Speaker John Bercow caught in Brexit storm | ITV News

The Commons Speaker faced a backlash from Conservative MPs after selecting an amendment that forces Theresa May to return with a revised EU exit plan within three sitting days if her original Brexit deal is defeated.

John Bercow was at the centre of furious Commons scenes before MPs voted in favour of the amendment with a majority of 11, with several Tory Brexiteers furious he had allowed the vote on the issue.

The amendment is aimed at speeding up the process for the government to bring forward a Brexit plan B if the prime minister's deal is rejected by the Commons on Tuesday.
