There would be intense questions asked of Labour, but only this week. Then prorogue kills it off.

The irony that his own prorogation might hobble his own plans is delicious.

Good point that the prorogation now restricts Johnson's room for manoeuvre.

Doesn't feel very clean - let's face it, if the public want us to leave on 31st October without a deal we're going to have to accept that

A petard was a small bomb mainly used to breech walls, and of course to be hoisted was when the bomb blew up in the face of the aggressor, or maker. First used in Hamlet.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves: no deal has not been ruled yet. The bill has not passed yet. The bill has not become law yet. Remainers and soft Brexiters only managed to fight another day. Brexit Lords have the power to delay the reading of the bill, maybe enough to derail it.
