MPs will get a vote on whether to hold another referendum if they back the EU Withdrawal Agreement Bill, she said.
The bill also contains new guarantees on workers' rights, environmental protections and the Northern Irish border as well a customs "compromise".
Labour said it was a "rehash" of existing plans and Tory Brexiteers took to social media to vent their anger.
Jacob Rees-Mogg said what was on offer was "worse than before", while Zac Goldsmith said the bill was a "convoluted mess" and the prime minister - who has offered to quit once a Brexit agreement is approved by Parliament - should leave now.
Once more chance to slam it down.
ok
it's still a no babe xo
Fuck. Off. Please.
After this there will be a super-final chance. Then a mega-final. Then a hyper-ultra-final chance. Maybe sometime around 2032 they have reached a consensus.
And that consensus will be that they need another crack at it.
The year is 5547 and Theresa May's dehydrated, sentient skin assures the public that her new Brexit deal is 'the one'.

"I NEED MOISTURE"
Imagine using deepfakes on that character whose name I forgot to replace her "face" with May's
The Brexiters in Parliament are so incompetent. May's deal is the best you can get if you're not willing to concede some alignment with the EU. If you reject her deal and end up on WTO terms, when you return to the EU to negotiate, they'll just give you the same deal. You either go for May's deal, or you allow several weeks of disruption at the borders and then have her deal.
Close but no cigar, attaching the referendum to the deal itself is probably the only way it could pass
I think attaching a second referendum to the deal is probably going to turn a lot of Brexiteers off it even more though, which is probably why Rees-Mogg has already spoken out against this one by calling it the worst one yet. I imagine including workers rights in there probably pissed Mogg off too.
Isn't the deal with the EU that once we pass the Withdrawal Agreement, we leave the EU at the end of that month? If so, we wouldn't be able to have the option to remain so it's pointless.
Resorting to threats now? What a worm.

Turns out May was originally planning to put a second referendum into the bill itself but was stopped by her cabinet
May’s final effort to win backing falls flat as MPs reject ‘new'..
Other than this deal being quite a fucking mess, I don't really see why remainers would object to this. May's deal may be shit but at least it's better than a no deal brexit scenario, and if the deal passes it's an actual chance to hold a second referendum.
Considering how fucked the conservatives look like in the EU election by hard brexiteers, I think Theresa May's had enough of their shit and is trying to at least get some brownie points with the remain side just so she can hold on to power.
She's said she will resign if the deal passes and that she'll resign if it doesn't, so she has no intention of holding onto power at this point. She's not good at her job but she doesn't lie like Trump, so I am confident she will resign very soon, whether or not we get a conclusion to Brexit.
At this point I'm wondering why the EU hasn't just kicked them the fuck out with no deal yet.
Because, believe it or not, the EU also benefit from the UK being in the EU. No-deal would be awful for the UK but also pretty bad for the EU. The EU are not being charitable.
