Surely Parliament can't vote against it now since it's clear this is the best we can get?

Very cynical Damien but probably true ! May and the EU are following a script, they should all join the actors union Equity !
Still should be enough to sway her fickle Brexit base. The papers that were fervently in favour of meaningful Brexit have now gone luke warm in the face of reality. Seems the tactic if it fails a vote in parliament to keep making them vote again with increasing dire warnings. Labour MPs will slowly come on board and the ERG will continue to disintegrate. Even the DUP might grudgingly abstain or vote for it, faced with the prospect of a Corbyn govt., as long as they've had a 'fight' and made some trouble.
It's a crap deal, we all know it, and it isn't really 'Brexit', but it's better than no deal. However it will be the end of May and probably the Govt., so look on the bright side
