"European Parliament threatens to veto Theresa May’s new Brexit plan over Irish border"
The intervention means there is likely to be further trouble ahead on the Ireland issue – with the risk that the whole deal could be sunk over it. UK officials in Brussels say they have now have no plans to bring forward new proposals on the border, having proposed a solution to it last month.

Spoilsports!

Edited to add -

frog222 - put the kettle on - you could be in for a treat! (Well, if you weren't in France. But it must, nevertheless, be a worry.)
Was in that London today and saw two big helicopters. Guess it must have been the Donald on his visit to see his fans in the United Kingdom of Great Brexit.

Great photo on the home page of the G: May pouting prettily at a pleased-with-himself-looking Trump while May's hubbie looks mildly put out.

The British Prime Minister has outlined her policy on Brexit. The US president has outlined his policy on Brexit. Tonight, the Brexiteers are telling the British people they must side with the US president. In the name of sovereignty.

I know. Let's cut all ties with the EU in order to please Donald Trump - so that we can look surprised when he offers us a trade deal on his terms and all that that would entail. I can't see any downside to that at all.

"With criticism of May's Brexit, Trump detonates a diplomatic grenade"
May, meanwhile, standing before the media and live TV cameras, will face calls to emulate Hugh Grant’s prime minister in the 2003 film Love Actually, who informs the American president: “A friend who bullies us is no longer a friend. And since bullies only respond to strength, from now onward I will be prepared to be much stronger.”

Failing that, as Trump goes on to take tea with the Queen, the prime minister could always join the demonstrations on the streets of London. It seems she has nothing to lose.
