Could Boris resign and be the next PM?algarkirk said:
True, but what that leaves unaddressed is the situation - not now impossible - in which the PM resigns - perhaps the only way of fulfilling his promise of not asking for an extension - but does not name a successor to HM the Queen because there isn't one in his opinion that could command a majority - just as he can't.Philip_Thompson said:
There's no such thing as "first try" as Brown showed in 2010. Either someone else can command Parliament, in which case they become PM, or nobody can in which case we need an election.

Maybe Corbyn gets first try and fails (Swinson against). Then maybe Ken Clarke?

Elphicke does not need to be bought off. He should not be counted as an Independent for these votes, as he is a careerist Conservative who will do whatever BJohnson asks.

In one letter I would copy and paste the letter Parliament has drafted in the bill.
In the other letter I would write that Parliament has declined to pass any deal, there is no intention to ratify any deal by Parliament and that this is just messing around so he does not want an extension but is legally obliged to ask . . . but if they want to reject the request he would understand and respect that.

If the Opposition continues to block an election then it's what the logic of his position dictates. He can then fight an eventual election as Leader of the Opposition and blame Corbyn (assuming that he's then PM, although AFAIK there's no bar on Johnson recommending the Queen call for somebody else) for the extension.AramintaMoonbeamQC said:PM seems to be suggesting he will resign if we're not heading out on the 31/10.
The other two options - asking for the extension himself, or breaking the law - are both electoral suicide, and the latter would presumably be subject to defeat in both the UK and EU courts in any event.0 -

Johnson just isn’t up to it and he seems to be realising it.0

If Johnson resigns and puts Corbyn into bat, and then demands an immediate VONC, he'll almost certainly get his election. There are too many MPs outside of the Labour Party who are too vehemently opposed to Corbyn in power to vote to keep him there. After all, as far as the Remainers are concerned they only need a PM in place who's ready and willing to ask for the A50 extension - and Corbyn will do that, because obviously to fail to do so would destroy the Labour Party. Beyond that, he's of no further use to all those who would otherwise oppose him politically.Casino_Royale said:

The VONC would not affect Corbyn's ability to go to the EU summit and ask for the extension so, unless the Commons thinks there's a realistic chance of the EU27 saying no, there's no harm for the Remainers in voting him out immediately: as the incumbent, he would stay in as caretaker until election day. Therefore, if Labour declines to back an October 15th poll then November looks pretty much nailed on.0 -

I am a one nation conservative, not a Farage tribute act, and support the 100 conservatives/or sacked conservatives who I hope rebel in a block and create their own movement, and by the way, see the end to this disastrous brexit earthquake and engineer either a soft brexit or even remain
I am bitterly upset at what is happening but inthe end decency will prevail as we start to slowly heal the wounds both in the UK and the EU and restore international friendships and our reputation.
I no longer want to be associated with those who would create division and hatred against so many here and abroad
And I even accept that could be under Corbyn, but if it is, Boris, the ERG and yourself are all responsible for the economic armagedon that would follow him in office

Is that strictly accurate? As with May many Tories will be 'fully behind [a] Brexit deal' in theory but not like the look of the one they get. Won't we need to see what deal Boris achieves and see if all remaining Tory MPs back it before we declare them 'fully behind' it? Are Baker and Francois behind it? Clearly they are not behind any deal, so until we see the deal they cannot be assumed to be in support for starters.HYUFD said:
