UK’s May resists demands from within her party to give a clear timetable for stepping down over Brexit delay
Prime Minister Theresa May on Wednesday resisted demands from within her party to give a clear timetable for stepping down, with her spokesman insisting she would stay until Britain's exit from the EU is finalised.
With Brexit now delayed to October 31, however, her critics fear she might stay in office for many more months and are pressing for clarity on her departure.Anger has flared up after dismal local election results last week, and senior lawmaker Graham Brady met May on Tuesday to relay his colleagues' concerns.
The prime minister agreed a Brexit deal with the EU last November, but MPs had rejected it three times.Earlier, Brexit-backing Conservative Andrea Jenkyns confronted May in the House of Commons, saying "the public no longer trust her to run Brexit negotiations." A Labour spokesman said the party hoped to establish "in the next few days" whether a deal was possible.
