British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was defeated in a vote on his Brexit timetable, meaning his government could push for a general election.
Lawmakers voted 308 to 322 to turn down his proposed rapid timetable for Brexit bill.
As a result, Johnson has to pause the Withdrawal Agreement Bill.
"I must express my disappointment that the House has again voted for delay rather than a timetable that would have guaranteed the UK would have been in a position to leave the EU (European Union) on Oct. 31 with a deal." - Boris Johnson, British Prime Minister
