Brexit extension should not be wasted – Barnier

The European Union’s chief Brexit negotiator, Michel Barnier, has urged British political leaders to break the deadlock over the country’s departure from the bloc and said the week ahead would be “very important” in deciding the outcome.

He said the British government and opposition Labour Party are expected to present the results of talks on a compromise agreement in the coming days.

But he was adamant that the extended October 31 deadline can’t be amended.

“This delay must not be wasted by the British. They have to make use of it to find an agreement,” he told French broadcaster LCI on Sunday.
