UK parliament refuses to leave the EU without an agreement

[14/March/2019]

ANAA, March 14 (Saba) - Britain's parliament on Wednesday refused to leave the EU without an agreement in any way, in a non-binding vote that would increase pressure on Prime Minister Theresa May to rule out that option.

The House of Commons voted to reject with a 321-vote majority.

Another 278 voted in favor of an amendment put forward by a group of deputies demanding the government to exclude exit without an agreement on March 29, the deadline set for London to exit.

The council also rejected a proposal to postpone the country's exit from the EU to May 22.

Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn said the prime minister's " the Brexit of minister Teresa May proved to be a failure" and stressed the need for a general election.
