Not correct, and using caps lock doesn’t change any facts.
The house yesterday declined to support May’s negotiated withdrawal agreement, but the text of it still exists as an agreed document between the British government and the EU which Parliament can ratify at any time.
Today the house declined to support a No Deal scenario but the vote did not have the effect of amending or repealing the EU withdrawal act, which Parliament debated and passed thanks to Gina Miller and the Supreme Court. The legislation still sits on the statute book and as things stand right now, we will still leave on 29 March, whether or not the deal is accepted by parliament.
Tomorrow the house will be asked to debate a motion that proposes the only viable reason to ask for an extension to the A50 deadline is to give Parliament time to pass the withdrawal deal and any other measures needed to ensure the UK leaves the EU smoothly. It also asks the house to recognise that in the absence of any viable strategy, there is no reason for the EU to grant an extension.
Parliament is being lined up for a third go at Teresa May’s deal.

You don’t understand the operation of statute law or parliamentary procedure and are just embarrassing yourself. Please desist.
