Don't understand they delaying of the vote. Supposedly it's because May wants to go back to the EU and get them to outline and explain the backstop properly. Now, for weeks she has known the backstop was the issue, so instead of waiting a day before the vote, why didn't she go back to the EU last week, or the week before?

Again despite not liking or agreeing with her I do think her put up or shut up comment to those opposing her is fair .

Being (very) generous, brinkmanship deals are a trademark of EU negotiators. So perhaps she has played it this way to maximise the chance of a last minute deal on the backstop.

Or not.

But its a narrative not without merit.

Did this the other week and..... you guessed it......he complained about it.

You can't win with him. Tagged if you do tagged if you don't.

End of.

Looks like it's this roydo. In her speech she mostly defended the deal she had now, said there has to be a backstop, and said she would ask the EU to give more assurances about the backstop, not about making any changes to it.

I must have misheard just now then. In questions, she said, to paraphrase, that EU leaders she had spoken to were open to stuff that would get her/their agreement through the HOC.

As the temporary and one way nature of the backstop is the major problem for her/them, perhaps she knows stuff that she cant be too open about.
