I'm not sure that it will bring the Government down but it may lead to a different approach to Brexit from Theresa May.

Anna Soubry, Conservative MP for Broxtowe, said that Labour’s move would terrify some of her colleagues. “If you were a hard Brexiteer you would be very, very nervous because the arguments are shifting. You can see that your hard Brexit is going down the pan.” The former business minister downplayed the odds that she would vote against the government, however.
Another leading Tory Remainer said: “There’s no doubt this gives us leverage. The parliamentary consensus is moving and May’s best hope is to move too.”
