  • tomorrow, the House of Commons will set on a Saturday for the first time since the Falklands War.

  • Speaking of elected representatives that my fellow MPs in Westminster do now come together to get Brexit done.

  • We have 650 MPs in the House of Commons, but only 639 of them actually vote.

  • All will be told or whipped in parliamentary language to vote for the deal that includes 28 members of the E R G group who support or harder Brexit and refused to back Theresa May's deal.

  • Some may not end up voting for it this time, but let's assume they do.

  • Boris Johnson is still short, so where does he find the numbers to get him over the line?

  • Well, not from the SNP applied or the greens there are likely to vote against as other Liberal Democrats and the Independent Group for Change.

  • Crucial head could be the 10 MPs from the D.

  • U P in Northern Ireland, there still insisting they will vote against the deal.

  • But there are two other groups that could be won over 1st 23 former members of the Conservative Party.

  • It does look very tight a lot.

  • My even depends on whether some MPs vote against his plan or decide to abstain as in don't vote either way.

  • If that happens then the maths gets even more complicated, but it could just tip the balance in favor of the prime minister's deal.
