And it has been. Whether we reach an agreement by December this year or next is completely incidental. Any agreement to extend would be entirely in our control, and in our own interest.

I don't think six months ago anyone would have foresaw current events. We don't know where we will be in six months. Even the most ardent anti-Tory would have to accept it's a reasonable step.

Neither us, or the EU, are interested in these discussions right now. Bigger fish to fry
