LONDON - British lawmakers are voting on Thursday on a government proposal setting out what Prime Minister Theresa May says are the options on how long to delay Brexit.
Tellers announce the results of the vote on extending Brexit negotiating period in Parliament in London, Britain, March 14, 2019, in this screen grab taken from video. Reuters TV via REUTERS1) Notes parliament has rejected May’s deal and a no-deal scenario, and agrees the government will seek an extension to the Brexit negotiating period, which currently ends on March 29.
2) Parliament agrees that if lawmakers approve a divorce deal by March 20, the government will seek to agree “a one-off extension” until June 30 to pass legislation needed to smooth Britain’s departure from the EU. 3) Parliament notes if it has not approved a divorce deal by March 20, then it is “highly likely that the European Council at its meeting the following day would require a clear purpose for any extension, not least to determine its length, and that any extension beyond 30 June 2019 would require the United Kingdom to hold European Parliament elections in May 2019”.
This would have aimed at trying to find a majority for an alternative Brexit path that would break the parliamentary deadlock.Jeremy Corbyn’s opposition Labour Party submitted an amendment calling for May to use a Brexit delay to give parliament time “to find a majority for a different approach”.
