"It is a record defeat."
The government faces a vote of no confidence instigated by a motion from the Labour Party after the Prime Minister's huge parliamentary defeat.
But it is expected to survive this with backing from Tory Brexiteers and the Democratic Unionist Party.
This will be debated in the House of Commons from about 1pm today with the vote on the motion due to take place at 7pm.
Meanwhile, European leaders have given no indication they are willing to make any concessions on the Brexit deal.
