British MPs want additional guarantees against a 'no-deal' exit

and even change Prime Minister Theresa May’s request that the EU agree to delay Brexit until June 30.

The bill passed through the Commons by a single vote last week and was then approved with minor changes in the House of Lords, an unelected body whose role is to refine and scrutinise legislation, which the Commons then had to sign off on.
