New photo Theresa May must hold a vote on Brexit deal this week, critics blast from all sides

THERESA May is under mounting pressure to let MPs vote on her Brexit deal before Christmas.

The Prime Minister has refused to bring her deal back to the Commons after pulling it last week.

Theresa May is under pressure to hold a Commons vote on Brexit

But critics want her to hold a vote in the coming days – so that it will get defeated and Parliament can plan the way forward.

Tory rebels, Labour and the SNP all called for the vote to take place this week instead of being delayed until January 14 as she currently plans.

Jeremy Corbyn’s ally Andrew Gwynne told the BBC: “The main thing that we want next week is to have that meaningful vote on the withdrawal agreement.

“We want it before Christmas – Parliament has to to decide whether or not it supports the Prime Minister’s deal and fundamentally until we secure that meaningful vote from the Parliament we can’t move to the next stage.”

Nicola Sturgeon blasted the PM for putting off the crunch vote

Jo Johnson, who quit as a minister to back a second referendum on Brexit, told Sky News: “The Government needs to bring its deal back to Parliament as soon as possible.

“We need to get on with it and move this to a conclusion.

“It’s clear the Prime Minister is now running the clock, her strategy is to kick the can down the road – in my view that’s completely unacceptable.”

His fellow Tory Remainer Justine Greening added: “Parliament stands ready to vote on her proposals. In fact, most MPs would be happy for Christmas recess to be delayed to do so.”

Nicola Sturgeon said: “We need clarity, we need things to move on.”

Liam Fox insisted the vote would have to wait until next month

She also called on Mr Corbyn to table a motion of no confidence in the Government in a bid to bring down Mrs May.

The PM’s strategy is to wait until next month to bring the Brexit deal back to the Commons – hoping that the shorter timetable will encourage MPs to break the deadlock.

Trade Secretary Liam Fox said today: “It is not going to happen this week. It is not going to be quick. It will happen sometime in the New Year.”

He suggested the PM could win support from Labour if Mr Corbyn allowed his MPs a free vote on the deal.

Dr Fox also joined Education Secretary Damian Hinds in saying that if the deal falls, MPs should then get a say on all the possible outcomes.

Ministers believe that could show there is no majority for No Deal or a second referendum – encouraging both Brexiteers and Remainers to fall in line behind Mrs May.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
