BBC World Service - World Business Report, British PM suffers new Brexit defeat

British MPs have voted against Theresa May's EU withdrawal deal for the second time

British lawmakers have voted by a majority of 149 against Theresa May's EU withdrawal deal. We get reaction from John Longworth, chairman of pro-Brexit group Leave Means Leave and Allie Renison, from the Institute of Directors. We also hear from Clemens Fuest, who heads the Institute for Economic Research in Munich; and what is the reaction amongst businesses in Northern Ireland? John Campbell is the BBC's business editor in Belfast.

Also on the programme, makers of traditional camembert cheese are upset with French lawmakers amid a labelling row; we hear from Veronique Richez-Lerouge, president of the Association of Terroir Cheese.
