She reiterated her view that the best way forward was to leave with a deal but said it was now for her successor to “find a way forward to get a consensus.”

Expressing her regret as she arrived in Brussels for a formal dinner with fellow EU leaders to discuss the next EU Commission, Mrs May said: “ I have been to something like 15 council meetings or more and have been working hard to very hard.

“It is a matter of great regret to me that I haven’t been able to deliver Brexit but that matter of course is for my successor. They will have to find a way of addressing very strongly held views on all sides.”
