Theresa May blasts her own MPs for failing to back Brexit deal



The Prime Minister is due in Brussels where she will ask EU leaders to push Brexit back to June 30, but they are set to ignore that request and force a delay to December 31 or even March 31, 2020. The EU is also ready to impose humiliating conditions pushed by French President Emmanuel Macron, such as regular ‘behaviour reviews’ of the UK and a ‘Boris-proof’ lock preventing a new Tory leader tearing up Mrs May’s deal when she quits. In Parliament today, the Prime Minister came under attack from her own MPs with Eurosceptic Henry Smith accusing her of throwing away £1billion-a-month in payment to Brussels if she accepts a longer Article 50 extension tonight. Mrs May hit back: ‘We could have been outside the EU by now if we’d managed to get the deal through Parliament and I’m continuing to work to deliver Brexit’. But with talks with Labour set to start again tomorrow, Mrs May and Jeremy Corbyn dodged the subject completely during Prime Minister’s Questions. Mrs May will now jet out to Brussels as EU leaders urged Emmanuel Macron not to ‘humiliate’ her at tonight’s historic summit where they are expected to impose a lengthy delay on Britain leaving the bloc. German Chancellor Angela Merkel and European Council President Donald Tusk have urged the French President to show respect to avoid souring relations – but Brexiteers claim the UK is already a ‘laughing stock’.
