See reply to [personal profile] nojay above. They still have to vote for something, and that something then has to be agreed with the EU.

They vote against all possible options; the EU says right, no options then; we leave on March 29th with no deal. They don't have to vote for that; they just have to vote against everything else.

Yes, but that's not quite what this thread was about. It was about whether the Tories would unite around an option.

I think there is a difference between uniting around an option and everyone deciding not to push their own faction's prefered option, and by doing that actively cause a split with the end result being no deal, either because we run out of time, or the EU says enough is enough or it is easier for the Tory Party to blame the EU for a no deal than it is to blame one of its factions for the content of an actual deal that is hugely flawed.

I expect you are right but have no idea how to parse this sentence, so am not quite sure. Could it be two?
