The House voted against her Brexit deal on March 12th. However, the MPs (members of Parliament) also rejected the no-deal Brexit on March 13th.

On March 14th, lawmakers will vote on whether to delay Brexit beyond March 29th-- and many see the delay as an opportunity to push for a soft Brexit, maintaining the UK’s strong connections to the EU.
在3月14日，議員們將投票決定是否延遲329脫歐期限，許多人認為，延遲脫歐可以尋求更好的方案，讓英國與歐盟仍留有強烈連結。
delay(v.)延遲
The tricky part is that the vote is actually non-binding since British lawmakers will still need the EU’s approval regarding the extension, and under the current law, the UK could very well leave the EU without a deal on March 29th.
不過其中的癥結點在於，就算投票通過，英國還是需要歐盟同意才可推遲脫歐期限，在現行法律下，英國仍可在3月29日無協議脫歐。
