anyone know what the conclusion was with the recent fiqh conference in Canada the one which Mufti Rafi Usmani (db) also attended as that also discussed Esha and Fajr times? Would that have a bearing on UK?

Below is the statement by Mufti Ikram ul Haq who was there in the conference:
Assalam u Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah,
This month, I participated in the first Fiqh conference of North America in Toronto organized by Islamic foundation of Toronto. In which, we discussed many issues, including the timings calculation issue for Isha and Fajr prayers.
After a long discussion with numerous Ulama, including the Grand Mufti of Pakistan Mufti Muhammad Rafi Usmani (D.B) we concluded that during summer months the Isha can be prayed according to 15 degrees calculation method but Fajr should remain on 18 degrees throughout the year. This was agreed upon by almost all the Ulama.
Jazakallahu Khaira
