Theresa May's Brexit deal will be voted on by MPs on December 11

LONDON - Theresa May has just two weeks to sell her Brexit deal to parliament after Conservative MPs were told that the so-called "meaningful vote" on the agreement will be held in the House of Commons on December 11.

In a letter leaked to Business Insider the government's chief whip Julian Smith wrote to Conservative MPs on Monday setting out the timetable for the vote as it passes through parliament.

The government plans to hold 5 days of debate on the deal before putting it to a final vote on Tuesday December 11.
