No Deal is the base case as it is the default position in the absence of any action 

• Action requires consensus which is almost impossible as Parliament is so divided
• Not just over Brexit, but over attempts to gain power
• No one wants to own a Bad Brexit
• There can be no Plan B until the PM makes a decision
• A crisis is needed to break the deadlock.
• At that point there are 4 options that prevent No Deal:

1.  The pragmatists of both parties fall into line and pass May’s Deal (with EU concessions?)
2. A new government emerges via a 14 day post-No Confidence period or an Election
3. A government of national unity (GNU) emerges as Labour MPs defy the whip
4. Article 50 is extended to allow for either a Second Referendum or a General Election

• 29^thMarch 2019 is not the end of the matter
• A new era of political instability is upon us as each faction agitates for its own ends

·         Expect maximum mayhem by mid-late February and again in April
