lasting for days. what has that done this is bbc news, the headlines: the british parliament has rejected a withdrawal agreement from the european union for a third all the support for the opposition? time, in a major setback for the prime minister, theresa may. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers has it increased support, are people in north america and around the globe. mps defeated it by 58 votes, my name is reged ahmad. quite upset about what is happening on the day originally set our top stories: to the electricity supply? it for britain to leave the eu. probably has, but at the same time, the head of the european this is not the first time something council, donald tusk, has called a special meeting of eu parliament says no to theresa may's leaders two days before is not working in venezuela. for the new brexit deadline eu divorce dealfor a third time. of april 12th. they'll consider any request for a longer extension, it's now no deal or another delay but the european commission says to brexit, after the defeat yea rs, is not working in venezuela. for years, tomorrow can be worse is what a no deal brexit is now a "likely scenario". on what should've been departure day for the uk. they are thinking, so the fact that things are not working, that is not any surprise to anyone. it is of hundreds of thousands of people european leaders schedule in algeria have taken an emergency meeting but the eu to the streets of major cities, insists the 27 are prepared demanding the resignation for britain to crash out of president bouteflika. without a deal. course helping one guaido, but it police have used tear gas and water cannon to disperse the crowds. those are the latest headlines. police use water cannons and tear gas as more than a million people makes it more difficult to organise descend on the streets of algiers his supporters at the moment. he is in the biggest protest yet trying once again to try to come up against president bouteflika.

blackouts plunge venezuela ns into even more hardship. the opposition is calling for people with some sort of plan for how to get rid of the madeira government. but honestly he seems a bit lost, doesn't seem to really know what is to come out in protest. the next step and the step after that. this makes it a difficult choice, making it even harderfor him to change things around. choice, making it even harderfor him to change things aroundm sounds like you are saying the opposition is losing momentum a the british government little bit. the aid that the red is considering its next steps on brexit, after prime minister cross is talking about bringing in, theresa may's withdrawal agreement was rejected by mps for a third what effect will that have? it is time, plunging the process into even greater uncertainty. this on the day the uk was orginally good for venezuelans, is it might be scheduled to leave the eu. on this occasion, the vote was simply on the first part distributed in a new way. but of the agreement, the withdrawal arrangements. probably not as good a thing for the the idea was to leave the issue of the future relationship with the eu to another time. opposition, as they are trying to but even that wasn't enough to win over the all the sceptics. the european commission says show at the moment, because they a "no deal" brexit is now a likely scenario. we re show at the moment, because they the bbc‘s political editor were popular because they were the ones who wanted to accept aid, with the maduro government rejecting it.

laura kuenssberg reports. now, there is a compromise, and aid is coming in but that is not really the way the government wanted it all drumming. the way the government wanted it all the way the opposition wanted it. that takes a card out of guaido's this really is such an iconic day, it is march the 29th. what do we want? hand. thank you so much forjoining brexit! when do we want it? now! this really is a great failure, that we are not leaving at 11 us. o'clock this evening. crowds on the march to push so, where does the uk go from here? parliament to get on with it... it's a thoroughly bad idea and it deserves to be defeated today. there are all kinds of possibilties from a no deal brexit, on the day that we to a closer future relationship were due to leave... shame on you! with the eu, a long delay, ..mps were asked to back a deal and a general election. our deputy political editor, they hate or a delay. john pienaar, looks at the options. this may have been theresa may's protests brought frustration last chance, and she came up short. to parliament, the prime minister by 58 votes, mps voted down brought the deal that would divorce us from the eu to the commons the divorce deal she thrashed out with the eu. for judgment — again. plenty of battles still to come before brexit is ever settled, but if mrs may even hoped to regain any control, that hope probably died today. the ayes to the right, 286. how? the noes to the left, 344. tory brexiteer resistance mostly crumbled. they feared losing brexit altogether. big hitters like borisjohnson, dominic raab, evenjacob rees—mogg, who said till today he'd a closer result than last time out oppose the deal so long as the democratic unionists did, but a third defeat of nearly 60 votes for theresa may's

but the hard—core stayed firm. deal — still way off. the dup held out, fearing northern ireland could be treated differently to the rest of the uk i fear we are reaching the limits of the process in this house. for the sake of avoiding a hard eu border with ireland. this house has rejected no deal, it has rejected no brexit, on wednesday, it rejected all the variations of the deal on the table. this government will continue jeremy corbyn‘s labour mps split. to press the case for the orderly brexit that the result five, reconciled to brexit, backed the deal. of the referendum demands. most helped sink it. this deal now has to change. so now, who's in charge? mps and cross—party factions are working on their own plans for brexit. there has to be an alternative found former cabinet minister oliver and if the prime minister can't letwin is one of those accept that, then she must go, organising a series of votes for next week, hoping most mps can not at an indeterminate date in the future, but now. agree on one. the options — a brexit closer to the eu than mrs may's deal, she should now go and we should be maybe under the same customs rules, having a general election. maybe under eu single market rules, so free movement of people open calls for her to quit growing in her party too. could continue, or maybe both. there's only one thing that's been compared the prime minister can do, to the old european common market. get us out on the 12th of april, a new referendum is an option, maybe tied to whatever brexit deal get our country back, and deliver what we promised. is chosen in the end. because if we don't, god help us.

and some mps who oppose leaving do you think that she with no deal and believe parliament should stay in herjob? would never allow it no. prefer revoking brexit, calling it off for it now orfor good. mps could still take control, ordering the government by law i think it was inevitable to adopt the plan mps choose. that what just happened was going to happen because theresa may, once again, singularly failed so mrs may's next move, assuming she's around long enough, doing nothing is not an option. to reach out to people. there'll have to be a brexit plan made law the cabinet's still trying to cling on... we are going to have to think very by a withdrawal agreement bill. hard over the next few hours how mps could try and force their own plans into that bill. to respond but this is a hugely disappointing result, a softer brexit may well which to my mind is not have the most support. in the national interest. could any pm order tory mps and ministers how to vote or try? the prime minister's pitch earlier was this is the last chance to make government discipline has all but collapsed. the next eu summit is set sure we could leave for a week on wednesday. the eu offered to delay brexit till may the 22nd, the eu sometime soon. if the prime minister managed to get the terms of divorce through parliament. it avoids a long extension which would at least delay and could destroy brexit. i have said that i am prepared to leave this job earlier than i intended to secure the right outcome for our country. and when the division bell rings in a few moments‘s time,

everyone of us will have to look into our hearts and decide what is best for our constituents and our country. she's failed, so the deadline this deal, even the half of it is set for april the 12th. we have before us today, that's to allow the uk to avoid is bad for our democracy, the european elections. bad for our economy and bad for this until there's a final agreement, a no—deal brexit remains possible, country, and i urge the house not the outcome many fear to be cajoled on this third time most, maybe by accident. but the eu may offer lucky strategy and a much longer delay. what if mps demand a new referendum? you thought brexit was vote it down today! close to being settled? think again. they say all political careers, all premierships, end in failure. most end in better shape for weeks, exhausted ministers have than theresa may's. only been able to stand back she's on the verge of leaving and watch on while brexiteers made number ten with her authority this deal sound like the end shattered, the future of brexit of the world. still in deep doubt, but listen... demands growing louder for a general election. it's fair to ask, could any leader if we say we stand up have done much better? for 17.4 million people, then we have to get those people either way, there's a long list what they asked for — of contenders keen to move is to leave the european union into downing street and try. and this now is the only way. almost three years since the referendum and we're still no clearer what kind of and then another... brexit we will get, i will vote for the motion. the problem i have is that or even, perhaps, whether i cannot countenance we'll brexit at all. an even longer extension. a second referendum or even and i cannot countenance holding a general election are possible. european elections in may. how on earth did we get here? and then another... most of us don't like the agreement, here's a look back on theresa may's but it's a damn sight better

than sticking two fingers up last three years as pm. to the british public and saying we're going to ignore you. but a clutch of convinced eurosceptics were firm. her majesty the queen has asked me we have capitulated, this is not compromise, to form a new government, and i mr speaker, this has accepted. do we have a plan for been capitulation. brexit? we do. actually, we want a and theresa may's allies from northern ireland weren't budging... whatever means there red, white and blue brexit. the uk are available to us, is leaving the eu but we not turning should this agreement go through, back. brexit means brexit, means we will continue to oppose it. brexit, means brexit, means brexit, many more were furious... and we are going to make a success mr speaker, we cannot allow the future of this country to be held to ransom by the never ending of it. i am not going to be calling internal tory psychodrama, and people who want to put their own a snap election. the government jobs and ambitions before the jobs should call a another election. not and ambitions of people in this country! the rainbow of other parties another one? showing the strong and were never going to say yes... we've been ignored, sta ble another one? showing the strong and silenced and sidelined. stable leadership our country needs.

the futures of citizens across scotland and the rest of the uk held to ransom showing that strong, strong, strong, by right—wing brexiteers strong, strong and stable and the dup. leadership. we think it is pretty clear there will be a hung this is nothing more than deceit, parliament. is this strong and duplicity and deception from a government in desperation. so, what happens next? stable, prime minister? they should well, tonight, even members of the cabinet aren't sure. if we know anything about theresa may, it's not impossible that, somehow, stop playing politics with brexit. she will come up with another way of trying to get her deal through again. our white paper remains the only but remember, mps are working serious and credible proposition. i together behind the scenes to try to come up with a solution, probably a softer brexit, have treated the eu with nothing but that could find a majority in the house of commons respect. in the two years since the some time soon. referendum we have had a spirited national debate. we will, therefore, but in either case, it's likely the government will have to ask to further vote scheduled for the eu for a longer extension, with conditions attached. tomorrow and not proceed to divide but they could say no, in which case we might leave the house at this time. there will the european union without a deal in a couple of weeks. now be a vote of confidence in my leadership. the parliamentary party as they leave, on the day we were all meant to leave, the question of the country's does have confidence... leadership. the parliamentary party does have confidence. . ij leadership. the parliamentary party does have confidence... i think the british people are ready for us to departure from the eu is far move on. order! order! the ayes to from journey‘s end. laura kuenssberg reporting. we'll have more on brexit
