New photo MPs plan to mount a Donald Trump-style shutdown of the Government to stop a no deal Brexit

Theresa May (pictured going to church in Maidenhead this morning) is braced for a fresh Brexit battle as MPs return to Parliament this week

Britain could suffer a Donald Trump-style Government shut-down under a Remainer plot to block a no deal Brexit.

Remainer Tories are joining with Labour and Lib Dem MPs to back changes to a key piece of legislation to bind the Government's hands if Theresa May refuses to take no deal off the table. 

Labour ex minister Yvette Cooper and Tory MPs Oliver Letwin and Nicky Morgan  have tabled an amendment to the Finance Bill.

It would rob the Treasury of its no-deal powers if ministers pressed ahead with a plan to crash out of Brussels without the support of MPs. 

A second amendment, tabled by Lib Dem leader Sir Vince Cable and the Greens, would stop the Treasury from raising income or corporation tax unless parliament approved a Brexit deal.

The twin changes to the Finance Bill, which is being  voted on by MPs on Tuesday, could throw the Government into chaos if they are passed.

And it risks plunging Britain into a partial government shutdown similar to what is happening in America, where Donald Trump has refused to fully fund the Government until he gets money for his border wall with Mexico. 

The Finance Bill gives the Treasury the right to spend money on no-deal Brexit  planning.

Ms Cooper, head of the influential Home Affairs Select Committee, told The Sunday Times: 'Our amendment would block some of the Treasury's no-deal powers unless parliament has explicitly voted for no deal or unless the government has requested an extension of article 50.

'We'll be looking to table similar safeguards to all government legislation.' 

The plan is also backed by select committee leaders and Labour MPs Hilary Benn, Rachel Reeves and Harriet Harman, Tory MP and committee chairwoman Sarah Wollaston, and Frank Field. 

A second amendment, tabled by Sir Vince would stop the Treasury from raising any income tax or corporation tax unless parliament approved a Brexit deal. 

Sir Vince said: 'The time has now come for MPs to assert their authority by making it impossible for the government to collect crucial taxes if they do pursue a damaging no deal.' 

The showdown looms as MPs return to Parliament from their Christmas break tomorrow.

Theresa May survived a bid to oust her as Tory leader and PM at the end of last year, but she still faces a massive wave of opposition to her Brexit deal across Parliament.

Jacob Rees-Mogg today warned that Brexiteer MPs have 'not gone soft over Christmas' and are preparing to vote down her Brexit deal.

The Brexiteer rebel ringleader said that he expected more than 100 Tories to revolt against the Withdrawal Agreement when it comes to the crunch Commons vote this month.

It comes amid reports that Tory activists have effectively gone on strike - refusing to campaign or raise party funds - amid fury at the PM's Brexit deal.  

Mr Rees-Mogg told The Sunday Express: 'This strength of feeling ought to be responded to by the leadership of the party and not stamped upon.' 

And Tory MP and fellow leading Brexiteer Peter Bone echoed the warning. 

The Tory MP, who once called Theresa May the 'queen of Brexit', said MPs will not be returning from the Christmas break ready to back her deal.

He told Sky News' Sophy Ridge On Sunday that the time off will not have changed any minds, and if anything it will have 'hardened attitudes of MPs to what is called a no-deal Brexit'.

Mr Bone said constituents are telling their MPs to 'get on with it', adding: 'There was no question that I remember on the referendum about a deal or not. It was leave or remain, and the way you leave is to come out on March 29.'

The Wellingborough MP famously said he would build a statue of the PM in his hometown for delivering Brexit, but said it 'is probably not going to happen now'.

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.”
