Brexit - Should they stay or should they go?

So It Seems we are in the middle of one almighty game of "chicken" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49240809Boris Appears to be doubling down on his demands for renegotiation with voices suggesting that even with the removal of the backstop his cabinet are now set for No-deal as the default.Meanwhile, in reaction to this new trajectory, the EU is stating that there is no basis for new talks. (as has been their postion since the negotiation of the withdrawal agreement).Boris once denounced the talk of food and medicine shortages in the case of a no deal as "Project Fear", but has now released 2.1bn to no deal planning in order to prevent such shortages. So it seems that even he has admitted that "Project Fear" was "Project Truth".So he blusters on hoping that the EU will give way. Something which they are unlikely to do.I can't help but harbour the feeling that part of the plan is (in the knowledge that there is no "good" brexit scenario) to take such an extreme, indefensible position so that parliament will be forced to shut him down, thus forcing a second referendum.
thereby, avoiding disaster and Saving face by being able to blame the U-turn on Parliament.Of course the other outcome could be a general election in which I expect a Tory/Brexit party coalition.As it is, I cannot remember a time when a party in power could have been so inept, such a complete disaster with an opposition party so completely unable to capitalise on it.Corbyn has shown himself to be utterly useless and the Labour party is all but dead.

what cheap TV show was Boris involved with?

The Letwin amendment requires that the house do not vote on the withdrawal agreement untill the legislation is in place.Some MPs feared that even if the deal was voted through, without leglistation in place to to force the PM to enact the deal, he could still opt to crash out with no deal. (a possible loophole to the Benn Act). They wanted this loophole closed.So this amendment is basically parliament making clear that they do not trust the current prime minister.

I can't see Nicola Sturgeon going on the run like Carles Puigemont.In other news... Today, Boris Johnson is pushing forward with legistlation to make it illegal to extend the transition period, thus making a hard brexit or "crash out" more likely.
any hopes of him not being beholden to the ERG extemists, due to his majority, seem to be evapourating.

Hmm you should watch some more of Jonathan Pie's videos...
