The British Parliament rejected a Brexit without agreement with the European Union

The British Parliament excluded this Wednesday, by 312 votes for and 308 against, leaves the European Union (EU) without agreement with Brussels at "any time and under any circumstances".

The House of Commons supported a non-binding amendment excluding the possibility of abandoning the bloc of the European Union without agreement, not only on March 29, but at any time. This amendment, introduced by conservative Caroline Spelman, endorses the text of the government's motion to exclude a non-negotiated exit within 16 days.

British Prime Minister Theresa May proposed after the vote to make a third parliamentary vote before March 20 on the Brexit agreement negotiated with the European Union and the deputies have already rejected twice. In a motion to be voted on by the House of Commons on Thursday, the British government says that if the parliament does not approve the agreement upon his arrival, he will ask the EU to extend the exit date, originally scheduled for 29 March.

The result of the votes of yesterday and today leaves as possible alternative an extension to "brexit" that, as promised by the Prime Minister, Theresa May, the deputies will vote this Thursday.

The UK's exit from the European Union, scheduled in 16 days, could be delayed if the parliament does not approve an agreement with Brussels, warned Wednesday Prime Minister Theresa May.

"The chamber must understand and accept that if it does not approve an agreement in the coming days and does not want to approve a Brexit without an agreement on March 29, this suggests that a much longer extension will be needed "than planned.said May in front of the deputies.

It seems certain that parliamentarians would be in favor of extending the date of departure from the European Union, otherwise the country would find itself in a dead end with all the options removed.

If parliamentarians support the extension of the force of Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, under which the country must leave the community club in two weeks, the British government should ask the European Union he approves this extension. Each of the twenty-seven countries of the Union must, unanimously, support this extension for it to take place.
