    AFAIK Extension is covered by the Lisbon agreement, what’s not covered is unilateral withdrawal from Article 50

    Lack of a Eugenics policy mid 20th century and in fact the complete opposite: the rise of a cretin-breeding welfare state.

    Anyone who thinks the UK will simply crash out with no deal is in cuckoo land, there' s a maximum of 100 MPs in parliament for no deal. The fact that the bill won't pass doesn't mean there won't be a second bill, probably extending article 50.

    Extending Article 50 would require agreement from all EU members

    It's academic, as a member of the EU you can shape these things, the UK will simply become an impotent football. Corbyn will ensure vassal status.
