UK MPs vote for Brexit delay

UK parliament votes to hold off approval for the prime minister's new Brexit deal

The UK parliament votes to hold off approval for the prime minister's new Brexit deal. As a result, Prime Minister Boris Johnson is now required to ask the EU to extend the 31st October deadline - something he is dead set against.

Also on the programme: Further fighting in north east Syria sees Turkish and Syrian Kurdish fighters accuse each other of breaching the US-brokered ceasefire; and violent protests in Chile lead to a state of emergency.
