MPs cheered when Theresa May asked if Parliament wanted a second referendum, after the prime minister was defeated on her Brexit deal. 

“This house will have to answer that question," Ms May told the Commons. " Does it wish to revoke Article 50?  Does it want to hold a second referendum, or does it want to leave with a deal but not this deal? 

"These are unenviable choices, but thanks to the decision the house has made this evening they must now be faced.” 

As she mentioned a Final Say vote, several MPs shouted "yes”, followed immediately by others shouting “no”. 

Shortly afterwards, another MP also shouted: “What about a general election?”
