BREAKING: UK Parliament rejects call for second referendum

UK lawmakers rejected a move to support a second referendum on Brexit by 334 votes to 85. It’s a blow to campaigners for a so-called People’s Vote

The cross-party proposal was the first time the House of Commons has held a formal vote on whether to endorse another referendum.

The vote on the amendment was indicative and would not have been legally binding if it had passed. It also doesn’t rule out the possibility of parliament revisiting the idea down the line.

Lawmakers will now vote on further amendments before voting on the government’s main motion that could delay Brexit.
