Theresa May's purported Article 50 notification is unlawful. So-called "Brexit" (actually UKExit) should be killed ... NOW! Support the planned legal action

Hypothesis: @BorisJohnson (and/or Dominic Cummings) is still aiming for a 31st October UKExit ("Brexit").

Here's how it could (arguably) be achieved (if other players act stupidly). BJ's latest proposal is reportedly for UK Govt. effectively to go on strike if House of Commons doesn't agree to 12th December General Election.

Consideration of EU Withdrawal Agreement Bill is also to be paused (indefinitely?) if HoC doesn't agree on Monday to General Election.

Would the following scenario **guarantee** a "No Deal" UKExit (assuming @BorisJohnson was sufficiently determined/crazy)?
Remembering that Dominic Cummings is potentially creative/destructive.
@syrpis @ph210147 @jillongovt Let's assume that @BorisJohnson targets an Election Day of 31st October 2019 and intends to use s2 of the Fixed Term Parliaments Act 2011.
