Brexit delay law approved by UK’s House of Commons

Theresa May said on Tuesday she would seek another short extension to Brexit beyond April 12, in order to try and work with Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to get her thrice-rejected Brexit deal approved by parliament.

“Perhaps crucially it would demonstrate to the EU parliamentary support for what the prime minister is asking for,” Theresa May told parliament during the debate on the legislation. (Reuters/File)

The lower house of the British parliament on Wednesday approved legislation which would force Prime Minister Theresa May to seek a Brexit delay to prevent a potentially disorderly departure on April 12 without a deal.
