Theresa May asks ministers to hold nerve on Brexit

British Prime Minister Theresa May told her ministers on Monday that they must hold their nerve in an impasse with the European Union over Brexit, her office said after a cabinet meeting.

May said her plan was the only viable one on the table and that she remained confident of securing a deal with the EU, her office said in a statement.

"At the same time, the government will continue to sensibly plan for no deal," the statement quoted her as saying.
