They will, but it doesn’t need to take that long. They just need this bill to get royal assent, then they’re good to go. There’s really no point in waiting until Oct 31st is past, as if the Tories win the election after an extension is agreed, they could just cut it short and leave immediately anyway.

Isnt’t brilliant watching BoJo make himself look like a complete and utter dildo?
Thanks
now now, Steve. There's no need to call Rees-Mogg a cnut. I mean, I guess he is a cnut but you can't just call someone a cnut simply because he is a cnut.Jesus Christ, have they started cos-playing as their favourite Brexiteers over there or something? That article is pathetically sycophantic.
Sorry, mate - I couldn't spell 'cnut'.
Wow, well colour me wrong then. Bold strategy Comrade Corbyn, hope it pays off for ya.
How the feck do people look at the past few days and see Boris as some daring military strategist?
It's like banging your head on a brick wall, but you can't blame people, the BBC just said again today's vote outlawed no deal. No it didn't.
Anna Soubry comments on David Gauke's tweet:
I don't/can't watch BBC but get Sky News and it's the same - either they are deliberately misleading people or the journalists don't understand themselves - I actually think it's the latter.
Could be a bit of both
What evidence to the contrary? You’re talking out of your arse or just wumming.

Nothing as critical to the future of the country as this though.
Nobody has really talked about the possibility of the EU ruling out an extension. Macron was firmly against and compromised on an October deadline, would he be any more likely to approve one now?
The only reason I can I can of that he might change is that Germany has become increasingly vocal about the negative effects of Brexit on them. Is that even Macron's concern?

Corbyn looks more and more competent while BoJo looks to be impersonating Trump.
Anything happening tomorrow?
The leader of the pirates speaks:
Look Steve, we get it. "Rees-Mogg is a cnut". You don't have to keep going on about it!
Rees-Mogg is a cnut.
You can make it far far less likely by not letting Boris call a snap election until the Benn bill passes and gets Royal assent.
Down eight pints and saysentences...likethis...veryquickly.
Why do ordinary people vote for priviledged dickheads like Rees-Mogg and BoJo who don't even try hard to pretend they only want to look after the very top end of town? I just don't get it.
These cnuts hate us all and just want us to enrich them and their peers.

If I were Corbyn, I'd push for post October 17th election. ie: Make BJ go to October 17th EU Summit, where he has to play nice with EU PMs, and politely request an extension (something he's explicitly promised he'd never ever do), and then report back to parliament that UK will not be leaving on 31st October (something he's explicitly promised he'd never ever do). Both instances would lose him votes.
Those two bits of VDO would then provide Corbyn 'dynamite' material for a negative campaign against BJ proving him to be unreliable, not capable of delivering promises, and a liar
BJ vs Corbyn Election would be the UK's first ever 'presidential' style election, where the vote is really about the party leader, rather than the party manifesto, so will become the most savage character examination that we've ever seen in UK election history. I've no doubt both will tear lumps out of each other. I'm sure Corbyn can handle it, but I fear it may mentally destroy BJ.

Agreed, although the backstop will continue to prove a major talking point for Boris during any election debates. What you mention about the uncertainty regarding his own ability to stay cool under pressure here;
really highlights the uphill battle Boris faces provided that the right questions in the debate are asked. It reminds me of May, who somehow managed to live off of a "strong and stable" impression her marketing team had managed to pull off until she had to speak in front of the cameras and the electorate realised it was all false.
But I offer a counter claim to yours; Rees-Mogg is a cnut.
Even Johnson's tax cut for the well off as his first act after ending austerity hasn't deterred people. How much clearer can he make it?
What's the POV from the continent, Brussels and Berlin? This all seems like comedy that rivals Trump being elected in the U.S.
Been in meetings most of the day, Just catching up on stuff. Good to see BJ get a kicking off Clarke, was like seeing a little boy being berated by his uncle 
But have to say, this speech from Jess Phillips was the speech of the day for me. She has serious talent, and would make for an excellent Home Minister in a future Labour government.

A lad I work with just posted on twitter that the general election vote was a monumental victory for Boris...
It was and she would. The Momentum lot hate her though, so she might have a wait on her hands.

How many Raes-Moggs cnuts can a Raese-Mogg cnut count, if a Raes-Mogg cnut could count cnuts ?

Strange, I was able to read it earlier. Anyway...it quotes some financial experts who claim that Labour's aims of a soft Brexit (or no Brexit) now seem far more palatable than Johnson's daylight robbery.
