They will try and block any deal negotiated by a tory government even if

its pretty much exactly the same or not dissimilar to the deal that they would be able to achieve or say they would be able to achieve.

So yes I think it would be a nightmare for Corbyn as 20-30 of his own MPs may potentially vote for it and see it through and he then presumably has to fight an election against a triumphant Boris Johnson who is the man who got the deal done and in an economic bounce as a result of the Brexit deal.

Having said that it would make an election about matters other than Brexit and so perhaps labour might quite fancy that given their Brexit policy is a nonsense but they do have a lot of free unicorns policies which are probably quite attractive to the electorate. If it was a Brexit focussed election I think between the lib dems taking p the remain vote and the Tories the Brexit vote labour would be in a bad place.
