They are first and foremost Tories. Watch how many of the ex-Tories line back up with them on Saturday.

It's admirable, your unshakable believe in Johnson. You've not given him "technology" lessons previously have you?
Johnson could have come up with a deal which suited everyone and nobody would like it just out of principle.
Labour don't want any deal done. DUP obviously a sticking point here too. But my point is whatever happened they were gonna reject it.
I'm guessing - deal doesn't get through, Johnson asks for an extension. EU give 3-5 weeks.
General election called.
If Labour refuse again, then I don't see how anyone can defend them. That's their chance to do something and - if they really are gonna stick to what they've said and honour the referendum result or attempt to get a deal - then they would surely have to take up a gen election?

Welcome back Wayne
I don’t have an unshakable belief in Johnson. But I do think he will have done some form of a deal with the EU regarding any extension....it’s in both parties benefit to do so...

There was never a chance there would be a deal that at least 50% would think was useless. Trusting in politicians has it's drawbacks.

Of course they will. But not all will. Some have already joined the LibDems, others are retiring anyway and they'll relish handing Johnson a kick in the bollocks. Revenge is a dish best served cold.
If we add those (possibly 8 who'll vote against and a few more abstaining) to the DUP 10 who will oppose it, Johnson has a task and a half to get enough Labour MPs to back a terrible deal for their constituents like this...MPs who'll have the whip removed and replaced for the next election if they do, btw.
IMO this vote loses by about 10-15.
Best analogy of Boris deal I’ve seen
If the Benn Act didn't exist, this deal doesn't happen. He had absolutely no intention of getting a deal, but once he Theresa May'd himself and set ridiculous red lines, he's had no choice.
