Very high - Tories/DUP won't surrender and let Corbyn in No. 10, you're worried about a No deal, just think what it would like with his hard-left gang in there.

The EU have been quite crafty with their offer yesterday. It makes no deal by accident or otherwise less likely. We only have to tell them what we're doing next by 12th April if TMs deal fails, the cliff edge could be moved if needs be and legalities quickly changed.

Looking at their spending plans it would mean about 40 years of hard austerity to resolve the financial mess they would leave behind again.

True, depends how on stubborn May want's to be, if reports are true that she's become less risk averse to no deal then I'm deeply concerned

'Reports' designed to try and influence Remainers in next week's vote. However it's just going to encourage the DUP/ERG to vote no. She can't win, rock and a hard place so to speak....

Why not simply vote against the proposals for MPs to take control?

There’s no way they will both vote to take control then sit idly by and allow Government to sabotage it.

Government will table statutory instrument to change to exit date on Monday/Tuesday ahead of May's deal vote.

Re: Brexit (New).

Presumably April 12th with May's Deal including the later date if it passes.

I’m being briefed by a senior source that when the PM stood in front of the 27 EU leaders at summit yesterday “it was almost as if she wanted them to press the button (of a no deal #Brexit) ..
Might explain why the EU give us so many options. They want to ensure we, not they, take responsibility for No Deal. May would rather the EU take the blame.
