Corbyn will not agree to a GE before end of October. (Johnson needs 2/3 majority to go ahead with it.) Johnson is thwarted in obtaining a no-deal Brexit, by the will of parliament, so the UK will then cancel Article 50 or ask the EU for an extension on the grounds that a GE will be called to decide the matter once and for all: remain in the EU or leave on whatever terms are available. The GE is held during Nov/Dec. Corbyn will campaign to hold a second referendum thus losing him many Labour seats in the north and midlands which voted to leave. He will be up against the tories and Brexit party, whose combined total will be the largest, but Corbyn will head the largest single party, resulting in a hung parliament. (Corbyn's losses will not be enough to disable him because enough Labour voters -- even pro-Brexit ones -- will bite the bullet and vote for him rather than the tories -- whoever their leader happens to be at the time.) Corbyn then has to cobble together a coalition government in order to govern. He can achieve this with the support of the SNP. (The Lib-Dems are yesterday's chip paper with fewer seats than they have now.) However, Corbyn has now to fulfil his campaign pledge and hold a second referendum. Whatever the outcome, the next stage is civil war.
