing the compromise and May has lost control of the Conservatives.<\/p>\n

Her leadership continues to hang by a thread as she prepares to make one final bid to push through her hugely unpopular Withdrawal Agreement.<\/p>\n

Mays future in her job is now tied to her Brexit deal passing \u2013 and the candidates to be next PM are circling, with bookies handing the edge of Gove and Johnson.<\/p>\n

And there is also the prospect of a snap General Election being called in a final bid for unity in the Commons.<\/p>\n
