They could have said "We vote for it, once we see the plan. It is the lack of a plan that bothers us, not article50 itself".
Especially with May's rather unhelpful sounds about human rights, and all that...pointing out the Tories are not to be trusted and should be held accountable with a plan could have worked.

Really? Do you remember what it was like? The build up of pressure over the inaction?
Triggering Article 50 was pure political pragmatism over the country's interest - Politicians needed to look like they were doing something.
But I don't see how Labour could have ever opposed it on a political level. They needed it as much as the Tories.
