If it's a choice of No Deal or Corbyn making way for a member of his own party, wouldn't the pressure on him to step aside be irrestible?
You think his frontbench and the membership would allow one of the old, Blairite brigade being allowed to become PM instead of him - thus in effect taking control of the Labour Party? Abso-fúcking-lutely no way. That would defeat absolutely everything they've been working for since 2015.
You have to remember that these guys are old-fashioned Marxists. They don't give a flying fúck about Brexit other than as a means to an end. Equally, they have no issue with No Deal, since they see it as an opportunity to blame the tories and win an election. All they want is to get into power.
