May suffers blow to Brexit plans

British Prime Minister Theresa May has suffered a damaging blow to her plans for leaving the European Union - at the hands of UK lawmakers.

Parliament voted on Wednesday (December 13) to change her blueprint for Brexit so that it gets more say in any final deal.

Brexit's deep divisions in British politics showing in a tight vote.

Politicians have been debating the detail of an EU withdrawal bill for seven days, and voting on potential amendments.

Wednesday's amendment was put forward by a member of May's own party- former attorney general Dominic Grieve.
