More talks are planned between the British government and the opposition Labour Party to find consensus over a European Union withdrawal agreement, with no firm date for the discussions to end, Prime Minister Theresa May’s spokesman said on Tuesday.
The spokesman said the talks so far had been serious and constructive and there was full understanding among senior ministers on the need to make progress.
