London, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 23rd Apr, 2019 ) :A new anti-Brexit political party launched its campaign Tuesday for next month's European elections as British lawmakers return from their Easter break as fresh bids to topple Prime Minister Theresa May mount.
The government and the main opposition Labour Party are also set to resume talks later Tuesday in an attempt to find agreement over Brexit after weeks of negotiations showed little signs of progress.
Britain is mired in a deep political crisis over its departure from the European Union, three years after a divisive referendum that voted to pull Britain out of the bloc after nearly half a century.
May was forced to ask EU leaders earlier this month to postpone Brexit for a second time -- from April 12 to October 31 -- after MPs repeatedly rejected the divorce deal she has struck with Brussels.
She is still hoping to persuade Labour to support the plan so the country can leave in time to avoid taking part in the European Parliament elections on May 23.
But with one month to go, few are expecting a consensus to emerge and Britain's political parties old and new are scrambling to organise for the upcoming polls.
