Remainer MPs in secret plan to force Boris Johnson to seek a third Brexit extension
show that they are planning several different strategies to try and thwart Boris' promise to deliver Brexit by October 31 no matter what happens.
But MPs say they could try and change the law to extend Article 50 and then have another election or a referendum to try and find a way out of the Brexit deadlock. This morning Tory MP Dominic Grieve, who has been involved in cross-party talks, told Radio 4 that Boris would be expected to maintain the status quo and keep Britain in the EU if he remained in post as PM.
But he said the Government was working hard to "to ensure an orderly Brexit" and that ongoing work would "avoid the chaos of a crash out".Rebel MPs WON'T be able to stop Brexit and they are running out of plots to try, experts warnIT COULD be too late for rebel MPs to stop a No Deal Brexit, a respected think-tank last night said.
The IFG said there are hardly any laws which need to be passed by MPs before the Halloween, making it far harder for politicians to amend legislation to stop a No Deal. He accused the Brexit Svengali of encouraging Mr Johnson to “rip the heart out of our democracy” by plotting to stay in No10 even if he loses a confidence vote.
