Crunch time is coming for British politicians and European leaders, who are scrambling to find a way to way to make the Brexit process work.
without an agreement would be damaging for the EU and disastrous for the U.K. It could lead to tariffs on trade between Britain and the EU, as well as customs checks that could cause gridlock at ports and shortages of essential goods.
Few are holding out hope for this outcome, in part because it would probably require May to dramatically alter some of her long-held positions and embrace a much softer version of Brexit. Indeed, Labour’s Brexit spokesman, Keir Starmer, said Friday after three days of talks that the government is not showing any willingness to change its approach and find common ground.
This approach has been dubbed the “flextension” in yet another addition to the crowded and sometimes confusingof Brexit-related terms. Tusk hopes to get this option approved at an EU summit on Wednesday. A year-long extension might well please the many Britons who hope Brexit never takes place, and it is likely to enrage Brexit-backers who fear their victory in the 2016 referendum is being hollowed out by endless slowdowns and concessions.Parliament already has narrowly rejected a proposal for a new referendum on whether to leave the EU, and the government has ruled out holding another plebiscite, saying voters in 2016 made their decision to leave.
