Your support makes all the difference.MPs have voted to trigger Article 50 by the end of March next year as Labour attempts to force Theresa May to reveal her plan for Brexit.
Some 461 MPs vote in favour of a proposal to force the Government to stick to its own deadline for triggering the mechanism that starts the process for Britain to leave the European Union.
The move came after Labour proposed a motion that called on the Government into revealing its Brexit plan.
Ms May accepted the motion but added the amendment regarding Article 50, which the Labour leadership decided to support.
But 89 MPs, including 23 Labour MPs, voted against the motion saying it was too fast and would put pressure on Ms May to opt for Hard Brexit – meaning an end to freedom of movement and losing access to the single market.
Green MP Caroline Lucas accused the Labour party of failing into a "Tory trap of binding (it) to supporting the invoking of article 50 by March, which is an unrealistic and increasingly arbitrary date".
Some have reacted with outrage at the rebellion with the Conservative party's official Twitter account tweeting the names of the individual Labour MPs who voted against it, accusing them of not respecting the referendum result and saying the party is "out of touch with ordinary working people".
The vote was part of an Opposition day debate meaning it was not binding but it has been viewed as a symbolic victory for those who believe the Government should be more transparent about their plans for Brexit.
