'Basic foundations' of Brexit deal 'ready', should be 'clear' in seven-eight hours, says EU's Tusk

Tossing in the word "theoretically" on multiple occasions when describing the status doesn't really fill me with confidence.
Nothing is agreed until everything is agreed.
When someone says "theoretically" twice in two sentences... that's not big news.

If they can't get the DUP onboard (and they really shouldn't- it's completely antithetical to everything they stand for), maybe. If not, probably not- they'd be relying on Labour rebels to pull them across the line.
based on the few things we heard about the revised wa (not the deal), it sounds way worse for the uk than may's version.
Don't we need to know the contents of said agreement to answer that?
No chance. The only way this gets by the EU is a customs border on Northern Ireland. If Boris proposes this he will lose the vote, the DUP will never back it.
Which is a quite incredible achievement. Tories - "we can always make it worse".

He will never ask for an extension even though he is legally bound to
My wish is for the EU to NOT allow for any extension. This farce has been going on for far too long, and an extension won't fix the UK's inherent problems. What did they do with the last extension? Almost nothing, politicians are running in circles. France is also against an extension and could veto it, so unless the UK accepts a very poor deal it's going to be a hard brexit come October 31st. Which is all part of the plan for Russia: weaken the EU and the US. Divide and conquer.
This is the EU saying the the UK is telling them they're ready. They're putting pressure on the UK in the final hours.
A border down the Irish Sea means Boris loses teh DUP, but supposedly up to 19 Labour MPs are ready to back a deal. It's really hard to say if this passes the HoC or not.
We'd use the extension this time for a general election and hopefully install a government that isn't full of self-righteous, morally corrupt fucking cunts. So kindly fuck off with this rhetoric.
I'm sceptical the DUP will sign on to this, even if Arlene has been charmed by Boris, and even a few Tories will bolt. And they are going to need a full house to get it through parliament.
Ironically I see someone attaching an ammendment that this needs a confirmatory referendum and that passing the house, which would include a delay.

Wishful thinking. Failing to get a Brexit by the 31st would probably cause the Brexit Party to balloon and leave you with even worse cunts in government come election time.
For the record, I don't see this deal passing unless some kind of weird Boris effect comes into play. It really is basically another version of May's deal. Then again, Brexit fatigue is setting in and Boris does have a different reputation so who knows.
That's not remotely true. Thanks to FPTP they'd never get enough votes to take individual constituencies beyond a couple of fortresses, and will only serve to bleed away Tory votes.
