Johnson is supposed to be meeting with Merkel and Macron, to try to convince them of the need to negotiate another deal minus the backstop.

It ain’t going to happen. He knows that, but he has to be seen trying. Of course some will be gullible enough to believe Johnson.

There has been talk of leaving early on twitter, but I think that it is highly likely to be just talk, as the U.K. needs much more preparation.

Absolutely - they should never have gone on their jollies with this catastrophy ahead- crazy. If Johnson won't call Parliament back - others should just get together and organise in another venue.

It has been a coup by the hard right, they will never give in.

We need to bring back control to our sovreign parliament before it is too late.

This is a national emergency. There is no mandate for an undemocratic no deal #Brexit. Reckless Johnson + unelected Cummings want to gag our democracy. We have written to the PM to demand Parliament is recalled. RT if you believe @BorisJohnson should #RecallNow
