The amendment should win government backing as Mrs May has always opposed another public vote on EU membership.
It would also put Labour into a difficult spot as leader Jeremy Corbyn now backs a second referendum, but it is unpopular in Leave-voting Labour constituencies.
The only difficulty is whether Commons Speaker John Bercow selects the amendment for a vote.There have been concerns that he has only selected amendments which help Remainers.
A Brexiteer MP said: “If it is voted we expect to win and will remove the chance of another referendum.They [Remainers] may get to delay Brexit but will lose the chance of another vote.”
In a fresh blow to Remainer MPs, their leader on THETORY benches Dominic Grieve faces a no-confidence vote at his Beaconsfield association meeting on March 29 – Brexit Day.
John Strafford, Campaign for Conservative Democracy chairman, who organised it, said: “I have been absolutely inundated with support for this vote from party members in the constituency and outside.”
