The Prime Minister gave a statement following the vote in the House of Commons on the EU Withdrawal Bill.
Prime Minister Theresa May said:
Earlier this morning Parliament took a historic decision to back the will of the British people and vote for a bill which gives certainty and clarity ahead of our withdrawal from the European Union.
