I mean, don't get me wrong, I do genuinely think there's a good chance of no deal - currently putting it at 40%. But I don't think that'll come from a vote. I think it'll come from the lack of one.

I'm not trying to split hairs here but what sort of scenario are you thinking of when you say not a vote.

It's open to backbenchers to trigger various proceedures in the Commons, up to and including a vote of No Confidence - so they ought to be able to force a vote.

I currently think 60%

Sorry, I mean a vote that legitimises leaving the EU without a deal.

I see.

I think the reality is that it's all going to be murky, up to and including threats of violence. So, who knows what anyone will do.
