Labour has launched a bid to stop no deal Brexit and shape the UK's future relationship with the EU.

Jeremy Corbyn's party has tabled an amendment which calls for Parliament to have a say on all the options.

Two of those should include Labour's own Brexit plans which is a Norway plus style agreement and also the option for a second referendum or public voted.

Keir Starmer boosted the hopes of Labour supporters of a second referendum at the weekend when he confirmed the party was now at the final stage of its Brexit plan as set out in its September conference.

Labour believes its version of Brexit which would include a permanent customs union, relationship with the single market and alignment on rights and standards would command a majority in the House of Commons.

Party sources say the amendment is in line with the party's conference motion agreed in September.

In recent weeks the leadership has insisted that "all options remain on the table".

But there are a growing number of Labour MPs who want a second vote - while more than 70% of the party's membership also back another poll.

Jeremy Corbyn said: "Theresa May has shown today that she has no Plan B after the comprehensive rejection of her botched Brexit deal by MPs last week.

"The prime minister is both refusing to change her red lines or take the threat of a no deal exit off the table. MPs must now act to break the deadlock.

"Our amendment will allow MPs to vote on options to end this Brexit deadlock and prevent the chaos of a No Deal.

"It is time for Labour's alternative plan to take centre stage, while keeping all options on the table, including the option of a public vote."

Wording of Labour's amendment:

and requires ministers to secure sufficient time for the UK Parliament to consider and vote on options to prevent the UK leaving the EU without a ratified Withdrawal Agreement and Political Declaration., and that those options should include:

i) negotiating changes to the draft Withdrawal Agreement and Political Declaration so as to secure a permanent customs union with the EU, a strong relationship with the single market underpinned by shared institutions and obligations, and dynamic alignment on rights and standards, in order to command a majority in the House of Commons

ii) Legislating to hold a public vote on a deal or a proposition that has commanded the support of the majority of the House of Commons
