Brexit: EU points finger at UK for Theresa May's deal defeat
But that didn't work and by this stage of the Brexit process, Germany, France, Ireland and others have slightly differing priorities.Theresa May would need to formally ask the EU's 27 leaders for an extension
However, if Theresa May were tempted to use next week's EU leaders' summit in Brussels to ask for new concessions, opinion would be divided, even if leaders managed, as they mostly have until now, to keep differences behind closed doors. Clearly on a technical, civil servant-level the EU believes that EU-UK negotiations can't go any further.
If the EU were to move at all on its Brexit position now, that would be a political decision which can only be taken by the leaders of the 27 EU member countries.
