While there are a couple of scenarios by which Boris Johnson, Britain’s potential next Prime Minister, could deliver on his no-deal Brexit, the most cunning one involves removing them, temporarily of course, from having to deliberate on the issue.

A report from Sky, citing unidentified campaign sources, stated in the event Boris Johnson was to become Britain’s Prime Minister, he could send lawmakers home for up to two weeks in October to prevent them stopping a no-deal Brexit on October 31.

“One of the options being considered by the Johnson campaign is to send MPs (members of parliament) away in late October to give them less chance to, in some way, block a no-deal Brexit,” said Sam Coates, Sky’s deputy political editor.

With the news reaching the forex market, the Sterling fell below $1.24 for the first time since April 2017.

Sky reported citing campaign sources as saying, Johnson is looking at scheduling the government’s legislative plans, to mark the start of a new parliamentary session in early November.

As parliament is prorogued for between one and two weeks ahead of a Queen’s Speech, that would mean that lawmakers would in effect “be unavailable to stop a no-deal Brexit immediately before October 31”, reported Sky.
