Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May makes a statement inside 10 Downing Street in London on March 20, 2019, following her request to EU leaders to extend Brexit until June 30. Jonathan Brady / POOL / AFPBritish Prime Minister Theresa May will renew attempts to push through her Brexit plan after she dramatically offered to quit to save her deal and MPs failed in their own bid to break the deadlock.
Brexit minister Steve Barclay said the outcome “strengthens our view that the deal our government has negotiated is the best option”.MPs have twice rejected May’s Brexit deal, both times by large majorities, prompting the leader to announce what is expected to be her final offer. There are signs of softening among her rebel MPs, with a number of Eurosceptics performing a U-turn including former foreign secretary Boris Johnson — a likely contender to replace May — who told fellow MPs on Wednesday he would support the deal.
Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper questioned whether her “sacrifice” would be in vain while the Guardian called her resignation offer “a stitch-up for a bad deal”. Downing Street has hopes of returning its deal to MPs for a third vote this week but said it would only do this if it believed it would win.
