The British Parliament refused to hold a second referendum on "Brexit"

In the latest round of voting, British MPs decided Thursday whether the UK was asking the European Union (EU) extension for "Brexit", the departure of the country from the community bloc that is to take place on March 29th.

The vote in the House of Commons, scheduled from 7 pm (4 pm in Argentina), takes place after the rejection of the deputies last night, and for only four votes, leave the EU without agreement.

British Prime Minister Theresa May has tabled a motion calling for a three months late divorced with the EU (until June 30), as long as the UK succeeds approve an exit agreement before March 20, one day before a European summit.

The Prime Minister hopes to make a third attempt to submit the agreement negotiated with Brussels to the vote of the deputies, even though this treaty has already been rejected twice by the communes, in January and Tuesday.

In an obvious attempt to dissuade anti-European deputies from leaving the bloc, but reluctant to do so under current conditions, May warns them that if they refuse the deal for the third time, the extension would be much longer, which would force the United Kingdom to to participate in the European elections from May.

The President of the European Council, Donald Tusk, had already warned Thursday that the United Kingdom should "rethinking your Brexit strategy" and create a "consensus around this" if you want the EU to give it a "long" extension.

May had already warned MPs earlier this week that "voting against a Brexit without agreement and in favor of an extension it does not solve the problems We are facing. "The EU will want to know what use we want to give to this enlargement," he said.

Despite the new guarantees provided by the EU on the controversial Irish clause of the agreement – aimed at avoiding a hard border between the two Irish countries – more Eurosceptic Conservative MPs and pro-British members of the Unionist Democratic Party Northern Ireland (DUP) twice rejected the deal that May has negotiated with Brussels.

According to media reports, DUP members hope to have talks with the government today to find a way out that will allow its ten MPs to back the deal at a third vote.

Nevertheless, a Brexit without agreement it's always the "default" optionIn other words, if an alternative has not been approved if the fateful date has not been approved, the UK may unwittingly be forced to leave the EU abruptly.

According to the Bank of England, an exit without agreement, the scenario most feared by the institution, could leave the country in a difficult situation. serious economic crisis, with an increase in unemployment and inflation, the collapse of the pound sterling and the price of housing and a reduction of nearly 10% of GDP.
