No renegotiation of Brexit deal, MEPs say
By EUobserver
The European Parliament spelt out its position on Theresa May's Brexit and leadership problems on Wednesday afternoon, explicitly stating there could be no renegotiation of either the withdrawal agreement or the political declaration, and that without an Irish 'backstop', there would be no deal. However, "all efforts to make clear [the backstop was a last resort] were welcomed", the statement from Conference of Presidents added.
