Expert predicts THIS is what May will do to avoid Brexiteers VOTE DOWN EU Brexit deal
Speaking to Bloomberg, John Springford claimed Theresa May's best chance to avoid MPs voting down her final Brexit deal in Parliament would be to present it as soon as she comes back from Brussels with an agreement.
Mr Springford argued leaving as little time as possible between the two crucial events would give Brexiteers in the House of Commons less chance to scrutinise her job.
The Deputy Director of Centre for European Reform said: “Time is going to force her hand. She will have to put something before Parliament and the deadline is thought to be January the 20th.
“The big problem that she faces is she can try to soften everything and bring everyone together with some fudge.
"But the longer the period of time between striking a deal and having the parliamentary vote, the more likely people are going to scrutinise this deal and it might go all wrong.
“So I think she’s probably going to have the parliamentary vote and the deal being struck very close together.”
