British Parliament rejects Brexit deal for second time

British Parliament rejects Brexit deal for second time

British Parliament will vote on a new motion today to decide if the UK should leave the EU within the March 29 deadline without any deal in place.

 The British Prime Minister Theresa May made the statement last night soon after she suffered yet another massive Parliament defeat over Brexit.

MPs rejected May's withdrawal agreement by 149 votes, leaving the deadline for the deal hanging in the balance. Legislators in the House of Commons voted against the deal by 391 to 242.


EU ambassadors will meet in Brussels today to assess the vote, the bloc's contingency plans and to discuss whether to grant a delay to Brexit if London asks for one.
