Brexit bill 'in limbo' as MPs reject timetable -

MPs have rejected plans to examine the PM's Brexit bill in three days, leaving the legislation "in limbo".

Axar.az reports citing BBC.

The Commons supported the Withdrawal Agreement Bill earlier, but voted against the short timetable.

Earlier, the PM warned he would seek an election if MPs dismissed the plan and the EU granted an extension to 31 October Brexit deadline.

After the vote, he told the Commons he would "pause" the legislation until he had spoken to EU leaders.

A spokesman from the European Commission said: "[The Commission] takes note of tonight's result and expects the UK government to inform us about the next steps."
