Brexit timetable 'remains the same', May tells Juncker

British Prime Minister Theresa May has told the European Commission President that her timetable for leaving the EU is still on track.


She made the statement in a phone call to Jean-Claude Juncker this morning.

It follows yesterday's decision by the British High Court that parliament should have a say in the triggering of Article 50 - the formal mechanism for exiting the EU.

In what was described as a short phone call, Ms May told Mr Juncker that yesterday's ruling does not change anything.

Ms May's spokesperson said: "The PM explained to both Chancellor Merkel and President Juncker that while the government was disappointed with the judgment, it had strong legal arguments ahead of the case moving to the Supreme Court.

"The PM also confirmed that the Government's planned timetable for notification of Article 50 remains unchanged."
