(I think there is more than enough evidence, but NF can't "press charges" under the UK Law system).

He can certainly take a civil action for damages, and if the person is found guilty of assault in a criminal court where the burden of proof is much higher, then he will certainly lose any case brought against him in a civil court.

you're right it still won't get over the line.
The backstop is still there, so DUP wont vote for it, or many Tories because of that.
It's still Brexit so Lib-Dems wont vote for it, nor will SNP and Nor will the one Green.
Labour will be told not to vote for it, a handful still will but that's all.
There's no way enough Tories will vote for it.
It's dead, I don't know why she's bothering.
She should go, Tories need to get a Leaver in charge that can rip up the WA, go back to Brussels and get and get a deal that can get the support of parliament but I fear that is impossible.
The only Brexit can be delivered, if it is to be delivered is leave with no deal and negotiate our future relationship from outside the EU, and call everyones bluff on the N.I. issue I the process.
