British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has rejected a request to extend the Brexit, hours after a law demanding a delay of Britain's departure from the European Union until 2020 if he fails to reach a divorce agreement with the EU.
For the second time in a week, lawmakers rejected Johnson's request to try to break the deadlock through early general elections. With uncertainty about leaving the European Union, parliament was suspended until October 14 amid tense scenes in the House of Commons, attacking the Conservatives, saying "Shame on you."
Johnson appeared to be out of control of Britain's withdrawal from the European Union with approval of a law obliging him to delay Brexit unless he could reach a new deal at an EU summit next month.
EU leaders repeatedly that they had not received any specific proposals ahead the EU summit on October 17 and 18, which Johnson hopes to secure an agreement during it. Johnson told parliament after the result of the vote on the request for early elections that this government will pressure with the negotiation of an agreement, while preparing to leave without agreement.
Johnson reiterated his position that he would go to the crucial summit in October and that he would seek an agreement and that his government would not postpone the Brexit any further.
