Parliament, the law making body of the United Kingdom, is now back in session after its summer recess1. And along with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who was elected to the job on July 24th, Britain's leaders are grappling with the same issue that's dominated their government for years, the Brexit or British exit from the European Union. In 2016, Britain's voted 52 percent to 48 percent to separate their nation from the EU.

None of the Union's 28 member countries had done that before, and the EU and Britain's government have not yet reached a deal on the terms of the Brexit, what the new laws, trade conditions and borders will look like. So the Brexit, which was supposed to happen earlier this year, has been delayed repeatedly. It is possible for Britain to leave the EU without an agreement in place, what's called a no deal Brexit. But that would cause a lot of uncertainty2 that many leaders are hoping to avoid. Though others say it's time to go no matter what.
