‘It seems more important to replace the prime minister than to find an agreement,’ Juncker said, describing May as a ‘very tough person’. Photograph: John Thys/AFP/Getty ImagesJean-Claude Juncker has suggested that the UK is drifting towards another Brexit extension in October as he criticised MPs for prioritising the prime minister’s removal over finding agreement on a Brexit deal.With May appearing on the brink of resignation, the European commission president spoke of his admiration for her resilience and his disdain for the attempts to remove her.“What I don’t like in the British debate is it seems more important to replace the prime minister than to find an agreement among themselves,” Juncker said in an interview with CNN. “This is a woman who knows how to do things but she is unable to succeed in doing things. I like her very much; she is a tough person.”Junker told CNN that he was “fed up” with the ongoing impasse but suggested that Brussels was resigned to a further request to extend the UK’s membership this autumn.The UK has until 31 October to agree a deal, leave without an agreement or seek a further extension of the article 50 negotiating period.Juncker said: “I hope they will agree among themselves, and they will leave [the EU] by the end of October ... I think it’s their patriotic duty to get an agreement.“I am getting fed up because we are [just] waiting for the next extension.”The commission president added that it was not about the “identity of the next prime minister; it’s about the withdrawal agreement”.(May 23, 2019) European parliament elections take place across the UK and the rest of the EU Nigel Farage’s Brexit party and the Liberal Democrats have both seen surges in support in the polls leading up to the election.(May 26, 2019) Results of the European elections are declared from 10pm, with the Conservatives expecting massive losses.

We are observers in a British stadium - it’s up for them to decide.”As leader of the House of Commons, Leadsom had been expected to give details on Thursday of the withdrawal agreement bill. But she claimed in her resignation letter that she could not sign up to facilitating another referendum.In her response, May denied that this was her intention. “I do not agree with you that the deal which we have negotiated with the European Union means that the United Kingdom will not become a sovereign country,” May wrote.May said that any bill was likely to attract an amendment seeking to bring a second referendum about. “That is why at cabinet yesterday we agreed to bring the bill forward and allow those MPs who want another referendum to put their case,” the prime minister said.

At her heaviest Josephine weighed over 19 stone

As Nigel Farage's populist road-show swept through Wolverhampton last week, it was easy to see his upstart Brexit Party is building a future for itself beyond this week's European election. Neither the Conservative nor Labour party know what has hit them. Outside, at a counter-protest led by a group of Labour activists, the B-word doesn’t get a mention.

Andrew Morton says the negative headlines are a cliché.
