Theresa May the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom has sounded a note of warning to Members of Parliament not to reject her Brexit deal.

According to her, if they do reject the deal to leave the European Union, they risk either leaving without a deal or not leaving at all.

The embattled British PM sounded the note of warning as Members of Parliament are set to vote on the government’s deal on Tuesday.

Speaking at a factory in the northern city of Stoke-on-Trent on Monday, May said she was looking to “close the debate” on Brexit.

“What is important is that we deliver on the result of the referendum,” the prime minister said, arguing any attempt to stay in the bloc would be a betrayal of the British electorate.

The fresh vote on Brexit comes after an earlier attempt to gain approval in December which was postponed until now because it faced almost certain defeat.
