MPs Vote to Join Customs Union with EU

It took MPs around three and a half years to finalize Brexit, but they recently voted, by a slim majority, to support a Liberal Democrat bill aimed at joining a customs union with the EU. Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey hailed this as a historic victory against the Conservatives’ Brexit deal. However, the likelihood of the bill leading to a new Brexit agreement remains low. The vote highlighted divisions within the Labour party, with some backbenchers supporting the motion.
