Labour Party Leader Jeremy Cornyn says his party will seek a second vote on Brexit, after weeks of wavering on the decision. The opposition party will file legislation to delay Brexit and prevent a "no-deal" break from The European Union from happening.
The decision was condemned by Brexit supporters, who called it a "betrayal" of the 2016 vote, in which over 17 million Britons voted to leave the single trading bloc.
Nigel Farage, leader of his newly created "Brexit Party," noted that millions of Labour supporters actually voted to Leave the EU. "Five million people who voted for Brexit then voted for Jeremy Corbyn the following year. For them, this is a disaster," he said. "A majority of Labour seats voted to Leave."
