Not much has happened over the Easter break in the UK

May Tusk

The government is continuing to hold talks with the Labour party but as it stands, they don't seem to be making any real progress with regards to breaking the current Brexit impasse. And it sure doesn't look like things can or will get any better from hereon. For there to be a compromise, either one of the parties will have to move their red lines and at this juncture, May's government looks to be the one that needs to do so or else she will face a barrage of calls for her to step down.

That brings us to the other development that we have seen, in that there are reports claiming that a top Tory lawmaker is looking to plan a move to oust May by the end of June if things are still going nowhere with regards to Brexit.

Do be reminded that May's position as leader of the Tory party cannot be challenged at the moment but the reports say that 1922 Committee chair, Graham Brady, may be in on this coup here to see that rule be changed.

Whatever the case is, we're no closer to solving the Brexit stalemate since the start of the year but the can has been kicked down the road until Halloween Day so we still have many more months of this malaise to look forward to.
