JEREMY CORBYN and Theresa May will be in Brussels tomorrow for separate talks with EU chiefs after the Prime Minister’s plea to postpone Brexit to the end of June met a cool reception.

During Prime Minister’s Questions (PMQs) today, Ms May told MPs that she had written to EU officials to request that the date of Britain’s departure be put back from next Friday to June 30.

European Council president Donald Tusk responded by saying that a short extension of Britain’s membership would be “conditional” on Westminster MPs voting for her twice-rejected Brexit deal in the coming week.

France, Spain and Belgium are said to be ready to veto the extension request without evidence that Parliament is ready to accept Ms May’s deal.

Mr Corbyn said he would talk to EU officials about his party’s Brexit proposals and invited Ms May to discuss them ahead of the summit in a bid to break the Brexit deadlock. She rejected the proposal.

He also urged her to explain how the content of the Withdrawal Agreement would differ what has been already been rejected by MPs in two “meaningful votes,” but she refused to say.

This week, Commons Speaker John Bercow blocked Ms May’s deal from being put to a third vote unless it has been significantly amended, citing a parliamentary rule from 1604.

In the chamber, Mr Corbyn warned Ms May that her “concerted campaign of blackmail, bullying and bribery” has already failed to persuade MPs to back her agreement with the EU.

Voters should be given a chance to reject her Brexit deal and change the government, he added.

Ms May urged the Commons to support her deal by saying that it had “indulged itself on Europe for too long” and had spent too many days “contemplating its navel” – jibes which sparked uproar from MPs.

Noting that MPs have rejected calls for a second referendum, a no-deal Brexit and Labour’s proposals, but have voted for leaving the EU with a deal, she added: “It’s time this Parliament faced the consequences.”

Mr Corbyn said that 54 more MPs voted for Labour’s proposals than for her Withdrawal Agreement the second time it was rejected.

EU officials said there could instead be a “binary” choice of a short Article 50 extension to before May 23 to avoid Britain having to participate in European Parliament elections or a delay until at least the end of the year.

Other possible outcomes would include leaving without a deal on the legally enshrined Brexit date of March 29 or revoking Article 50 altogether, which would entail new primary legislation getting through the Commons.

Alex Gordon, convener of Lexit, the Left Leave coalition during the 2016 referendum campaign, told the Star that the likelihood of a no-deal Brexit is being “underestimated.”

He added: “Article 50 has been triggered and is a piece of actual law. In the event of a long extension, it would be a fair bet that pro-Leave votes would consolidate behind a Brexit party in European elections while Remain votes would split behind the other parties.

“The splits in the Tory Party would also not stand up to a long extension.

“Delays are a demonstration of the political crisis in the British ruling class that expose the rift between elected representatives and people in the country. Delays are an admission of failure.”
