**Reasons why a Brexit trade deal might be imminent and they are not telling us**
1) Boris Johnson met the 1922 remotely tonight rather than turning up in person.

2) The Commons is rising tomorrow for its Christmas break until early Jan. MPs might be more likely to hand over their proxy votes to the whips to vote through any trade deal next week, if one is agreed and Parliament is suddenly recalled, rather than come back to London.
3) Senior Conservative Brexiteer MPs Steve Baker and Sir Bernard Jenkin dashed past me in the committee corridor tonight, making clear they they had little time to speak to me.
This is unusual. Something must be up, I am sure of it.

4) Boris Johnson was described as “firing on all cylinders” by observers at tonight’s 1922 committee meeting.
Given he only discussed Covid-19 and Brexit he must know that an EU trade deal is nearly done and we can all be put out of our misery.
