The discount carrier said its preparations for the UK-EU divorce were on track, but economic uncertainty and confusion over Brexit were reducing demand for flights in the ultra-competitive market. It warned that the weakness would continue in the second half of its financial year to September 30.  "We are seeing softness in both the United Kingdom and Europe, which we believe comes from macroeconomic uncertainty and many unanswered questions surrounding Brexit which are together driving weaker customer demand," CEO Johan Lundgren said in a statement.

He said that after the Conservative Party lost their majority it was clear that "the parliamentary arithmetic would mean this would inevitably be a softer type of Brexit.” 24 min agoPrep for no-deal, says Irish deputy premier As lawmakers in Westminster once again return to the Commons to try to find a solution to the Brexit impasse, Ireland's deputy premier Simon Coveney has urged businesses in Ireland to focus on contingency plans for a no-deal Brexit. 27 min agoMay’s deal is best option, but I “have no fear” of no-deal – UK Treasury Sec From CNN’s Hilary McGann in London Chief Secretary to the Treasury Elizabeth Truss arrives at the Houses of Parliament on Thursday.

Asked about speculation over who the next Conservative Party Leader might be after Theresa May steps down, Truss responded “we spend far too much time talking about who should be leaders, and not enough time on the ideas.” 34 min agoAnalysis: Brexiteers cry betrayal but they're the ones to blame for this mess From Jane Merrick, for CNN Pro-Brexit demonstrators hold up placards in central London on Friday after MPs rejected May's Withdrawal Agreement for a third time. Pro-Brexit demonstrators hold up placards in central London on Friday after MPs rejected May's Withdrawal Agreement for a third time.Tolga Akmen/AFP/Getty Images In 11 days, unless something changes this week, the UK will leave the European Union without a deal. Over the next few days, politicians from Prime Minister Theresa May on down will scramble to get a deal through -- either the one the PM has spent months trying to get approved by the House of Commons, only for it to be defeated three times, or a softer Brexit plan that is picking up support among lawmakers of all parties. There is a strong chance that Parliament could vote for a softer Brexit, perhaps involving Britain staying in the EU single market; but there is equally a strong chance of a no deal. With such high stakes, there are now deep concerns among Brexiteer lawmakers that their prize of leaving the EU might be slipping away. And sure enough, Brexiteers are planning to blame everyone but themselves. Holding out for a harder Brexit, or indeed a no deal, instead of voting for the Brexit deal on offer, has led to the possibility that the UK's exit from Europe may not happen at all. They have already lost the original date of Brexit -- March 29 -- but now a soft Brexit (which would still be a battle to implement) is more likely to gain support in the Commons than any other. Later Monday, MPs will vote on a range of options to try to find out which Brexit outcome has the most support.

Theresa May leaves church in her constituency on Sunday.Jack Taylor/AFP/Getty Images Just in case your head wasn't buried in political gossip all weekend, here's what might have passed you by: Theresa May is reportedly planning to hold a fourth vote on her Brexit deal. May's Withdrawal Agreement has already been crushed three times, but each defeat has been tighter than the last. She will still need to flip some hardline Conservative backbenchers and the 10 DUP lawmakers who prop up her minority government if she wants to get her plan over the line. Is a general election on the horizon? The Prime Minister told MPs after they defeated her deal for a third time on Friday that she fears "we are reaching the limits of this process in this House." That was taken by many as a hint that, should her deal fail again, she will call the second snap election in two years. Pro-Brexit protesters take over Westminster: A rally in support of Brexit attracted thousands on Friday, amid a heavy police presence in the UK capital. Figures including Nigel Farage and far-right activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, also known as Tommy Robinson, spoke to enthusiastic crowds -- before some protesters turned on journalists.

But after nearly three years of infighting, division and political paralysis, the deadlock over Brexit rumbles on. This week is another crucial one in the process. With rumors of a looming general election, the prospect of yet another meaningful vote, and a series of indicative ballots in the House of Commons, things might be a lot clearer in a few days' time. Then again -- they might not. Lawmakers will get the first opportunity to negotiate a way out of Britain's deepening political crisis.Today they'll hold a second round of indicative votes, hoping to coalesce behind a Brexit plan that could rival Theresa May's and force the PM into a compromise. Options that MPs could vote on will likely include a Customs Union plan and a second referendum -- and while the ballots are not legally binding, a united show of support would be difficult for Downing Street to ignore. Another round of indicative votes could take place on Wednesday, but reports suggest that Theresa May is also planning to find time this week for yet another so-called meaningful vote on her Withdrawal Agreement. That divorce deal has already failed in the Commons three times, by majorities of 230, 149 and 58. And in case that wasn't enough Westminster drama for one week, rumors also abound that May could call a snap general election to break the deadlock. The last time she tried that, in 2017, it backfired spectacularly -- with May losing her majority in Parliament.
