Brexit Talks Deadlocked

British Prime Minister Theresa May abandoned plans to travel to Brussels in a last-gasp bid to save her Brexit deal as negotiations with the EU ground to a halt, the Daily Express reports.

Axios: “May faces a substantial loss if she presents to members of Parliament a deal that’s largely unchanged for Tuesday’s ‘meaningful vote.’ She’s been trying to achieve changes to the Brexit agreement with the European Union to avoid Britain remaining indefinitely in a customs union and to maintain an open border on the island of Ireland — known as the ‘Irish backstop.’ However, the E.U. is reluctant to change the existing deal. Now, May’s under pressure to delay Tuesday’s vote. Talks were expected to resume Monday. Britain is due to leave the E.U. on March 29.”
