Who would vote for the risk of putting themselves out of a job and the DUP saw the chance to show May who really was pulling the strings.
The Labour Conference has instructed Corbyn to first seek a General Election so he eddto call a vote of no confidence at some time but he went too early--shudda let May sweat until after next Monday when she returns to announce her next big idea.
Knowing she would win the tribal vote of confidence May had prepared her next trap. After three years of ignoring other party's views she suddenly wanted the leaders to come rarnd to her 'arse that neet. The poodles of the Liberals, Plaid C and SNP went along but I think Corbyn was right to say "Yes, I'll play your game, but take No Deal of the table first". Cable and the SNP bloke (who I quite like) were on Newsnight after the meeting saying they got nowhere and joined Corbyn in demanding No Deal be tekken off the table befooar any further cosy chats. They learnt a lesson not to play May's games.
