Good Brexit? Bad Brexit? No Brexit at all?

British Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit withdrawal agreement with the European Union suffered its third successive defeat in Parliament on Friday. That means Britain could still be heading for a no-deal exit from the EU on April 12, a soft Brexit, or no Brexit at all.
The one certain thing is that May's deal is toast. The math just doesn't add up in her favor.
So what happens next? If Parliament votes next week for an alternate approach to Brexit that could earn the EU's favor, May might throw her support behind that approach. The BBC's Europe editor suggests that the EU might then accept that altered Brexit form and, if Parliament passed a vote to give it effect, agree to Britain's withdrawal on May 22.
