With the Brexit progress all over the wires ahead of one week for departure date, The Daily Mail came up with the report that claims the UK PM Theresa May is poised to formally request a fresh delay to Brexit today to prevent Britain leaving the EU without a deal next week.
The report further said that the Prime Minister will write to EU Council President Donald Tusk to request an extension to Article 50 that will delay the UK’s departure beyond April 12, Government sources said.
Additionally, Mrs. May will seek a ‘termination clause’, which would allow the UK to leave on May 22 – the day before European elections – if a deal can be pushed through the UK Parliament. But if this fails, the delay is likely to extend until at least the end of the year.
