LONDON - After years of wrangling over Britain’s exit from the European Union, lawmakers are now tackling the finer detail: should Big Ben chime to mark the exact moment of Brexit?
Since Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservatives won a large majority at a December election, Britain’s EU exit at the end of January has become a certainty. Lawmakers will on Tuesday continue debating the legislation required to enact it. The amendment was not selected for a vote on Tuesday, meaning the lawmakers first attempt to ensure Big Ben chimes for Brexit has failed. There are other routes they can use to win their bid however.
The work on the tower, one of Britain’s most photographed buildings, is not due to be completed until 2021.
