Brexit: 'Critical' week ahead as Prime Minister Theresa May deflects attacks from all sides

ABC  

Britain's besieged Prime Minister, Theresa May, has warned that a leadership change would not make negotiations to leave the European Union any easier, as opponents in her Conservative Party continue to threaten to unseat her over her draft Brexit deal. Key points: Theresa May says the next seven days are "critical" for Brexit talks Some in her party want her to quit and the divorce deal to be renegotiated She is also facing an uphill battle to convince Parliament to back the deal As furious Conservative rebels try to gather the numbers to trigger a no-confidence vote, Mrs May insisted she had not considered quitting. Mrs May added that the next seven days were going to be "critical" for successful Brexit talks, and that she would be travelling to Brussels to meet with EU leaders before an emergency European Council summit on November 25. He told Sky News on Sunday that his party would vote against the deal and demanded that Mrs May return to Brussels and renegotiate the divorce agreement.
