With the deadline for Britain to leave the European Union looming, what happens next? First, May is meeting with members of Parliament to figure out what a new deal could entail. But any agreement would have to be approved by European leaders who have said they're unlikely to make any new concessions to Brits. -We must protect the single market, its coherence, and we reaffirmed our desire not to give any ground on this plan. -If it gets EU approval, any deal would face another vote in Parliament. What happens if May can't construct a new agreement? Well, she could try to get European leaders to extend Article 50, the measure that set the March 29th deadline two years ago. This seems like the most-likely scenario. Or she could put Brexit to a second vote in Britain. But this would be expected to take at least 21 weeks and it's something May has said she won't do. -I say to the honorable gentleman, once again, a vote was taken in 2016 and I believe it is incumbent on this Parliament to deliver on that vote. -If both of those options are off the table, Britain could leave Europe without a deal and economists predict it could be quite painful. Brits would likely encounter empty grocery stores, tariffs on trade, and restrictions at European borders. There's particular concern at the area dividing Ireland, which will remain in the European Union, and Northern Ireland, which will leave as part of the United Kingdom. The peace agreement between the two is only 20 years old and there are fears that a hard border could re-ignite tensions there. Some in Britain are pushing May to go that route anyway, while others have urged May to guarantee there won't be a no-deal Brexit.
