ok now it is a bit clearer as to what is going on. snaciv javid is adamant the manchild will not break the law. he will go to the eu summit and negotiate 17th and 18th of october and if he gets a deal he will put that to parliament and if not he will put the no deal to parlaiment. if they fail on either my guess is that they worked out that manchild will resign and initiate another tory leadership contest thinking it will take them over the line with no deal over 31st of october.
naturally they are too stupid to realise that even if he does resign he is still pm and still liable during that contest to take the letter and in any case the tory mps have already said they will bring down the government to extend and hold an election.
