UK Chancellor of Exchequer Philip Hammond said new referendum was “a proposition that could and, on all the evidence, is very likely to be put to parliament at some stage”.
But any new referendum could probably take six months to organize. Thence, time would be tight even though Brexit date is delayed to October 31.
Also, Hammond added: “The government’s position has not changed. The government is opposed to a confirmatory referendum and therefore we would not be supporting it.”
