He will when (not if) he accepts the extension until January, which he is legally compelled to do once it is offered.

As soon as he does, Corbyn has zero reason to refuse a GE and it happens.

Johnson will wipe the floor with Corbyn in a GE but we'll still get a hung parliament in all likelihood with the Tories as the biggest party.

It then comes down to pure numbers - if Johnson has enough and parliament can't "Benn Act" him in January, we'll leave with a deal or no deal. If he can't, there's only one option left - a second referendum.
Where is Noel Edmonds when you need him? :cool: Bit of levity there but seriously you may well be correct.
 
Oh Johnson wanted no deal. Absolutely. The deal he spun together at the last minute was the result of the Benn Act, which put him in a horrible position.

He still wants it. The only way Johnson leaves on a deal is if no deal is a dead option, and parliament has done its' job and stopped that.

I don't believe that for one minute. I don't believe very much he says.

Do or die. Dead in a ditch etc has turned to we'll get our deal through at some point. He was never serious and it's pure hysteria to suggest he was. This was all about playing to the tory gallery and trying nullify farage in the next election. It's probably worked tbh.
 
This WAB would have been destroyed this time too once the amendments were voted on. I think Johnson knows that too which is why he is pulling it now before he loses control of it. It could very easily end up as a Labour Brexit with customs union etc.

What happens next is very much in the hands of the EU. Personally I can't see them agreeing to an extension without strict conditions attached. So a November election it is then.

Don't be surprised if you see a pre election pact between the Tories and BP.


Let’s hope so, Barney.

The Tories will be even more toxic if they throw their lot in with that crowd.
