On Friday the European council president, Donald Tusk, said in Bratislava that he believed following a meeting with the prime minister, Theresa May, that article 50 would probably be invoked in January or February 2017.
While expressing his “respect” for UK Prime Minister Theresa May, he pitied her predicament and dismissed the idea that the allure of Britain’s economy would make the European Union bend to its Brexit demands.

This has left British Prime Minister Theresa May stuck between a rock and a hard place. The aim is to present a list of concrete reforms at a summit in the Italian capital in late March that coincides with the 60th anniversary of the EU’s founding Rome Treaty. “Germany and France will very intensively play their part in the coming months in order to make all this a success”, Merkel at a press conference alongside Hollande. “There are more advantages than disadvantages in being a member state and we can achieve that”.
