Prime Minister Theresa May has pulled a vote on her Brexit deal, throwing the UK’s plan to leave the European Union into chaos after she admitted she did not have the votes to get it through parliament. MPs could now have to wait until January 21, 2019 to vote on the government’s beleaguered deal, May announced in the House of Commons on Monday afternoon. “If we went ahead and held the vote tomorrow the deal would be rejected by a significant margin,” May told parliament, adding that she was confident it was still the right deal for the UK. The prime minister also announced plans to meet European leaders, as well as the leaders of the European Council and Commission ahead of Thursday’s summit in Brussels. The prime minister said she would seek changes to the proposal to win over unhappy Conservative MPs.
