If Theresa May wanted to and took her party along with her, I'm sure she could. But why would she, having said all the things she has said about it?

If that's the basis on which some MPs vote the deal down because they really believe anything other than a no-deal Brexit will take place, that would be a hell of a gamble!

I know they have said that, Dave, but can you really see us avoiding our legal obligations? However, we could make them fight for it by itemising it all and then having it all scrutinised and debated. The EU needs this money now, for the current spending round. Any delay would be very difficult for them.
