  Brexit impasse: PM Johnson sends two letters to EU: one unsigned complying with law and a second, signed with his opinion

  

  Boris Johnson has sent a request to the EU for a delay to Brexit - but without his signature. The request was accompanied by a second letter, signed by Mr Johnson, saying he believes a delay would be a mistake. The PM was required by law to ask the EU for an extension to the 31 October deadline after losing a Commons vote.
