What happens now MPs have voted to delay Brexit until 2020
Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been dealt a major blow to his authority after MPs voted to make a no-deal Brexit illegal.
Twenty-one former Conservative MPs, who were expelled from the party on Tuesday, joined forces with Labour and other opposition parties to vote for a plan which seeks to prevent Johnson from taking Britain out of the EU with no deal on October 31. That is because Boris Johnson plans to suspend Parliament starting next week, a move apparently designed to prevent members of parliament from trying to delay Brexit.The bill will pass to the House of Lords, which still needs to approve the bill. After that, it will receive Royal Assent and pass into the statute books.
Conservative peers have tabled more than 85 amendments in a mass attempt to disrupt the bill's progress, while Labour colleagues have tried to ensure that attempts to filibuster the legislation are blocked by saying the legislation needs to be dealt with. "If Conservative MPs help him to make no deal illegal tomorrow and therefore create another pointless delay, the government's negotiating position will be wrecked," a senior government official said on Monday.Downing Street will first seek an election by bringing forward a motion for an early general election under the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act. Under the terms of the law, two-thirds of MPs — that is, 434 — would need to support the prime minister's plan.
