I don't believe Johnson's opponents have the numbers: DUP and ChangeUK won't vote for an election
The minister quoted doesn't understand Fixed-term Parliaments Act: losing Q's Speech vote doesn't mean an election
But absolutely right that Johnson would be almost as much a zombie PM as May is now

EU Parliament voting intention (10-11 April)

Lab - 24%
Con - 16%
Brexit Party- 15%
UKIP - 14%
Lib Dem - 8%
Green - 8%
Change UK - 7%
SNP/Plaid - 6%
Other - 1%

yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…
The Conservative/Labour vote is already down from 2017, and they are set to do even worse at the EU Parliament elections because many of their remaining voters are willing to temporarily lend their votes to smaller pro/anti Brexit parties yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…
Here's a static version of that gif. 22% of those who would vote Conservative in a general election would lend their vote to UKIP/Brexit Party for the EU Parliament election. Likewise, 11% of current Lab voters would lend their vote to an anti-Brexit party yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…

#Brexit: ricapitoliamo.

1) La Camera dei Comuni incarica Theresa May di rinegoziare il backstop per evitare il ritorno della frontiera fisica tra Irlanda e Irlanda Nord.

Cioè quello che May ha cercato di fare a dicembre e inizio gennaio ottenendo una lettera Ue di chiarimenti
#Brexit: ricapitoliamo

2) L’Ue risponde subito: no.

Come già detto a dicembre l’accordo di ritiro, backstop incluso, non si può rinegoziare.
#Brexit: ricapitoliamo

3) La Camera dei Comuni dice “no” all’uscita senza accordo, ma boccia gli emendamenti per rinviare la Brexit.

#BREXIT craziness update so maybots deal is blown out of the water l. Similarly corbyns vote of no confidence fails and won't be backed by SNP and lib dems
Despite her #BREXIT deal being defeated by biggest margin a government has lost a vote ever maybot seeks concessions on backstop despite being told to bog off by the EU with no realistic hope of a different answer
Corbyn meanwhile refuses to talk #BREXIT without no deal being ruled out despite knowing she can't do this whilst maybot makes no concessions either.
