• How do you think that will happen exactly? This shower have an 80 seat majority and we're heading for no deal, there isn't enough sanity left in the Tory party to prevent it.

    Johnson won't get this bill through the HoL, and he can't present the same bill twice, but he can't back down because the fanatics in his party will revolt. He has an 80 seat majority, but only for doing things that the ERG wants - as soon as he tries to do something they don't then they will revolt en-masse.

    I think he's stuck. What does he do if the HoL refuse his bill and he's then got to wear the situation he's just told everyone is impossible? Plus the EU is going to put much stronger enforcement provisions in anything they agree to sign with the UK now.

  • HoL can only send the bill back a few times before the commons can force it through. The 80 seat majority means the HoL is toothless in the face of this government.
