British MPs vote down eight proposed Brexit plans

Newsday

Available for over a year

British MPs have voted on a series of alternative courses of action on Brexit, but none of the eight options commanded a majority. The one that came closest to success was a motion calling for a commitment to negotiate a permanent customs union with the EU. A second phase of the non-binding process is planned for Monday. The Roman Catholic Church in Chile has been ordered to pay compensation to three victims in a sex abuse case against an influential former priest. The aircraft manufacturer Boeing has issued changes to the anti-stall system implicated in the crashes of two of its new 737 Max aircraft. Included is a software upgrade designed to make it easier for the pilot to override the system, and a malfunction warning light that was previously sold as an optional safety feature.
