Btw John, can I have 5th dibs on your Mrs if you get shot? I'd have said 1st dibs but I think a few others will have "been there" before me, she does have a bit of a "reputation"...Old Greg - In search of acceptance since Mar 2007. Hoping each leap will be his last.Comment

The 'can't stop no deal' BS is pure Cummings spin, trying to cow the rebels into thinking all is lost.
Also the hearing to stop prorogation has been fast-tracked to September 6th. A legal judgement is yet to go in Brexit's favour, and this is a hell of a lot more controversial than whether Parliament was needed to invoke article 50.Comment

It simply needs legislation, for which there are various triggers with the help of the Speaker (notably, SO24 at any time, NI report on 9 September).
Whether it will be stopped is a different matter. Seems unlikely, but definitely possible.
If it is stopped, there's a decent chance that Johnson would win an election. It's more likely than not that an election will happen before no deal, IMO, but no deal is more likely than a deal now, and remaining is highly unlikely (doesn't have the support of Korbyn, Red Len et al.).Comment

Boris is a bit worried by that nasty rebellious letter from 21 Tory MPs.
Parliamentary arithmetic doesn't look good.
