For the first time in the history of the Games, the same logo will be used for the Olympics and the Paralympics. "I think that with this new logo, this symbol of Paris 2024, we are going to be the witness of a unifying and beautiful event," said Anne Hidalgo, the mayor of Paris.
这将是奥运史上奥运会和残奥会首次使用相同会徽。巴黎市长安妮•伊达尔戈称："我认为有了这个新会徽，这个巴黎2024的标志，我们将见证一个团结美好的盛会。"
Brexit timetable rejected
英国月底脱欧计划泡汤
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Tuesday was defeated in a vote on his Brexit timetable. Lawmakers voted 308 to 322 to turn down his proposed rapid timetable for the Brexit bill. As a result, Johnson has to pause the withdrawal agreement bill.
22日，英国首相约翰逊在关于脱欧时间表的投票中受挫。议会议员以308:322票否决了约翰逊提出的脱欧协议快速立法时间表，约翰逊不得不宣布脱欧草案由此暂停。
After the vote, the prime minister said: "I must express my disappointment that the House has again voted for delay rather than a timetable that would have guaranteed the UK would have been in a position to leave the EU on Oct 31 with a deal.
投票结束后，约翰逊表示："我必须表达我的失望，因为议会再次投票赞成推迟脱欧，而不是制定一份确保英国能够在10月31日达成脱欧协议的时间表。
We now face further uncertainty and the EU must now make up their minds over how to answer parliament's request for a delay." Earlier, the prime minister warned he would seek a general election if MPs dismissed the timetable.
我们现在面临着进一步的不确定性，欧盟如今必须就如何回应议会的延迟请求做出决定。"约翰逊此前曾警告称，如果时间表遭议会否决，他可能会寻求大选。
