U.K. Parliament Approves Brexit Bill But Rejects Johnson's Timetable

The House of Commons advanced the European Union Withdrawal Agreement bill, but rejected the Prime Minister's proposed timetable for its approval. The bill aims to incorporate Johnson's EU withdrawal agreement into domestic law, but faced opposition due to the rushed timeline. Lawmakers expressed concerns over insufficient time to review the bill, which typically takes weeks to pass. Johnson warned of a potential general election if Brexit is delayed. Following the vote, he paused the legislation pending the EU's decision on an extension. EU Council President Donald Tusk recommended accepting the UK's extension request.
