LONDON: British Prime Minister Theresa May will chair a five-hour cabinet meeting on Tuesday in an attempt to plot a course out of the Brexit maelstrom as she comes under pressure to either leave the European Union without a deal or call an election.

Asked whether there would be a much longer extension if May's deal failed once again, he said:"That is absolutely a risk and a big looming risk at the moment."
