A European Union grandee today said the UK could be refused a Brexit extension if Theresa May fails to get agreement in the Commons.

Brexiter’s firm had assets of £548,573 five months after MEP claimed he had no money.

Ministers threaten to quit as PM makes scant progress.

Unthinkable for EU to agree to PM’s key demand on citizens’ rights, says Verhofstadt.

The European Parliament’s chief Brexit negotiator Guy Verhofstadt is calling on Theresa May to be “open” to a plan helping British people who want to retain EU citizenship after the UK leaves.

The British government has been accused of failing to protect the rights of British and EU citizens in the event of a no-deal Brexit, as Michel Barnier reiterated that he would not renegotiate the agreement currently on the table.
