May warned delay plea will be rejected without details
British prime minister Theresa May has been warned her last-ditch plea to extend next Friday’s Brexit deadline will be rejected within 48 hours unless she can explain exactly how the extra time will be used.
Tánaiste Simon Coveney and the EU’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier issued the threat last night — with Mr Barnier openly citing a British election or second referendum as reasons to allow a delay.
