Brexit extension: Theresa May on meeting EU leaders

Ahead of meeting EU leaders, the UK PM was asked what she would do if they would only grant a long extension.

Theresa May is asking for Article 50 to be extended until 30 June, but there are reports the other 27 EU states will only offer a longer delay at Wednesday's summit in Brussels.

Mrs May told the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg that she was looking to leave the EU in a "smooth and orderly way", and that could still happen by 22 May.
