British Prime Minister Theresa May was battling Friday to stave off another defeat for her Brexit divorce deal, imploring the European Union to make concessions to help her win approval from Parliament.

In a speech just three weeks before Britain is due to leave the EU, May planned to tell the bloc that "it is in the European interest for the UK to leave with a deal."
May's office said she will urge the EU to make changes to its withdrawal agreement with Britain, warning that "decisions that the European Union makes over the next few days will have a big impact on the outcome of the vote."
