<p>UK Ministers have re-worked the Withdrawal Agreement Bill (WAB) – due to come before the House of Commons this week – to “legally prohibit” any further extension.</p>
<p>Under current plans, Mr Johnson intends to end Britain’s EU membership on January 31, with an implementation to run to the end of 2020 while the Government negotiates a free trade deal with Brussels.</p>
<p>However, key EU figures – including chief negotiator Michel Barnier – have expressed scepticism that a deal can be agreed in time, raising the fresh prospect of a no-deal break unless there is an extension.</p>
<p>A No 10 source said: <em>“Last week the public voted for a government that would get Brexit done and move this country forward – and that’s exactly what we intend to do starting this week.</em></p>
<p><em>“Our manifesto made clear that we will not extend the implementation period and the new Withdrawal Agreement Bill will legally prohibit Government agreeing to any extension.”</em></p>
