(Reuters) - The Sunday Times has reported that the European Union will delay Brexit until February 2020 if Prime Minister Boris Johnson is unable to get his deal past parliament this week.

 

The delay would be "fungible", meaning that Britain could leave earlier, on Nov. 1 or 15, December or January, if his deal is ratified before the extension ends, the newspaper said, citing diplomatic sources.

 

No decision will be taken until EU governments have the chance to assess the chances of the withdrawal treaty getting through parliament before Tuesday this week, the newspaper added.

 

EU diplomats and officials told Reuters on Sunday that, depending on the next developments in London, extension options range from just an additional month until the end of November to half a year or longer.

Boris has not won a thing, i believe he lost all votes ever. 

 

They need a new referendum (binding this time) with more options to get out of this mess. But I bet the Brexiteers would not like that.

Don't care anymore, took the plunge and transferred money over, and have a steady pension income, so whichever way it goes I win/lose. I'm now looking at a 2 year window for them to sort this mess out. I must say, it's been an eye-opener to me, like, the way politics works.

Long enough to hold a referendum and get this madness reversed.

The people will not be fooled this time.

No. Long enough to hold an election and let the people decide who they want in Parliament.

The EU have, of course, decided to just ignore Boris's juvenile letter writing. The adults in the room.

Thankfully there are only 10 days to go.

Any trade arrangements after that are unlikely to take longer than the three and a half years wasted to date despite some of the gloom-merchant predictions in this thread.

 

IMO full umbilical severance is the best possible outcome for UK no matter how painful the short term effect might be.

‘Scum’, ‘Cowards’?
 
 

What dont you get about it ! Cowards for not supporting a GE now because they only want to face electorate after Pushing another ref to reverse the one they didn’t like ! They have no desire to see a deal with EU and haven’t the guts to say so ! So that’s where “scum “ comes in !

The vast majority of them were elected on manifestos to respect the result of the referendum. Now elected, they have reneged on that promise and are doing their best to overturn the result. Some are even secretly plotting with the EU to achieve this.

 

They know how unpopular this is therefore they are refusing a General Election and trying to reverse Brexit before the electorate can deselect them.

 

I hope that clarifies why some people are extremely angry.

Thanks to secret agent Jonny F English who infiltrated the traitors, it is not a secret any longer.

Liked Rowan but disliked this movie.

What's the point, if the result was the same as 2016, Gina Miller and her ilk will still not be happy and continue their childish games ruining the economy

I fully expect a future Govt after a landslide victory to conduct route and branch reforms in Parliament, Judiciary, Electoral Commission to restore our rights under the once respected 1688 bill of rights that has been steadily eroded since that grinning imbecile Bliar was PM.

Thanks for the correction.

 

2022, ever more time for the electorate to understand who and what Johnson is.

 

And if Johnson some how gets his ‘No Deal Brexit’, even more time for the electorate to see the consequences of his attack on the British economy.
