With just 11 days to go until Britain is scheduled to leave the European Union,... British once again failed to break the political stalemate over Brexit.
Our Hong Yoo with the latest.
Britain's parliament once again rejected all four indicative motions as alternatives to Theresa May's thrice-rejected Brexit deal.
This means the second round of indicative votes failed to find a way out of the country's political deadlock.
Four options had been tabled by MPs and they could vote on multiple choices.
The options including a customs union that calls on the government to ensure a permanent and comprehensive UK-wide customs deal with the EU.
That was the motion that came closest to passing... losing by a mere three votes.
Others rejected were the options known as common market 2.0; confirmatory public vote, the motion that got the most support with but lost by 292 votes to 280; and parliamentary supremacy aimed at allowing parliament to block a no-deal Brexit.
The opposition Labour Party was open about its support for the customs union option and the confirmatory referendum option.
It said it has long supported a customs union, calling it a vital component of any deal that will protect manufacturing in the UK.
With the clock ticking toward a no-deal, hard Brexit,... the next step could possibly mean yet another vote on Prime Minister May's Brexit deal.
