UK Prime Minister Theresa May mounts last-ditch bid to win Brexit deal backing

ABC  

British Prime Minister Theresa May has offered both a promise on workers' rights and a reassuring letter from European Union leaders as she implored British politicians to support her floundering Brexit deal. Key points: British parliament will vote on Mrs May's Brexit deal on Tuesday Mrs May said leaving the EU without a deal "would cause turbulence for our economy' Several previously opposed British legislators have swung behind the agreement But the British leader had few concrete measures up her sleeve a day before a vote in Parliament which looks likely to see her Brexit deal rejected. In a speech Monday at a ceramics factory in the central England city of Stoke-on-Trent, Mrs May said "people's faith in the democratic process and their politicians would suffer catastrophic harm" if her deal is rejected and Brexit was abandoned. In a bid to win support, Mrs May sought reassurances from EU leaders about the deal's most contentious measure — an insurance policy known as the "backstop" that would keep Britain in an EU customs union to maintain an open border between Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland after Brexit. "We're in the very, very final stages of the end-game here," said Nick Boles, one of the Conservative politicians behind the plan, who said he would vote for Mrs May's deal.
