Fat chance

What, has John Bercow died?

No, you say?

Ah.

Too bad for Mrs. May.

E.U. Officials Agree to Brexit Delay, but With Conditions

Top officials of the European Union tossed Prime Minister Theresa May a life rope on Wednesday, saying they would allow Britain to push back its departure date from the bloc, but only if Parliament endorsed her withdrawal plan.

Lawmakers have twice already rejected Mrs. May’s plan emphatically, but in the unlikely event they changed their minds, Britain would still need an extension. 

The March 29 deadline is so near, there is no way lawmakers can pass the supporting legislation needed to put any withdrawal plan into effect.

So, a no deal Brexit on the 29th of this month, then.
