May has implied that Brexit could end up never happening if her deal is voted down this week.
Do you think this made her deal more likely to get through or less?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The thing is, this is obviously designed to try and encourage Brexiteers in parliament to vote for her deal (as she's suggesting the alternative will be remain). It also seems to be working - plenty of ERG-ers are making far more conciliatory noises than they were.
But at the same time, if she really means this threat, then it's also an incentive for Remainers in parliament to vote *against* her deal, in which case she may well have just defeated the deal she is trying to save...

She reneges on just about everything she says whenever it will suit her: Second election, national insurance, hinkley point, etc. etc.
There really aren't any major policy areas that she hasn't u-turned on.
That's what makes me think none of this is really about principle for her - everything seems to be expediency, subordinate to the goal of being in office.

What a surprise! Perhaps when Mrs May said ‘No deal is better than a bad deal’, she meant ‘no deal’ means staying – and that, I guess, is her 'better' bit.
Jim, //The idea that Theresa May has been a Remainer is utter nonsense.//
Not so. She is a Remainer. Anyone attempting to do a ‘deal’ that keeps this country tied to the EU in any shape or form is a Remainer. Leave meant leave.. but then you know that.
