Possible options include a "soft Brexit'' that maintains close economic ties with the EU or scrapping Britain's departure altogether. But it also conceded that the new votes might be a way to break the months-long Brexit gridlock.

May is hanging on, hoping she can persuade Brexit-backing lawmakers that rejecting her deal means Britain may never leave the EU.
