Brexit: EU says short delay is possible if MPs back deal

 

The EU will only agree to a short delay to Brexit if MPs approve the current withdrawal agreement next week, Theresa May has been told.

 

EU Council President Donald Tusk said an extension, requested by the prime minister on Wednesday, was possible.

 

Mrs May has written to Mr Tusk requesting a Brexit delay to 30 June, saying she needed more time to get her deal agreed by MPs and passed into law.

 

The PM will making a statement from Downing Street at 20:15 GMT.

 

Mr Tusk said he believed all 27 other EU members, who must sign off on the extension, would agree but it depended on a "positive" vote in the House of Commons.

 

The length of any extension was open for discussion, he told reporters in Brussels.

 

The UK is due to leave the EU next Friday, on 29 March.

While a delay until 30 June "had its merits", Mr Tusk also suggested there were "political and legal" questions about delaying Brexit beyond 23 May - when European elections will be held.

 

While the current withdrawal agreement could not be changed, he suggested additional legal assurances the EU gave Mrs May in Strasbourg last week could be formalised to help get the backing of MPs.
