Even if Theresa May can't get a 3rd vote through parliament, can she still get an extension to the 29th March deadline even if she can't have a third vote?

That's why I can't understand members prattling about democracy, trust of the public etc influencing them. Public trust has gone, and re Brexit that's because we have been able to watch debates and follow 'progress' with reports from eu and people worldwide so we've seen the repititions and stalemate for two years. We are not concerned with embracement of UK, we value honesty and integrity rarely seen.

Not without the approval of the EU Parliament and they are sick and tired of this whole Brexit mess. They have too much other stuff to deal with and it only takes one out of the 27 EU countries to veto an extension.

Legally, the UK MUST leave on 29th March, with or without a deal.



NO DEAL is now the default position, because Mrs May will be prevented from a third vote because she has already had TWO bites of that cherry and they were both heavily defeated.

This is GOOD NEWS because we save £39billion and we can start from a position of strength and start trading globally for the first time in years.

No the EU will not give an extension. The EU has stated that the UK has to come-up with bloody good excuse if the leave period is to be extended beyond the leave date of 29 March.



Such an extension has to be verified by the EU parliament and this could be difficult because the EU parliament will soon close in preparation for the coming EU elections.



So brace yourselves for a crash-out.It should be very interesting.

After we crash-out we go over to WTO rules.

We will of course start trade negotiation with the EU and they will take some years to complete.



For a trade deal, the EU will want from us.



1. that we pay what we owe the EU. 2. that there is no boarder within Ireland.

3. That EU fishermen are allowed to fish in British waters. And that's only for starters.



Teresa May can of course at any-time up until the 29 March, revoke article 50.
Huh?

Yes, as long as the EU agrees to it. They won't want the mess that a no-deal exit will cause so they probably will agree, but I now think they'll insist that the extension is at least a year long so that the UK can actually come up with a viable plan.

It is conceivable her disgraceful tactic of running down the clock might finally have worked at the eleventh hour and she would have got her deal through if the alternative was no deal. She won't get that opportunity now but an extension to Article 50 would not have been required if she had suucceeded anyway.



An extension is now essential if the UK is not to crash out of the EU without a deal on the 29th. Brexiteers have welcomed John Bercow's ruling because of that possibility. Remainers have welcomed it because the EU will expect new proposals, a second referendum or 'Norway plus' for example, if they are to grant an extension.

You voted to exit, but votes don't count for the people.

she cant - the speaker has already ruled there cant be a 3rd vote unless there are substantial changes to the deal that has been rejected twice



she can "ask" for an extension as long as she wants- its the EU who decides if she is gonna get it

(she has asked for a 3 month extension)



NOW put yourself in EU shoes

what do you see?- there is only 1 deal on the table - After 4 months arguing the UK parliament has rejected it twice both by huge majorities (the 1st the largest a government has ever suffered - the 2nd the 4th largest)

Throught the last 6 months the PM has repeatedly said she will make sure the UK leaves 29th march

She then comes to you and asks for a 3 month extension so she can get the deal through parliament (the same deal thats been rejected twice)



Now you start thinking - how the f//k is she gonna get a deal through parliament in 3 months when parliament has already rejected it twice, looked it over the last 3 months-and aint gonna get a 3rd bite of the

So what difference is another 3 months delay gonna make?)

Yes she can negotiate a delay but the EU will likely want any delay to be a long one to avoid any other stumbling blocks as uncertainty in the markets is bad for everyone. Article 50 should never have been triggered without a plan. It seems the only thing that's certain now is that brexiters will blame the very people that warned them about this mess no matter what happens.

She can get an extension but only she gets the unanimous permission of the 27 EU gaulieters, If she does not then the default position is we leave on the 29th. That date was fixed by Act of Parliament so is carved in stone. The only way she can legally stop it is with another Act of Parliament. That means she has to get it through three Commons sessions, a Lords session, the Committee Stage and Royal ascent and all by a week of Friday. That is of course so long as the government obey the Law. Do I trust them? No.
