Labour will have to make up the numbers, else they'll be tarred with the blame by the press if no deal happens.
One thing that is clear is that this whole 'speaker' thing puts way too much power into one person's hands. That should change (but it almost certainly wont)
The next 10 days are going to be mental.
Lmao you don't want checks and balances against the power of number 10? So parliament can just be gridlocked forever with the same failed bill being brought out for a vote until they eventually agree. This is the democracy you want?
Labour and remain already won. Its over. Parliament had made clear they won't accept no deal.
Leavers only out was the May deal. They overplayed their position for marginal gains around the edges and have now lost everything.
Either we get a renegotiated super soft deal (Norway with extra steps) under a remainer Labour PM (Corbyn is close to falling on his sword anyway) which the people get to vote on at the end, or, we get a new referendum now which remain wins.
There is no outcome now without a second referendum. It is just timing now.
