Colkitto Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Boris says he "will not" carry out parliaments instructions for an extension. So back to the question I asked yesterday. What can be done? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 At the moment the deadline agreed by the EU is the 31st of October. If the law passed today means that the uk cannot leave with no deal and bojo has to seek an extension what happens if the EU refuses? Can't leave with no deal. Can't leave with may's deal ? Would this mean that the default position in the view of uk law would be revocation of article 50? The EU kick the uk out on October the 31st, then what is the position?If the EU say no to an extension then it's either no deal or cobble something together in Parliament that the EU will agree to.So, no deal or May's deal are the only options still available. The Eu may not accept a different proposal from the UK.We cant force the EU to let us extend A50. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 A way around it for Johnson would be for him to formally send the extension request while doing a deal with Orban or someone to block it. An extension requires unanimity from the 27. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extension requires unanimity from the 27. It’s been explained many times that whilst technically an extension could be vetoed, the 27 leaders will get together and discuss a unified position before the actual voting takes place. There’s no way that Hungary will piss off the rest of the EU by forcing through a no deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the populist bluster, Hungary is one of the biggest benefactors of EU funding, even more so when you take into account the preferential rates it gets from the European Investment Bank (EIB). After all it wasn't Hungary that 'wun the woar! Yours aDONis 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One region of Belgium held up the Canada trade deal for months. Edited September 7, 2019 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Orban will do whatever Merkel and Macron say.I suppose there has to be a first time, but some serious money has been speculated on a hard brexit, with political backing from across the pond where they see a united EU as a threat. Let's say if he or another leader says no they won't have any pension worries when they retire. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sooner we are out the better!!! Oops almost forgot Spain is more than ready to imprison senior politicians and it is /was not uncommon among the other EU member states. Be very careful Nicola not to piss people off. You already have one very senior party member in the mire . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
