100 days to Brexit: Everything that still needs to be done

By peace 5 years ago

The Prime Minister was forced to pull a Commons vote last week on her Brexit plan.

This is because so many Conservative MPs and the DUP are unhappy with the Irish backstop.

The backstop says that if no other solution can be found then the whole of the UK will remain in the EU’s orbit to prevent a return of a hard border in Ireland.

Mrs May is frantically trying to get further concessions from Brussels to assure MPs the backstop will be time-limited and only used as a last resort.

But as EU leaders have been adamant they will not reopen talks on the Withdrawal Agreement the Prime Minister is unlikely to get a legally-binding concession.
