STERLING: B. The Yvette Cooper/extend article 50 amendment
One of the most closely scrutinised amendments, and backed by more than 70 MPs,
this would guarantee parliamentary time for a private members' bill drafted by
Cooper that would extend article 50 to the end of 2019 if Theresa May failed to
secure a deal by late February. While it seems likely to win official Labour
backing, and from some Tories, it could be scuppered by doubts among Labour MPs
in leave-voting areas. The government will whip MPs against backing it.
