U.K.: Theresa May to Seek Brexit Extension, Cooperation with Opposition
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In Britain, Prime Minister Theresa May said Tuesday she will ask
European leaders for an additional Brexit extension, after lawmakers
failed to agree on either May's original deal negotiated with the EU or
a series of alternative exit strategies. May said she would enter into
discussions with opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to come up with
a new joint proposal. Britain is currently scheduled to leave the EU at
the end of next week.
