I think the political correspondent Nick Eardley sums up where we are here and now quite well.

That person has blown it, he has allowed Bojo to stand on more solid ground with all his promises ringing richly in people's ears. Bojo has better odds on wining the next general election, it will take some very solid evidence to put Bojo back on shaky ground.
As for the EU their door is always open to drag out brexit.

So the game of ping pong has begun and that last sentence concerns me and a great many others I suspect.

Time seems to play in the Brexiteers' favor: this is a Google translation from something in Der Spiegel:
After a successful no-confidence vote, Johnson and his opponents would have 14 days to prove under British law that they can form a government without a new election - by winning a vote in parliament. If that fails, the prime minister must dissolve the parliament and start new elections. The waiting time is at least 25 days. If the opposition Labor Party requests a no-confidence vote right after the summer break on September 3, the rest of the timetable could look like this: September 4: The vote of no confidence takes place, the government loses. 18 September: The 14-day period ends without a new government. September 19: Johnson announces a new election date. September 20: The parliament is dissolved. As in the UK elections are traditionally held on a Thursday, the election could take place at the earliest on 31 October - the day of Brexit. If Johnson ignores this custom, October 25 would be possible. However, Johnson can largely determine the election date freely - and to act in a hurry he would have little reason. "His problem is that in Parliament, even after a new election there would be a majority for nothing/against anything," says a Brexit negotiator of an EU state. But the new prime minister would hardly risk repeatedly failing with a withdrawal agreement in parliament similar to his predecessor May. I assume the time gap between September 20th and Octobre 25th/31st is due to mandatory legal rules for a moratorium between dissolving the parliament and calling elections. 3 weeks?

Interesting if potentially chaotic times ahead Sky once Parliament returns.

Not much of a blow, I suspect they will fill those ranks with the solid hard left head bangers. Meanwhile I hear labour is planning a coup by over throwing boris....YEA YEA YEA. Dream on, with any luck it will be the voters over throwing Westminster when the you know what hits the fan.

Are we facing the night of long knives or is it just media over kill again.
So much info coming out makes me wonder how much of this brexit battle is true and what is nothing more than hot air.

Looks like we could be heading for recession as the economy contracts for the first time in a while...
