Well nothing to scrutinise, so may as well jog off home . . only slightly different to last week really, but they can legally leave early

Losing a few hours here and there isn't the same as losing five weeks.

It was all bull they lied to the courts for political reasons.

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.

Once again, you are confusing facts (which I have posted) with opinion (which I haven't).
I would recommend you don't try this approach with gravity by jumping out of a 4th floor window, as taking gravity as an opinion and deciiding later if it has any merit may result in sub-optimal results...

Talking of sub optimal results, I gather things aren't going too well across the channel

I heard a theory to explain his double speak on the matter that he could have been tipped the wink by one of the EU27 that they were planning to veto the extension if asked for.
Alternatively I suppose he could just go to Brussels and make such a nuisance of himself Farage style that they finally decide to get rid. He'd do quite a good job at that.
On the other hand it could merely be the usual Bullingdon bluff and bluster.

It's possible that the surrender bill if full of loopholes, it was done in a hurry.

Well, if you watched the House of Commons last night, you would see that the opposition parties could do with a bit of calming down, too! Their self righteous indignation is sickening - they think they are the only ones who have the right to be annoyed. What they seem not to understand is that the public is not on their side.
Incidentally, you may regard it as a technicality, but no law was broken. The judges stated that what Boris did was unlawful, not illegal. Therefore, no criminal offence was committed.

Some of the public are on the Government's side, some on the Opposition's.
We need a Prime Minister who can bring the country together not divide it. Our country's enemies must be licking their lips at the divisions the country is in and our Prime Minister's inability to heal them.

Wrong again. Constitutional law was broken, not criminal. So yes, he did break the law. Even the brexiteers flagship red top admits to this.
Since you want to take this to a technical level

None of the opposition party leaders [or their politics] fit the bill.

I watched. It's the job of the opposition to be divisive and reactionary. It's the job of Government to lead, despite the opposition.
