Yes, i predict she will say to the nation, it’s the deal or no deal, I Also think the EU will will also take that position.

Taking way the safety net from parliament that voted to reject no deal, which was never in their power anyway.

It’s the end game. The choice is clear, there is no third way.

Any MP that voted to take No Deal off the table has to vote for the deal, otherwise it will be No Deal and there’s nothing they can do about it.

You can slag her off, but i predict she will win. If parliament vote down her deal, and de facto invoke No Deal, that’s on them, not her.

For the record, i think her deal is a decent effort.

Labour have always just obfuscated and just want a GE, now that’s not no way going to happen so will be interesting to see how their MPs respond.

I agree her deal is a decent effort but she is the Prime Minister and if there is a no deal and consequences are on her as well as Parliament. She is leading this process, just about.

BTW I think Remainers in Parliament are gambling on a long extension if the deal is voted down since technically it wasn't ruled out but I think they are miscalculating because who would ask for it?

Government can extend any time it pleases if the EU agrees. You are taking a very literal interpretation of Tusk’s remarks. He didn’t rule a longer extension out.

On top of that there’s always the potential to replace the Government for MPs.

Yes, “if the EU agrees”. They have just stated only on condition of accepting May’s deal.

Re: Brexit (New).

Well... she did say she’s not prepared to extend beyond 30th June.

We can chalk that up with “no general election” and “we are leaving on March 29th”.

No need to be disrespectful because you disagree.

The leaders of the EU27 haven’t agreed anything yet.

Tusk not ruling something in or out means you cannot definitively say one way or the other what he intends.

Remember. The default position isn’t that we leave at all. The Withdrawal Act can be amended over and over.

Would you like cream, ice cream or custard to go with massive slice of humble pie you’ve just ordered?

No, no.

If you ask someone to design you a new house, which they do and given the planning restrictions you’re generally happy with. Then others object to the scheme and prevent you from building your house even though in outline planning they okayed it. Then you complain that you haven’t got your new house.

Who should you complain to?
