Leadsom spoke to BBC
Commons leader Andrea Leadsome said the EU may be prepared to grant the UK a "couple of extra weeks" to finalize preparations for Brexit.
This could happen if a deal has been reached, but more time is needed for parliament to approve its Brexit legislation.
We need a deal first.
This isn't a market mover but it offers some insight into the thinking of Conservative leaders, who are increasingly optimistic they can push through a deal.
