Theresa May visits Brussels today but no-one (on either side) expects she will come away from her trip with a single substantive concession to advance the Brexit debate. With just 50 days until Brexit, you might expect that both sides would be going at negotiations hammer and tongs to get a deal, but the reality is that Brexit has now reached a political impasse. This is no longer about technical negotiations (we had two solid years of those) but about the belief on both sides that the other is failing to confront the hard political choices that the reality of Brexit presents. From a British perspective, that means the EU needs to recognise that the current deal will not go through Parliament.
