Theresa May wants to see Brexit bill approved without changes
Theresa May
London - Arab Today
Prime Minister Theresa May wants to see legislation giving her the right to trigger talks for Britain to leave the European Union approved by parliament's upper house without any changes, her spokesman said on Wednesday.
May's Brexit plan is facing its first major setback, with the House of Lords set to vote later on Wednesday in favour of forcing her to guarantee the future rights of EU nationals living in Britain.
"We would hope to see the bill progress unamended," May's spokesman told reporters.
The government has said it wants to guarantee conditions for EU nationals, but says it will only do so when all other member states agree to a reciprocal arrangement for Britons living abroad.
"The prime minister has been clear on many occasions that it is an important area for us and it is one that she would hope to see dealt with as a priority once the negotiations get underway," he said.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
