Ms. May said the core question is how to do Brexit, and an effort by several MPs to postpone it is not the answer. She told Parliament that trying to extend the Brexit deadline based on Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty is in vain as the UK eventually will have to make a decision: Brexit with a deal, Brexit without a deal, and no-Brexit .

Ms. May’s statement came after the Labour Party said it may support MP Yvette Cooper’s proposal to postpone the Brexit deadline if a new Brexit deal is not reached.
