Brexit delayed: British PM May requests three-month extension

The opposition Labour Party said by choosing a short delay May was forcing British lawmakers to decide between accepting a deal they have already rejected or leaving without a deal.

“Any extension offered to the United Kingdom should either last until 23 May 2019 or should be significantly longer and require European elections,” the EU document said. The document also said the EU should offer Britain just one extension as multiple delays would leave the bloc in limbo. While the United Kingdom remains divided over Brexit, most agree it will shape the economic future of generations to come and, if it goes badly, could undermine the West and threaten London’s position as the dominant global financial capital.

She's only extending the time of uncertainty. This doesn't make sense. And, how democratic is it to ask for a 3rd vote on the same thing, while denying the British people to vote a 2nd time? She only keeps on banging her head against the wall.

Under current law, nodeal means no Brexit.

What can they resolve in 3 months that couldn't be resolved in 3 years

What brilliant strategy will she put into effect in 3 months, which failed in almost 3 years? pleasego

Idiot.

Traitor to democratic decision by delay!

Sigh, the content of this letter is not exactly hopeful and filled with concrete steps (except she will press her WA again to a vote). Whether this will be sufficient for the 27 as a 'valid reason' for an extension? (rhetoric question)

She’s on a road to nowhere. Sounds like a great title for a song, by the way.

Esperando o pronuciamento do ulissesneto...

PopeOnARope May is gonna kick that poor dead horse till there’s a second wake, then a third.......TeresaMay needs to take a lesson from Elsa and LetItGo. You failed. MoveOn. Stop wasting time and money, stop sowing chaos.

They will piss on the british voters, and brittish democrachy! Damn communists all of them!

Embarrassing and ridiculous get out on WTO then negotiate a free trade agreement theresa_may

Letter essentially says 'people are being mean to me so it's all their fault, can I have more time?'

Hello Reuters Top News Brecow is not being obstructive - it's just that he knows May can only get her deal through by browbeating and/or bribing the opposition - this is not a way to proceed, as those who framed the 1604 rule were well aware.
