gotta be a certainty now

He won't get No Deal through this parliament, he wont get the backstop through his own party

Can't see any way out of the deadlock short of an election and then it's a grubby fight between Tories/Brexit party on one side and Lib/Green on the other and Lab sort of doing something in between.

Will be another hung parliament, and it'll all hinge on whether or not it's the Libs (or the DUP again) that are the kingmakers.
