Tusk to ask EU to consider long extension
European Council President Donald Tusk has said he will appeal to EU leaders "to be open to a long extension" of the Brexit deadline, if the UK needs to rethink its strategy and get consensus.
His intervention came as UK MPs were set to vote on seeking to postpone the 29 March deadline to 30 June.
