British Prime Minister Theresa May has admitted that the only way of passing her Brexit deal is with support from the opposition Labour Party, in comments that are likely to deepen the tensions on her own side of the political divide in the Britain.
Nearly 30 ministers have quit so far from May's government to vote against her deal.
The House of Commons voted 286-344 against the withdrawal agreement struck between Prime Minister Theresa May and the EU.
Theresa May on Wednesday bowed to mounting pressure from within her own Conservative Party and offered to resign as UK Prime Minister if her MPs agreed to back her twice-defeated Brexit divorce bill to get it over the line in a third parliamentary vote.
"I hope we can all agree, we are now at the moment of decision. And in doing so we must confront the reality of the hard choices before us," May said.
Worn down by three years of indecision in London, European Union leaders on Thursday grudgingly offered the U.K. more time to ease itself out of the bloc, delaying by several weeks — but not eliminating — the threat of a chaotic British exit.
The UK government admitted on Tuesday that India is not the first tier country for post-Brexit free trade agreement (FTA) and a lot more work would be required before Britain can start negotiating such a deal with India.
There is unlikely to be a majority in favour of a no-deal chaotic Brexit, which would then give way to a third parliamentary motion on Thursday to determine if the Brexit deadline of March 29 needs to be extended, which would then have to be ratified by the EU.
The EU’s chief Brexit negotiator, Michel Barnier, said the only talks that mattered now were “between the government in London and the Parliament in London”, indicating very little scope for concessions from the EU side ahead of Tuesday's vote.

Britain's Queen Elizabeth II and other senior members of the royal family may have to be evacuated if the UK experiences riots as a result of a no-deal Brexit next month, a media report said on Sunday.
In a series of votes on Tuesday, lawmakers rejected a no-deal Brexit by 318 votes to 310, undermining the May government's argument that Britain would be willing to crash out of the 28-member EU without an agreement on March 29.
May said that, after taking the votes into account and talking to the EU, her revised deal would be brought back to the Commons "as soon as possible" for a second "meaningful vote".
Speaking at an event to mark the 100 years of Sandringham Women's Institute in Norfolk on Thursday, the Queen said: "The continued emphasis on patience, friendship, a strong community focus, and considering the needs of others, are as important today as they were when the group was founded all those years ago.
"Indian parents do not have to worry about their children's prospects of coming to the UK for study post-Brexit," Vivienne Stern, the Director of Universities UK International said.
May won a narrow victory, 325 votes to 306 votes, on an opposition motion seeking to topple her government and trigger a general election.
Following her defeat in the House of Commons, May said that the MPs have established what they are against but not what they are for.
