What happens next for Brexit?



Britain is set to be pushed into a year-long delay to Brexit tonight after Theresa May effectively axed the prospect of No Deal on Friday. The Prime Minister’s hopes of a short extension that expires in June appear to be doomed as she prepares to fly to Brussels following PMQs today. Views among EU leaders vary – but the expiry of Article 50 looks likely to be shifted to at least the end of this year. Mrs May could get the option to break the extension early if her deal finally passes Parliament – but EU Council President Donald Tusk has gone public with warnings there is ‘little reason’ to believe it will ever happen. French President Emmanuel Macron has taken the most hardline stance, insisting Britain must be tied into strict rules to stop it misbehaving during any new delay. He is highly unlikely to actually veto the delay, however. At the last summit three weeks ago the EU leaders debated in private for almost six hours. A similar row this time would mean Britain’s fate being decided at around midnight tonight. Whatever happens, the PM must return to the Commons tomorrow to explain to MPs when and if Brexit will ever happen.
