The White House is urging Britain and the European Union to be "flexible" as they negotiate their breakup. White House spokesman Eric Schultz says the U.S. is monitoring economic developments after Britain's High Court ruled that the government needs a vote in Parliament to trigger EU exit talks. Miller hopes the government will chose not to appeal the High Court ruling Thursday. The British government says it is disappointed by a High Court ruling against its plans to start EU exit talks. It centers on whether Prime Minister Theresa May can start negotiating Britain's exit from the EU without a vote in the House of Commons.
