UK PM Theresa May secured changes to the Brexit agreement with the EU that won't alter the terms of the withdrawal, but offers legal assurances to back it up
During talks with the European Union in Strasbourg late Monday, the UK Prime Minister and Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay"secured legally binding changes" to"strengthen and improve" the UK's agreement on withdrawing from Europe, Cabinet Office Minister David Lidington told Parliament in a statement. Those changes would not affect the terms of the withdrawal, but offer legal assurances to back it up.
Juncker encouraged the EU to"support the efforts of Prime Minister May to ensure an orderly withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union" in 18 days' time.The UK Parliament is scheduled to debate and vote on May's withdrawal agreement Tuesday.So far, there's been widespread skepticism that she can win enough votes to push it through -- her previous version of the plan lost by a stunning 230 votes in January.
