The UK has asked for a Brexit extension to June 30. It's likely that the EU will propose a longer process instead:
UK Prime Minister Theresa May has written to European Council President Donald Tusk requesting another, short extension of the bedeviled process.May said she wanted an extension to June 30 -- a date rejected by the European Union when the UK last sought a delay -- to give more time for cross-party negotiations over the political impasse in London.It's likely that the EU will propose a longer process instead.
Those rumbles are likely to come from the French, who have previously opposed a long extension without a clear roadmap from the UK.In any event, the UK must start preparing for elections to the European Parliament, which begin on May 23. May acknowledged as much in her letter, writing that the UK government"accepts the European Council's view" that it would be under a"legal obligation" to hold European Parliament elections.
