We’re constantly told that the Government is ‘letting the clock tick down’ to March 29 and a No Deal Brexit. But for Leavers such as me, Brexit seems to be getting further away.
I am convinced that the endgame for my fellow MPs – the majority of whom are Remainers, and who have seized control of the timetable and direction of travel on Brexit – is for a delay on Britain’s EU departure date, or no Brexit at all.
Huge errors have been made at every turn, which means the delivery of the people’s will is less certain now than ever before.
MP Nigel Evans has backed Theresa May
Naturally, the leaders of the EU’s other 27 countries are revelling in this weakness – and who can blame them.
I have long argued that it was foolish for a snap general election to have been held in 2017, which led to the Government losing its Commons majority.
We should never have had pro-EU civil servants negotiating our exit.
We should never have acquiesced to the divorce being negotiated separately from Britain’s future trading relationship with the EU.
We should not have offered to pay Brussels a £39 billion exit bill without using it as leverage.
We should not have signed up to any Irish border backstop arrangement that alienates DUP allies who are our umbilical cord to governing.
All that said, we are where we are. However, the Prime Minister’s deal is no longer the only one on the table.
We now have the possibility of an extension to the date of Brexit, and a fresh drive by the second referendum mob who see it as their best weapon to defy the decision in the 2016 people’s vote.
Meanwhile, Project Fear Two cheerleaders tell us that a No Deal Brexit would be calamitous – leaving the country starving, paralysed and in a worse condition than Venezuela.
Anyone who questions this is considered extremist, bordering on insane.
Mr Evans voted against Theresa May's deal over the Irish border issue. He says failure to deliver Brexit would be a betrayal to the people
Attorney General Geoffrey Cox is attempting to obtain legal clarity on Britain's ability to leave the EU
This Establishment orthodoxy is being driven ruthlessly from within the Cabinet and certainly from within Parliament, where I am convinced there is a majority against leaving the EU without a deal.
A Commons vote on the extension of Article 50 – delaying Brexit – would be seen as a triumph for Remainers and their campaign to halt Brexit.
I can imagine how they would crack open the champagne in celebration under the crystal chandelier in the Pugin Room.
I voted against Mrs May’s deal for multiple reasons, but the main sticking point was the ‘backstop backstab’ over the Irish border. We would leave the EU unilaterally – but the backstop could handcuff us to the EU for an indeterminate period.
What’s more, it could be exploited as a bargaining chip by the EU over our fishing rights, Gibraltar and other issues.
However, I also believe that Attorney-General Geoffrey Cox’s attempts to obtain legal clarity on our ability to leave – if the EU’s ‘best endeavours’ to find a solution to the Irish border issue come to nothing – are vital if the PM’s deal stands any chance of success.
For us Brexiteers, the jury is made up of more than 100 Remainer Tories who voted down the last deal, and ten DUP MPs who will not be bought off with a small sticking plaster masquerading as a water-tight legal certainty enabling us to leave at will.
We will all be looking very carefully at what Geoffrey brings back. If it delivers what Mrs May has promised that she would, and it has the backing of the DUP, I can see myself edging towards pushing this deal over the line.
I know the forces against Brexit are strong and calculating. Delay, too, could mean denial of the goal. But failure to deliver Brexit and honour the result of the 2016 referendum would be a catastrophic blow to British democracy.
It would provide succour to despots around the world.
It would starkly demonstrate that people’s votes aren’t worth the paper they are written on.
Some on my side of the argument will vote against the deal even with Geoffrey Cox’s Brexit guarantee. For there are other issues that they cannot stomach. Meanwhile, there are some Labour MPs who will vote for Mrs May’s deal as it delivers a Brexit that the people voted for – and it finally means the country can move on.
Politically, the next few days will be the most critical of my 27 years in Parliament. The pressure on all of us is intense.
My duty is to the people. They have spoken. I do not intend to betray them.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
