The United Kingdom and the European Union have agreed to deal for splitting up, signaling a big breakthrough in the lead-up to Britain’s planned exit from the EU at the end of the month.

“We’ve got a great new deal that takes back control — now Parliament should get Brexit done on Saturday so we can move on to other priorities like the cost of living, the NHS, violent crime and our environment,” U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Thursday.

Despite the apparent deal, Johnson must now get support from U.K lawmakers. He will put his new deal up for a vote Saturday.

One of Johnson’s allies, the Democratic Unionist Party, told NBC News that they don’t intend to vote in favor of the deal.
