Corbyn Calls for Parliament’s Recall

It is of course the case that May will ignore him. He knows that. She knows he knows that. Yet the request is worth making because it highlights once again the risk that May runs. Her plan is that the shear potential horror of a crash Brexit, whether real or imagined, will drive remainer and and soft Brexit MPs to back her in the final vote, while fear of losing Brexit altogether will drive the hard Brexiteers to go along with the kind of incomplete break they hate. There is also the growing fear of a general election on all shades of the Tory benches, which will grow worse after the holiday, as the instability of the government becomes ever more apparent.

Corbyn knows that too. Which is why he is pushing for a vote now. To clear the decks for what comes next.

By the way, what is that?
