(12 Dec 2018) UK Prime Minister Theresa May arrived back at Downing Street in London on Tuesday after travelling between the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium in one day as she bid to save her Brexit divorce deal. May said she found a shared determination among some European leaders to persuade the British Parliament to accept a proposed Brexit deal, but her continental counterparts insisted any room for revisions was small. While in Brussels May met with European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and European Council President Donald Tusk. Earlier in the day she met with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte in The Hague and German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin. So many British lawmakers had opposed the deal on the terms of Britain's break up and future relationship with the European Union that May postponed a planned vote in the House of Commons instead of seeing it rejected. The British Prime Minister plans to visit Irish counterpart Leo Varadkar in Dublin on Wednesday. =========================================================== Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: [email protected] (ii) they should check with the applicable collecting society in their Territory regarding the clearance of any sound recording or performance included within the AP Television News service (iii) they have editorial responsibility for the use of all and any content included within the AP Television News service and for libel, privacy, compliance and third party rights applicable to their Territory.
