Pro-European Union MPs who claim they want more details about Brexit are seeking to “obfuscate, delay and dilute” the result of the referendum, Michael Gove has said.

As many as 100 MPs – mainly from the Labour Party and the Scottish National Party – will on Wednesday vote against a law to trigger the start of Britain’s exit from the EU.

The comments came as David Davis, the Exiting the EU secretary, said MPs had to “honour our side of the agreement” after the referendum and trigger Article 50.

MPs had to “trust the people” who backed the Government to taken Britain out of the EU and vote decisively for the start of Brexit.
