Boris Johnson plans to block extension of Brexit transition beyond 2020

British PM Boris Johnson will reportedly prevent any extension of the Brexit transition period beyond 2020 and push for the EU to give him a free trade deal in less than 11 months. Johnson is working on amending the withdrawal agreement bill so that the transition, also known as the implementation period, must end on 31 December 2020 and there will be no request to the EU for a further extension.
