I believe he is legally bound to ask for the extension.

I believe every other country in the EU must agree to grant such an extension.

Granting an extension would be pointless unless the EU improves upon the May “deal”, which no sane UK MP would want to vote into law.

I have posted a proposed deal here and e-mailed it to two Conservative MPs.

He is not “legally “ bound but procedurally bound if he doesn’t get a deal. But there are always loopholes.

And what “improvements” do you want to see?

The UK should propose changes but it isn’t doing that.

He can meet the requirement of Parliament by asking for a one day extension. If the EU grants the extension, Britain leaves the EU on November 1. If the EU will not grant the extension, Britain leaves the EU October 31.

“The author is clueless about British law. Parliament can’t force a Prime Minister to do anything.”

“I believe he is legally bound to ask for the extension.”

OK, it can’t be both.....Who’s right?
