What does Speaker John Bercow's ruling mean for Brexit?
Explaining his decision, he cited"strong and longstanding" parliamentary precedents dating back to 1604.
He was asked to look into the matter by a Labour MP, although he had been expected to make an intervention in the Brexit process at some stage, as it has strained Parliament's normal procedures to breaking point. The immediate consequence is that it has pretty much ended any chance of there being another vote on the PM's deal this week.
