So, more time for Parliament, but with the agreement of a GE in December. Just in.

Has he said there will be an extension? The Guardian is reporting it as he will try to get a week for the deal to go through, and then have an election (so the election is contingent on the deal passing):

Boris Johnson has abandoned his “do or die” pledge to leave the EU by 31 October and will ask MPs to back a pre-Christmas general election next week.

The prime minister has written to Jeremy Corbyn, saying he will give parliament one last opportunity to scrutinise his withdrawal agreement bill and “get Brexit done”, by 6 November.

But he will also table a motion under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act next Monday, asking for an early general election. It would then be voted on on Tuesday.

Johnson had previously said he would wait for confirmation from the EU27 of the Brexit delay he reluctantly requested on Saturday, after MPs refused to fast-track his deal through parliament in time for the 31 October deadline.

In a BBC/Sky interview, Johnson said: “The way to get Brexit done is, I think to be reasonable with parliament and say if they genuinely want more time... they can have it but they have to agree to a general election on December 12th.”
 
I am not the one asking to leave the union because they deem themselves to be nationalists, they are separating themselves by definition as being different,
not my doing its there own.
If the UK removed or revised the outdated Barnet formula they would be in the crap pool......
Scotland in particular who gets more per head mneywise than the whole of the UK....
