British lawmakers voted 330 to 231 in favor of Boris Johnson's EU exit deal, turning the page on the Brexit crisis. The legislation now heads to parliament's upper chamber and is expected to become law in the coming weeks

LONDON - Lawmakers approved legislation on Thursday which will allow Britain to leave the European Union on Jan. 31 with an exit deal, ending more than three years of tumult over the terms of the unprecedented divorce.

“It is time to get Brexit done. This bill does so,” Brexit minister Stephen Barclay told lawmakers, summing up hours of debate in parliament. The focus has instead turned to upcoming talks on long-term arrangements with the EU that will kick in when a transition period - during which Britain remains subject to EU rules - ends on Dec. 31.
