An extension will not get us any further. There has been quite sufficient time to get an agreement. The EU is just trying to wear us down and an extension will play into their hands. We're done with that game. We'll either get an agreement or we won't, but it would be amazing if the EU decided to shoot itself in the foot.

Of course, negotiations could be extended provided it did not prevent us from going it alone on the date already set. Perhaps we will get more reality into the situation negotiating as an independent country, underlining the fact that we no longer accept EU rules and asserting they will get no fishing rights whatsoever until a deal is done, etc, etc.
