Recent political events, including the prorogation of parliament, new legislation aimed at preventing a no deal and the prospect of a snap General Election have all contributed to further uncertainty about Brexit.
The Prime Minister is now required by law to request a further delay to the UK’s departure if he is unable to reach a new withdrawal agreement with the EU. The political outlook remains highly unpredictable and the terms of an EU departure are unknown.
