The European Parliament votes overwhelmingly to approve the Brexit deal with London, clearing the final hurdle for Britain's departure from the EU. The vote at the parliament in Brussels passes by 621 to 49, prompting MEPs to burst into a chorus of "Auld Lang Syne", a traditional Scottish song of farewell. IMAGES
Images of the UK Parliament in London as MPs prepare for a momentous third vote on Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit divorce deal, which could end a months-long crisis or risk Britain crashing out of the EU in two weeks. The House of Commons has twice rejected May's withdrawal agreement, both times by large margins, but has been unable to agree any alternative -- and time is running out. IMAGES of the UK Parliament

Crowds gather outside parliament as ministers vote on the Brexit deal. With just over two months to go until the scheduled Brexit date of March 29, Britain is still bitterly divided over how and even whether it should split away from the EU. IMAGES of crowds with flags outside the UK parliament.
Journalists asked Boris Johnson if he would like to apologise for with some of the less diplomatic comments he has directed at world leaders over the years following his first press conference with US Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday. Johnson was appointed Foreign Secretary by Theresa May, in a government reshuffle following Brexit. Johnson fronted the leave campaign which has been criticised with making misleading claims over government spending and immigration.
