Re: Brexit Development(s) Discussion

Makes sense, there's not much you can get done between now and January if you have an election in late November.

EU may offer to extend deadline for Brexit deal to June
The European Union is poised to extend Brexit talks into as late as next summer after the European council and commission presidents dismissed Boris Johnson’s strategy as a “blame game”.
A “range of dates” will now be in play at the meeting of European leaders next week but sources suggested the natural cut-off date would be June.

Is our current position anywhere near that ??? I don’t believe so

Also the EU et all would have to agree to the use of Article 24
Exactly and I'm sure we've tried to help Old Boy understand this point before.

No EU country will weaken the union by voting against an extension. It's in no member country's interests.
