Theresa May Just Cleared Her First U.K. Hurdle to Reaching a Brexit Deal

Britain’s exit from the European Union passed a crucial milestone on Wednesday evening, when after a marathon five-hour negotiation session Theresa May confirmed her cabinet had accepted the Brexit deal she has negotiated with the European Union.

The decision means U.K. parliament will now have to vote on the contents of the agreement, which at the time of May's address had not been made public.
