    12
    May had 330 out of 650 so 14 going on 22 at a push

    and the threat of a Corbyn Government to keep the ERG in check

    4 because SF don't vote
    8 because the DUP could be traditional allies if their causes align.

    It’s like death by a thousand cuts with the way they vote in the House of Commons.

    Johnson is up,

    No my friend, you will need to send that letter and think you can get a deal done in the time. The time for the opposition is near, as soon as he has asked for the extension they need to move on a VONC of GNU to get a second referendum on Brexit.
