A spokesman of UK Prime Minister Theresa May said that Manfred Weber, Leader of the European People’s Party in the European Parliament, welcomed May’s Brexit plan.
He said, “on Brexit, Weber recognized that the Chequers proposals were a step forward and stressed the priority the European Parliament placed on resolving questions relating to the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland, as well as on maintaining the integrity of the Single Market.”
And, “they also discussed the Future Framework and agreed that both the UK Parliament and European Parliament should be able to vote on a precise plan for the UK-EU relationship.”
