British parliamentarians have narrowly approved a bill seeking to delay Brexit, as they attempt to avoid a no-deal exit from the European Union
In a third reading, the House of Commons voted by 313 votes to 312 late on Wednesday April 24,2019 in favour of forcing Prime Minister Theresa May to seek an extension of the current Brexit date of April 12.
The bill, which would require May to bring a motion to delay the date of Brexit now needs to be approved by the upper house, the House of Lords. The European Union would also need to agree to a delay.
