It is a mixed picture in asia at the moment. Moment. Lets get brexit done was the mantra of conservative leader and british Prime Minister Boris Johnson going into last weeks election, and many argue it was a key part of the partys winning campaign. However, now the talking is over, and the party has to deliver on that pledge. The brexit date when the uk leaves the European Union is set for 31 january 2020. Prime minister Boris Johnson agreed a deal with the eu, but it still needs to go through parliament. A vote could take place as soon as friday. Assuming its a yes, the next priority will be to negotiate a post brexit trade deal with the eu. Talks are expected to begin in march after all 27 eu nations agree to a formal negotiating mandate. These negotiations arguably need to produce a final agreement by the end ofjune. That is the point at which the uk has to decide whether or not to extend the transition period. But mrjohnson has ruled out any form of extension. If no trade deal has

But where there would be a signature normally there would be a signature normally there was a blank. Another letter makes it clear he thinks any extension would be damaging. Labour is not impressed. The low is very clear. He should have signed one letter in accordance with the law. He is being childlike. There are opposition plans again to try for a further referendum. We need an amendment to say that whatever deal gets through, it should be subject toa gets through, it should be subjec
