There's no legal possibility of an extension to the transition period as such, without an amendment to the withdrawal agreement or something in a future relationship treaty.

When Cummings went on his Barnard Castle trip, Borisbots claimed that he had to be saved because only he could stop the UK agreeing to an extension to transition. This sounds like a rehash of that argument, although it's now legally weak as the extension deadline has passed.
And as Dom (no, not that one) points out, the reference to "Remainers" is gratuitous gibberish

Remember that Cummings spewed forth a lot of legal rubbish about the Benn Act. Part of his MO is to circulate nonsense for the purpose of distraction.
