UK PM May to resume Brexit talks with EU's Juncker next week

British Prime Minister Theresa May is to hold Brexit talks with European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker next week, her office said on Saturday, following this week's symbolic defeat in parliament which was widely interpreted as undermining her negotiating strength with the EU.

Her office did not give a date for the talks. It said May had also written to all her Conservative lawmakers urging them to overcome their differences over leaving the EU in the national interest.
