Brexit Minister: Increased risk UK parliament acts to frustrate Britain's EU exit

LONDON, Jan 13 - The risk of the British parliament seeking to frustrate Brexit has increased, Brexit minister Stephen Barclay said on Sunday.

The Sunday Times reported that rebel lawmakers were planning to wrest control of the legislative agenda away from Prime Minister Theresa May with a view to suspending or delaying Brexit, citing a senior government source.

"The risk of parliament acting in a way that frustrates what was the biggest vote in our history has increased," Barclay told BBC TV, adding that it was going to be "challenging" to get parliament to support May's deal in a vote on Tuesday.
