Six and a half years after voting to leave the E.U., two years after it signed a post-Brexit trade deal with Brussels and one month after installing its fourth prime minister since the 2016 referendum, Britain is caught in yet another Brexit debate. https://nyti.ms/3i44eIO

As the U.K. completes its final Brexit stage, the rupture with the E.U. will be painful to both sides. But while Britain is closer to fracture, the bloc has in some ways been galvanized. https://nyti.ms/381LaTW

“If the U.K. still wants to leave the E.U. in an orderly manner, this agreement, this treaty, is and will be the only one,” Michel Barnier, the E.U. Brexit negotiator, said of Theresa May's plan. “If there is no deal, there is no transition.” https://nyti.ms/2Ue3l3B

Theresa May's hopes in Brussels rest on a paradox: If the E.U. accepts a "no deal" Brexit rather than renegotiate guarantees on Ireland's relationship with Northern Ireland, it risks creating the hard border those guarantees are designed to prevent. https://nyti.ms/2DGI60r

With hours remaining to save her job, Theresa May had one argument: Changing leaders so close to the March 29 deadline to leave the E.U. could open the door to something worse, a Labour government or a reversal of Brexit. https://nyti.ms/2RVZLWG

This week the European Union was supposed to be able to finally put the political psychodrama of Britain behind it. Instead, Brexit will hijack another E.U. summit meeting when Europe has other, more compelling problems. https://nyti.ms/2EoYDaN by @StevenErlanger
