Brexit Negotiations Collapse?: What Happens Now - Brexit Explained.

The video discusses the current state of Brexit negotiations, highlighting the improbability of reaching a deal before the deadline due to disagreements over Northern Ireland. Johnson's new proposal, which replaces the backstop with two borders, has not been well-received by EU leaders. Controversies have arisen from leaked calls between Johnson and Merkel, leading to a blame game between the UK and EU. With only 21 days left, an extension seems inevitable, though Johnson insists on leaving by October 31st. The Benn Act legally requires an extension request if no deal is reached, but Johnson may attempt to circumvent it. Possible outcomes include a deal, an extension, or leaving without a deal.
