Theresa May has suffered a fresh defeat over her Brexit plans.
The British prime minister kicked off a fresh round of debates over her proposed deal on Wednesday.
May didn’t get off to the best start.
On day one of the five-day debate, lawmakers voted to demand that the government come up with an alternative plan within three days — if May’s deal is rejected.
That’s instead of a planned 21-day limit.
Wednesday’s vote doesn’t have legal force, but it’s another sign of how the parliamentary odds are stacked against May.
If parliament rejects May’s deal next week, uncertainty over the future of Brexit will deepen
