Causing the UK to remain in the EU. | ||

Also nice of Boris to admit that they haven't bothered to look at the impact of any Brexit deal. Its basically looking like that they want to exit the European Union first then figure everything out later, including the whole deal with Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Union in general. Which is definitely the best way of going about your day to day life...how the Brexit process is occurring is the same as some guy quitting their job, telling their family to not worry about mortgage and how everything will be OK because they're British and British are hard working winners. You do have to wonder about the merits of the "democratic process" if this is the end result of it. | ||

The dance will continue. Boris saying he will not ask for a delay and claiming he is not required to do so. | ||

I suspect the EU will wait to see what happens next week when parliament is supposed to vote on laws to implement Boris's deal. If those all pass then the UK leaves with Boris's deal, no extension needed. If they fail I expect the opposition to address the EU to give an extension so they can hold elections, EU doesn't want a deal deal exit so they grant the extension, Vote of no confidence throws out Boris and the UK will have elections. | ||

The alternative is to grant an extension for an election which could lead to the UK remaining. 4-6 months of further uncertainty could be seen as preferable to the UK leaving with hard brexiteers at the helm. | ||

The EU can in theory wait until 22:30 on 31st October to give their answer on an extension. Forcing parliament to chose between this deal and a hard brexit isn't in the EU's interest when they would ideally want remain. And they could have, but refused to, do this for May's deal which was technically better from the EU's perspective. | ||

He's not pulling through on his lies, threats and tantrums. What a relief. | ||
