Pressed by Parliament, Theresa May has asked for more time to reach an agreement on Brexit

UK Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday told British MPs that need time to reach an agreement with the European Union (EU) on Brexit this may satisfy the parliament, after this chamber has rejected their previous projects.

"After having agreed to further negotiations with the EU, we now need more time to close the process"he said according to the agency AFP, just a few weeks on March 29, the date set for finalizing the exit of the UK from the EU after the Brexti was approved in a referendum in 2016.

British MPs they overwhelmingly rejected the Brexit agreement with the European Commission and accepted by the other 27 members of the bloc, create a scenario of uncertainty.

Next round of voting in parliament in order to approve a plan for exit from the EU are scheduled for February 27.

London and Brussels negotiated and agreed on Brexit terms, including the account they have to pay to leave the EU, and in particular the future relations between the UK and the bloc, on issues such as the movement of people, new trade agreements and the customs borders, among others.

But May's government had difficulty in ensuring that Parliament approved the conditions of the new land border between the Republic of Ireland, a member of the EU, and Northern Ireland, a member of the United Kingdom .

Specifically, there is concern that strict controls on the movement of people and goods affect the agreements of "Good Friday" which resulted in extreme violence between Catholics and Protestants, separated by the border, which afflicted the Irish island between 1960 and 1998.

At the same time, Brexit promoters are wary of the EU's plan to simply maintain the current situation that would place Northern Ireland in a special scheme outside the United Kingdom and in practice within the community bloc.

All actors agree that the worst case scenario would be to leave the UK EU on March 29 without an agreed plan. reason why for a long time we speculated on the possibility of prolonging this term.
