An impromptu attent by Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May to push up the pace of Brexit discussions with the EU has failed to yield the desired results.

The British Prime Minister made an unscheduled visit to the head of the European Union and other senior EU chiefs where she had dinner and attempted to discuss how the EU Parliament could start discussing the fate of Britain after its divorce from the Union.

A joint statement from Juncker and the prime minister following their dinner gave no indication of any movement in the British government's favour, but instead included reference to the sequenced approach to the talks insisted upon by Brussels.

"The prime minister and the president of the European commission reviewed the progress made in the article 50 negotiations so far and agreed that these efforts should accelerate over the months to come. The working dinner took place in a constructive and friendly atmosphere."
