MAY: UK SHOULD 'HOLD NERVE' ON BREXIT

UK Prime Minister Theresa May says it's time for British MPs to 'hold their nerve' over Brexit.

She'll address the House of Commons later (APPROX 1230GMT) on negotiations with the EU.

Mrs May is trying to secure changes to the controversial Irish border backstop in the Brexit deal she agreed with Brussels.

The EU says it won't re-open negotiations on the Withdrawal Agreement, but that talks with London will continue this week.
