May’s pathological instinct is to simply re-cycle her deal with Corbyn being fed a few concessionary ‘bones’ – amending the PD to include worthy statements about workers rights, environmental and consumer standards. The purpose to validate a fourth attempt at putting her deal to Parliament getting around the Speakers rule on repeating motions that are unchanged in substance. The Tory Party is not structured to deliver any deal on Brexit and the majority view in the sticks appears to be a no deal Brexit. Brexit will split the Tory Party and this may be complemented by Labour desertions. Corbyn needs to be aware of the dangers in what may become a blame game. If he has any sense he will insist on a cross-party role in the post Brexit negotiations, better still a summer general election. It’s a Tory monumental Brexit cock-up but they still ‘support’ a lame duck Prime Minister to front the negotiations – you could not make it up!
