UK stays in the EU customs union then?

Or gets some 'special' status?

Where we parallel the EU?

*De facto staying in*

European sources have suggested the new proposals effectively leave Northern Ireland in the EU’s customs union.

One diplomat said: “It will be de jure in UK customs union but de facto in the EU’s.”

Ahahahaha

"Under the plans, Northern Ireland would leave the EU's customs union with the rest of Great Britain but would continue to impement the bloc's tariff regime to prevent a border with the Republic."

"Diplomats have hinted this could eventually become the permanent arrangement in Northern Ireland, instead of acting as a bridge to a future relationship after Brexit."

Well looks like the Conservatives are going to be destroyed by the BXP in the next election

Could this be the bit risk strat?

Possibly

Get parl to agree to a deal

therefore taking Benn act off the table

then procratinating the legislation

and forcing no deal

Maybe

But the courts might try to block it if he does

Maybe but the benn act would be anulled then

I think it will all come down to if the ERG support the deal

If they do then it's possible that Johnson has told them that he intends to do that

Since i don't think they would support it for any other reason

Since it only applies if he doesnt get parl and the EU to agree to a deal before the date

It could work

it would be a big risk though

We will see

It still comes down to if he can even get Parliament to agree to it

Which will be difficult within itself

There is a shit tonne to be done before the 31st

if a deal is agreed

This probably won't his chances

If it's true

There is always the other play

Although he doesn't need Labour

count on exactly that

Use the labout party still refusing to play as leverage to get support for a loophole they found

If he can get the entire Conservative Party and the defectors and the DUP to support his deal it could pass without Labour although it seems unlikely

Totally depends on what the deal is

I guess he could get some Labour MP's who are desperate for a deal

I just don't see a deal which both the ERG and the Conservative defectors would agree on

We still don't know if the strat is to even get a deal
