The fundamental problem is that people are not yet desperate enough to be tooled-up and pogrom-ready, whatever Labour members may fantasise, and they still won't be in a hard Brexit. .

That’s scandalous talk.

Johnson's wanted to be PM for far too long to have taken the opportunity at this time without having a bladdy good chance at staying PM for a good while IMHO, so I reckon he's got a plan underway that will see him stay PM for a while yet - and with a chance of winning another GE too.

It seems to be to completely ignore the no confidence result and refuse to leave. Kind of like he did with his Foreign Secretary house after he quit without telling anyone at the conference he was meant to be hosting.

The one that hasn't happened yet.

Has JC lost a leadership contest? I thought he kept winning due to popularity with the membership.

If Corbin does not want to leave with No Deal why did he not vote for (and encourage the rest of his MPs to vote for) any of the deals the last PM put forward?

Because they were all terrible.

No, but he has lost a vote of confidence by his MP's and refused to leave. From the very recent Tory leadership election it can be assumed that BJ also has a degree of popularity with the membership of his party.

The OP asked ''will Brexit happen?'' - but does not specify a date.

Will Brexit happen by Halloween 2019?
My money is on 'no'.
But the GBP will be bouncing around for the next few months.

I don't think Brexit will be ''cancelled'' any time soon.
The whole thing is just going to drag on indefinitely.

I'd save your money, the only certainty right now is that everything out of Boris mouth is a lie or mistruth and makes us poorer.
