Earlier, EU leaders ruled out further Brexit talks, with the European Council insisting that Brussels’ current deal with London on the UK’s withdrawal from the bloc remains the “best and only way” for an orderly Brexit.
In an article published by The Telegraph on Sunday, UK Prime Minister Theresa May signalled her readiness to return to negotiations with Brussels to “battle for Britain and Northern Ireland”.
The Daily Mail quoted sources as saying that the plan aims to protect May from being ousted by MPs who want negotiations on Brexit’s second stage related to a new trade deal.
