irish question. voting for this so there's no deal 01’ no voting for this so there's no deal or no time for other option mps about the right to demand that the government passed an extension so there is more time to scrutinise will be a huge historic moment. do you agree with that? an extension to article 50, for this lack of ability for anyone to get a majority of anything, perhaps there is consensus behind that on both sides of the house. having said that, i think they're pushing more and there being an extension of the timeline through january, acting general is considered the worst case scenario equally when you look at the agreement, all decided in the past few days and this is the way the eu behaved, they do take it right up to the wire and that is the way that brussels operates. and i think it's interesting that today is been a lot more positive, it is difference between the definition of a bespoke deal, obviously theresa may before she came up with the widely derided checkers plan was talking about bespoke rather than being in... that
