LONDON - Britain’s parliament was due to vote on Thursday on seeking a last-minute Brexit delay and Prime Minister Theresa May sought to use the prospect of a long extension to push lawmakers to back her EU divorce deal, which they have twice rejected.
With her authority at an all-time low, May’s finance minister Philip Hammond said the prime minister’s plan was back on the agenda. “It’s clear that the House of Commons has to find a consensus around something and if it isn’t the prime minister’s deal I think it is likely to be something which is much less to the taste of those on the hard Brexit wing of my party.”
DUP leader Arlene Foster said the party was working with the government to try to find a way of leaving the EU with a deal. Sterling surged, hitting nine-month highs against the U.S. dollar and a nearly two-year high against the euro, as investors saw less chance of Britain leaving the EU without a transition deal to smooth its exit.
