LONDON - Britain’s parliament approved legislation on Monday that gives lawmakers the power to scrutinize and even change Prime Minister Theresa May’s request that the European Union agree to delay Brexit until June 30.
But lawmakers want additional legal guarantees against a “no-deal” exit happening on April 12 - the current exit day - and have crafted a law forcing ministers to consult with parliament on Tuesday before May goes to Brussels. May is due to travel to Paris and Berlin on Tuesday to press her request for a short delay, before it is formally discussed by EU leaders at a special summit on Wednesday.
