LONDON - British Prime Minister Theresa May on Wednesday resisted demands from within her party to give a clear timetable for stepping down, with her spokesman insisting she would stay until Britain's exit from the EU is finalised.

In March, May promised that after taking Britain out of the European Union, she would let another leader negotiate future bilateral ties with the bloc. He also said she hoped to hold another vote on her EU divorce deal before European elections take place in Britain on May 23, by bringing forward a bill to implement the text.

The government has for several weeks been in talks with the main opposition Labour party to find a compromise deal, but there is no sign of progress yet.
