That could include Labour’s own plan, a customs union, common market membership or a second referendum, the party says.Plan for a second referendum: The breakaway Independent Group, made up of former Labour and Conservative MPs who quit over Brexit, are calling for the government to make the “necessary preparations” for a second Brexit referendum. The plan comes after one million people, according to organizers, marched in London demanding another vote.There are three other amendments tabled by backbenchers or smaller parties. They include a call for the government to ask the Commons whether it approves a no-deal or extending Article 50 again, a pro-Brexit amendment asking the government to reaffirm its commitment to leave the EU, and a plan for a two-year extension to hold a second referendum.
