There'll be some craic if she's ousted tonight. It could be the end of Brexit as very few want the poison chalice at the moment. 

Having said that she'll probably win meaning it'll take a labour no confidence vote in the government for her to fall.

Boris might  not have the numbers in Parliament if he does win. Soubry, Grieve and others have indicated they'll resign the Tory whip if Johnson gets the leadership

I am not sure the Tories would be able to agree on anyone, which would be tremendous fun.

Have a gut feeling she’ll win the confidence vote.

158 votes needed. Around 210 were projected to back her deal

if she wins, she's immune from a leadership challenge for 12 months though. wonder if that will come into play, and sway a few votes
