329 to 300 MPs voted to pass Hilary Benn’s EU (Withdrawal) (No.6)] Bill in order to delay BREXIT until January 2020 without Parliament’s approval or a deal.
In a 329 to 300 vote MPs passed Hilary Benn’s Brexit [EU (Withdrawal) (No.6)] Bill.
The Bill will pass on to the Committee Stage. If it becomes law it will delay the UK’s withdrawal from the EU until January 2020, unless a deal is secured.
Some Tory MPs reacted quite poorly:
