British Prime Minister Boris Johnson says he will push ahead and try to leave European Union by Oct. 31.
In a major blow to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, U.K. lawmakers voted Saturday to postpone a decision on whether to back his Brexit deal with the European Union, throwing a wrench into government plans to leave the bloc at the end of this month.
The government still hopes it can pass the needed legislation by the end of the month so the U.K. can leave on time. In Parliament before the vote, Johnson implored legislators to ratify the deal he struck this week with the bloc's 27 other leaders. He said members of the House of Commons should "come together as democrats to end this debilitating feud" over Brexit, which has bitterly divided the country since British voters narrowly chose in a 2016 vote to leave the EU.
Johnson called any delay to Britain's Brexit departure date "pointless, expensive and deeply corrosive of public trust.""There is very little appetite among our friends in the EU for this business to be protracted by one extra day," Johnson said. "They have had three and a half years of this debate.""I want us to finish this off and speak about the future," Macron said. "The Oct. 31 date must be respected.
