Why not? The Government has essentially been paralysed for weeks now because any significant legislation would have seen abstainions and rebellions. No reason to think Remainers won't now do the same. Only requires a few.

The bigger question is there are enough MPs to write off their Parliamentary careers by brining down their own Government. The option would be there though if they felt the PM was only interested in stalling until October.

If that's the history they want then yes but I am not sure many of the contenders would be willing to have their only legacy as PM to be no deal Brexit and to cede power so easily.
