They're saying on the news that the EU will extend to 23 May, and only if May's proposal is adopted by Parliament. (Or, that's what the Daughter says the French are saying - she's watching.)
Oooo. So, will the MPs who voted against May's proposal rather be responsible for the cliff, or not, now?
And, jeex, this was just the leaving part, and supposed to be the
easy bit of the whole process! I can see several doctoral dissertations in all this.

No Brexit delay without credible strategy: French FM
France will veto Britain's request to delay Brexit beyond March 29, unless Theresa May can demonstrate she has a credible plan to get her deal through parliament, according to French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian. “In a situation where Mrs. May would not be able to present to the European Council sufficient guarantees about the credibility of her strategy, this would lead to the extension request being turned down and to a no-deal exit,” Le Drian told France's parliament Wednesday.
“We want to send the British a simple and clear message -- and Theresa May has said this in the past -- there are only two options re leaving the European Union: ratify the deal or leave without an agreement,” Le Drian added.
