British PM May in Brexit battle to overturn House of Lords amendments
London
BRITISH Prime Minister Theresa May on Monday will attempt to quell a rebellion in her ruling Conservative Party as she tries to win the power to trigger Brexit.
The House of Commons is set to debate and vote over whether to accept amendments attached by the unelected House of Lords to the draft law granting Ms May the authority to file for divorce from the European Union. Those tweaks would protect the rights of EU nationals already living in the UK, and guarantee legislators a binding say on the ultimate outcome of the talks.
