They are not thinking this through. Suppose the rebel alliance gets its way and passes a law that requires BoJo to go to Brussels to ask for an extension, how do they think that will work? He goes, he says 'I'm told to ask for an extension. I don't know why Parliament wants one, I don't know what Parliament are planning to do with any extra time. I can see no evidence of any consensus in Parliament as to what to do and can't see how the position will change'

That will go down well.
BoJo could simply go to one of the 27 who support the stance of BoJo to leave the EU and ask them to vote against an extension and because any extension has to be agreed by all 27 countries any extension would be stopped.

This would only leave us with yet another 3 months of just sat about doing nothing and still be in the EU. ****ing thick ****s who do not want to leave will kill this country.
