With 10 days to go, Theresa May meets ministers in bid to salvage Brexit deal

British Prime Minister Theresa May Image: Han Yan/Xinhua News Agency/PA Images British Prime Minister Theresa May Image: Han Yan/Xinhua News Agency/PA Images THE BRITISH CABINET is meeting this morning to discuss how to proceed with Brexit negotiations.

Bercow said MPs from both sides of the House had expressed concerns to him about being asked to vote repeatedly on the “same fundamental proposition”. Despite this, Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay has suggested a vote could still take place next week. Last week, MPs backed a motion calling for Brexit to be delayed until 30 June. The vote isn’t legally binding and the EU must agree to any delay. Brexit is due to officially happen in just 10 days.Many politicians have raised concerns about the backstop element of the deal, which aims to avoid a hard border between the Republic and Northern Ireland and could see the North stay aligned to some EU rules.
