Opponents of a no-deal Brexit have defeated British Prime Minister Boris Johnson in parliament.
The UK Prime Minister lost a vote in the House of Commons by a margin of 27 votes on Tuesday night, local time... after an emergency debate on his no-deal Brexit plan.
Tuesday’s victory will allow lawmakers to put forward a bill looking to force Johnson to ask the EU to delay Brexit until January 31st.
In response, the Prime Minister says he will table a vote for an early general election on Wednesday.
