I think their primary objective is to get May’s deal to pass. However their secondary objective is clearly to get Brexit over with. All this talk of lengthy extensions is absurd. It isn’t going to happen. The EU wants this over and done with and over the last 36 hours they really couldn’t have been any clearer.

Whether or not the WA is debated, and passed, next week now depends on whether remainer MPs still want to believe they are being bluffed. If they think the threat of No Deal occurring next week is real, they will either support the WA or abstain. If they think it’s a bluff they will vote it down again. If they do that, I am convinced they will bring about No Deal and I further believe that this will be weaponised against them come the next election. Interesting times ahead.
