British Prime Minister Theresa May said she will present a 'new, bold offer' to lawmakers with 'an improved package of measures' in a final attempt to get the Brexit divorce deal through parliament before she leaves office.
The winner of a leadership contest to succeed her will automatically become prime minister and will take control of the Brexit process, which has plunged Britain into its worst political crisis since World War Two.
"When the Withdrawal Agreement Bill comes before MPs, it will represent a new, bold offer to MPs across the House of Commons, with an improved package of measures that I believe can win new support," she said.Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, however, said May had not moved away from any of the red lines that shaped her previous attempt.
International Development Secretary Rory Stewart said on the same programme on Sunday the Conservative and Labour positions were close - only"about half an inch apart" - in areas such as workers' rights, the environment and the future trading relationship.
