UK lawmakers reject no-deal Brexit

British Members of Parliament have voted to reject leaving the EU without a withdrawal agreement.

British Members of Parliament have voted against the possibility of a no-deal Brexit. The decision is not legally binding and it does not rule out the UK leaving the EU. But it means MPs could now get a vote on delaying Brexit.

Also in the programme: President Trump says all Boeing 737 MAX aircraft are being grounded pending the investigation into the deadly crash of an Ethiopian Airlines jet; and a new study says that death metal music sparks joy rather than violence.
