Sadly, this is the consequence of us being nine days away from Brexit day. That is not a situation that any of us wanted to be in�to have the clock run down this far�with no agreement in place. The Prime Minister did not put any withdrawal agreement to Parliament until January, and it has been put back several times since then, so we have not had a clear plan. That is the situation we are in.
