There’s nothing to debate. The Tories and the Democratic Unionist Party are going to oppose the no confidence vote on party lines. They constitute a majority, so that will be an end of it.

The Tories already voted to keep May. They aren’t going to throw away their government.

Then the voters will, because this is going to make them look "bloody effing stupid".

327 out of 650 is not very much of a majority. I think that it is effectively 327 out of 642, but that leaves room for five desertions—party discipline needs to exceed 98%.

I wouldn’t call it a done deal.
