As Theresa May heads to Berlin and Paris to plead for another extension, our writers assess the mood in the two capitals

The view from Berlin Angela Merkel is due to receive May on the steps of her office at midday for what her spokesman Steffen Seibert described as an attempt to seek a further extension of article 50. The two leaders are expected to hold discussions over a working lunch in a dining room in Merkel’s office suite on the seventh floor of the chancellery building.

Well they aren't feeling the pressure are they? Frustration but not pressure.

TMay seems unabashed as everybody now pays the price of her years of solo runs & her running down of the clock.

UE under pressure as UK seeks new Brexitdelay ? 😂😂😂😂

Please get down from your high horse. The persistent arrogance believing that the EU needs the UK more than vise versa is exactly was is causing this Brexit circus.

F Brexit!

They're not really under pressure though are they?

Let's say she succeed. (unlikely) 25 more to go. because only?

What pressure? seriously....

What a colossal joke this has become. The UK had a great future ahead as an independent nation and you just keep effing it up.

What deal has 'Treason May' been offered by the EU? You have to question why she is so determined to push this defeated deal through? Has she been bribed? The PM is now working against the interests of the UK. Intending to pursue her agreement with the EU - rejected by Parliament

No they aren't!

What's their cut ? What deals have been done ? Public interest ? Your having a laugh .

Does Mrs.May not realise that the british people have had enough of her talking to herself in church and want brexit completed this week!

Brexit latest news: Theresa May to request Brexit delay today as Donald Tusk 'suggests flextension'Theresa May will write to Donald Tusk to request a Brexit delay today, as the European Council president is proposing to offer UK a 12-month "flexible" extension.

Anything else and its lights out on the Conservatives. What a tragicomedy this turned out to be.

Brexit LIVE: Theresa May to betray her Brexit red lines and capitulate to Corbyn’s demandsTHERESA May is on the verge of binding Britain into a permanent customs union in the hope of winning Labour support for her failed Brexit deal. When the Referendum was held people, who voted Leave believed we would get a deal with the EU , they were told it would be easy . 2 years later it’s my belief that people like the ERG , don’t and never did want a deal . It’s time Mrs May looked to all her opposition for support.

Brexit latest news: Theresa May to meet Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron ahead of crunch Brexit summitTheresa May will travel to Berlin and Paris tomorrow to meet with Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron ahead of a crunch Brexit summit in Brussels on Wednesday. I had no idea how damaging this customs union would be for us theresa_may & jeremycorbyn . At least give us some strength for our future & allow us to revoke article 50. I'm wondering if May should be tried for war crimes, because at this rate she's setting things up for long term civil unrest - even civil war. Brexit You mean jeremycorbyn and theresa_may agree I should pay artificially high prices for resources with alternative uses.

Editorial: Angela Merkel is asking the right question about Brexit – and it scuppers everythingIn every centre of power the thought is slowly crystallising that no-deal Brexit is at best a purely theoretical possibility I love you Merkel FByeSuikast4Nisan2015 The whole world trades on WTO terms, the US , Canadian border is seamless, noproblemnodeal Eu never expected a no deal to be anything other than theoretical and the talk regarding crashing out was totally superficial. Ireland and eu never had any plans for a hard border.
