British commuters on their way to work on Wednesday (April 3) were relieved that Prime Minister Theresa May said she would seek another Brexit delay to agree an EU divorce deal with the opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, a gamble that could finally see a European Union divorce deal agreed but also tear her party apart.
Despite her attempts at unity, commuters were still fed up that the divisive Brexit process is yet to be solved.
After her EU withdrawal deal was rejected three times by lawmakers, with parliament and her Conservative Party hopelessly divided over Brexit, May said on Tuesday (April 2) she would reach out to Corbyn in a bid to break the impasse. The two party leaders are expected to meet later on Wednesday.
Mays compromise dominated the headlines of newspapers, with tabloid ‘The Sun’ displaying a picture of Corbyn’s face on a lightbulb with the headline “After 7 hours of cabinet lockdown, May’s gone soft over Brexit mess. Is that your bright idea?”
