Brexit D Day - 17 October
EU officials are considering whether to extend the October summit of EU leaders by a day. I'm hearing it could start on the afternoon of Wednesday 17th. EUCO President Donald Tusk has previously described it as "a moment of truth" for the Brexit process.

No Way Out of Brexit Under Labour
BREAKING: John McDonnell says Labour would only offer people Deal or No Deal in a referendum. NO option to stay in EU. Which completely negates the aims of a referendum as dreamt up by @peoplesvote_hq. Massively significant - no way out of Brexit under Labour. #lab18

Vince Cable's Erotic Spasm
When we got this speech under embargo yesterday we couldn’t quite believe they had *actually* gone for this choice of words but, yes, Vince Cable is going to talk about an “erotic spasm” later today. https://t.co/osDJOEDAhs— Jess Brammar (@jessbrammar) September 18, 2018

IMF Pushing For Brexit Deal
UK faces 'significantly worse' outlook if no Brexit deal: IMF https://t.co/Dg6f9KQV6I— Reuters Top News (@Reuters) September 17, 2018
IMF forecasts are invariably wrong, and given that this particular "forecast" relates to Brexit (which the IMF doesn't approve of) it should be taken with a pinch of salt!

Duncan Weldon Nails It!
Shape of the final Brexit deal can be settled later.
— Duncan Weldon (@DuncanWeldon) September 10, 2018
Real priority now for both sides is ensuring a smooth transition, avoiding the cliff edge.
EU knows this and it knows the risks of a cliff edge rise if May loses power.
So expect them to act on this knowledge.

Barnier Over-egged His Pudding
Labour MP Stephen Kinnock attributed the remarks - which he said were in French - to Michel Barnier after a meeting in Brussels.
However, EU Commission spokesman Margaritis Schinas urged journalists to wait for a transcript to be published. The Chequers plan contains some "positive elements", he added.
Clearly the EU is now backtracking on what Barnier undoubtedly said, and will be attempting to rein him in.
