Brexit vote: What just happened and what comes next?

With only approximately two more months before a default no-deal "hard Brexit," the British Parliament has decisively rejected Prime Minister May's proposed plan for leaving the European Union.

There is a no confidence vote in works which, if successful, will dissolve the government and force another general election.

    The Royal Family may be as rich as Croesus at the taxpayer's expense, but whatever other problems you may have with them, their role in government is purely ceremonial (which is probably why the Bloody Tower is not currently full of politicians).

    So you are arguing that their role should not be purely ceremonial?
