British MPs will vote on Thursday on a government plan to hold a third ballot on May's deal and request a delayed departure, whatever the result. Despite voting against the withdrawal agreement that May herself approved at a summit on November 25, British lawmakers say they don't want a "no deal" Brexit. If they ask for a Brexit delay then the other 27 EU members, if they unanimously agree, could accord an extension to Article 50. The British government on Wednesday proposed holding another vote on the Brexit deal before a European summit in Brussels on March 21-22. "London's chaos affects the whole European decision-making process," complained Manfred Weber, head of the conservative bloc in the European Parliament, on Wednesday.
