Theresa May has made it abundantly clear that if Parliament rejects the deal, then there is no deal. It really is as simple as that.

There will not be an election and there will not be a second referendum.

On that basis, I should think Parliament will vote for the deal as most MPs do not want to fall back on WTO rules. For many, it will be Hobson's choice, which is why I am confident that the Parliament will vote for the Chequers deal.

Whether the British public will be happy with that is a different question.
