- Remainer MPs are reportedly drawing up plans to force Boris Johnson to avoid no-deal and seek another Brexit delay in the autumn.
- Johnson is committed to taking the UK out of the EU on October 31, with or without a deal.
- MPs opposed to no deal believe they can topple Johnson's government, then use a 14-day window before an election to change the law, forcing Johnson to request an Article 50 extension to the Brexit deadline.
- However, an Institute For Government report published on Monday warned MPs that they have few options and little time to stop a no-deal Brexit.
Members of Parliament are plotting to force Boris Johnson to break his pledge to leave the European Union on October 31 and seek a last-minute Brexit extension, according to a report.
A strategy document leaked to the Times shows that Johnson's opponents in parliament believe they can torpedo his contentious plan to push through a no-deal Brexit and compel him to hold a general election before the United Kingdom has left the EU.
