    That so completely not the point. Can't you see that Cummings plan is to :

    1. Get the house to agree an election for October
    2. Once agreed, the government simply use prerogative to change the date of the election to after 31st October
    3. Parliament would then be powerless to stop a no deal exit.

    Is that simple.

    Happy for GE anytime after this date, on terms you suggest : tories representing no deal Brexit v everyone else.

    There are still ways that Boris can get a GE and both would be underhanded but not illegal. He could call a no confidence vote in the Gov because it has no majority or he could simply advise the queen to not give it Royal accent because it would undermine her Government in negotiations with the EU.
