UK MPs vote to delay Brexit until end of June

From Morning Report, 8:20 am on 15 March 2019

After months of political wrangling and days of drama in the British parliament - MPs have voted to delay Brexit. They've voted to request the European Union for an extension to Article 50 until June 30 - meaning Britain will not leave the EU on March 29. Earlier MPs voted on a series of complicated amendments in which they rejected a second referendum and narrowly voted against giving themselves more time to find a way forward.
