'Mrs Softee': UK papers react to Theresa May's Brexit deal

A boost for Theresa May delivered over breakfast in Brussels with Jean-Claude Juncker that was swiftly blunted by a postprandial reality check from Donald Tusk. Here the papers digest Friday's Brexit breakthrough.

"Rejoice! We're on our way" exclaims the Daily Mail on its front page, before turning its attention to the "liberal-Left chattering classes" in its leading article. Referring to a change in fortunes for Mrs May from Monday, when a first round of talks with Mr Junker, the European Commission president, collapsed, it says: "What a difference a week makes! After her flight to Brussels in yesterday's small hours, Mrs May has returned with a breakthrough to knock her critics sideways." The paper acknowledges there "are sure to be setbacks ahead", but adds: "After Mrs May's triumph, there can be no stopping Brexit now."
