If there's one thing I'm certain of its that Boris won't calm down. His electoral future depends on stoking the fire of nationalism.
He needs to win over potential Brexit Party voters as he's deserted One Nation Conservatism. His best way to do this would be to leave on 31 October but he can't do that which is awkward. So his best bet is to stir things up and try and re-invent himself as an anti-Establishment hero.

Exactly. If they get something to scrutinise then doubtless they'll make up the hours. Just need BoJo to start negotiating in Brussels and not electioneering in the UK.
