The House of Commons speaker has blocked a third meaningful vote on Theresa May's Brexit deal - until the wording's changed.

John Bercow says it's down to a 400 year old parliamentary rule which means the same issue can't be voted on within a short space of time.

UK MPs will now ask European leaders to allow them to delay Brexit at an EU council meeting on Thursday.
