The House of Commons in the United Kingdom votes in favor of the government's Brexit withdrawal agreement, paving the way for the UK to leave the European Union on January 31, 2020. The bill will now proceed to the House of Lords for final approval. The agreement also sets a deadline for concluding trade talks with the EU, known as the "transition period," by December 31, 2020.
