Further comments by UK Brexit secretary Stephen Barclay

When asked if he could deny the earlier report by The Telegraph on delaying Brexit, he says "yes". I wouldn't take his word for it as you know, politicians...

It's better to just go about it more realistically and logically. Should May either postpone the meaningful vote next week or fail to gather enough support on that, delaying the Brexit date surely looks to be a plausible eventuality.
