Brexit delayed for second time as Theresa May asks for further extension of Article 50
Theresa May has said Brexit will be delayed for a second time. Speaking after seven hours of talks the Prime Minister offered to meet Jeremy Corbyn to come up with a plan for Brexit. The UK had been due to leave the European Union on March 29 but following a failure to reach a deal Brexit was delayed until April 12. But on April 2 the Prime Minister told the nation she was requesting a further extension of Article 50. Cabinet ministers arrived at Number 10 at around 9am for what was originally due to be a five-hour meeting.
Mrs May said she hoped to agree a deal with Mr Corbyn which could be put to the Commons for approval before the April 10 European Council summit, but, if that cannot be achieved, then a number of alternative options could be put to the vote. Insisting that any resolution should take the UK out of the EU by May 22, Mrs May said: “This is a decisive moment in the story of these islands and it will require national unity to deliver the national interest.” Mrs May said: “I have always been clear that we could make a success of no-deal in the long term but leaving with a deal is the best solution. “So we will need a further extension of Article 50 – one that is as short as possible and which ends when we pass a deal
Katie Price's mum reveals why she voted for Brexit despite having lived in Spain
The roads over there are absolutely immaculate… they’re good. All paid by us. Yet over here, potholes everywhere, whatever,” she told an incredibly bemused-looking Reid.
While Price’s mum isn’t currently living in Spain, she moved out there to improve her health after being diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, a terminal lung condition.

Katie’s mum as world authority- done deal ..brexit a certainty now
If I had known we were paying for Spanish roads, I would have voted leave.
Why not pay for Spanish roads,the EU has paid for and revolutionised the roads/other public facilities in Cornwall-the county that has had more EU funding than any other- the residents , so grateful for saving their local economy...oh sorry, no they voted leave...
Whatever is said, it clearly wasn't a good idea. The people of Wales voted to leave, despite the fact that Wales received £650million per year from the EU,
Proposed Brexit talks between Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn feature heavily on the front of the day's papers. "It's time for national unity - over to you, Mr Corbyn" - declares the Daily Express. The paper believes the prime minister is taking a massive gamble by inviting what it calls the "hard left Labour leader" to thrash out a new Brexit plan. The Guardian quotes unnamed sources who say it will be extremely difficult for the two leaders to find an agreement. The Daily Mirror's head of politics, Jason Beattie, says Mr Corbyn "will be aware that Mrs May's forthcoming departure means any agreement could be ripped up by her successor" which is "hardly the basis for any meaningful negotiations".
The Daily Telegraph accuses the PM of ignoring the will of her cabinet by ruling out a no-deal Brexit. On its front page it carries the photos of 14 ministers who - it claims - "implored her" to keep no deal on the table. The paper's story has been disputed by another minister, Claire Perry, who says only four cabinet members spoke explicitly in favour of no extension and no deal. She says the story is based on "totally inaccurate leaks from a colleague behaving reprehensibly". The Daily Mail says senior Tories fear their party could be on the verge of a split that could bring down the government. The Times, meanwhile, appears to despair of all politicians. It urges "right-minded people" to join our "dysfunctional parties" en masse and bring them back to a sensible place where they reflect the balance of opinion in the nation.

Brexit latest: New bill to stop no-deal exit tabled by cross-party alliance of MPs Legislation designed to clear the Commons in a single day on Wednesday - to compel an extension to Article 50 beyond 12 April
MPs will make a fresh attempt to compel Theresa May to delay Brexit further by passing legislation in a single day, a cross-party alliance has announced. A bill – designed to clear the Commons on Wednesday – would prevent a “drift into no deal by accident in just 10 days’ time”, its supporters say.
The move will delay a further round of “indicative votes”, following the failure to reach a consensus on Monday night, which raised the threat of a crash-out Brexit.

Who says Wales will be worse off post Brexit ...obviously you are bound to ..but lets have some facts to back that up .

They haven't said they won't either , so it's speculation that Wales will be worse off.

After 2020, Wales will no longer be eligible for EU funds and it will have to be seen whether comparable regional aid money comes from the UK government. In February 2017, Plaid Cymru tabled an amendment to the Brexit Bill seeking assurances about future funding which wasn't backed by the Conservatives, leading to accusations that promises Wales wouldn’t lose funding had effectively been broken. The UK government has set up a "shared prosperity fund", with the aim of going at least some way to replacing EU money and reducing inequalities across the four UK nations. But in September 2018, Theresa May declined to answer whether the Welsh Government will control that fund.
