ROMANS: Twenty-four minutes past the hour. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has a new strategy to achieve a possible no deal Brexit by the end of October. He's threatening to call an early election. It is an attempt to thwart members of his own party who are trying to stop him from splitting from the E.U. without a deal. Max Foster live from London with the latest twists and turns in the Brexit saga -- Max.</s>MAX FOSTER, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Yes, there really is genuinely this time, Christine, going to be a showdown here in parliament today. What we've got is a situation where a large group of parliamentarians, amongst them a group of rebels in Boris Johnson's leading Conservative Party all getting together to try to block Boris Johnson's Brexit strategy. So, what they're going to do, they're going to introduce a bill today to try to delay Brexit. Boris Johnson's side are saying if they do that, he's going to come out tonight and call a snap election, which will effectively block that bill from becoming law. Bear with me because in response to that, the Labour Party, the opposition party which would normally jump at the opportunity you would think at a general election are now saying they would block a general election because they don't want to see the strategy unfold and they want their bill to go through. So, this is high politics and Boris Johnson has really put his neck on the line. But fundamentally, his argument is, he can't get a deal with Europe unless he has some sort of negotiating power, an argument to say he's in control of parliament and parliament is saying you're not going to control us. Thank you very much.</s>ROMANS: Wow, fascinating. All right. Max, I know you'll keep it watching it for us and let us know what happens. Thanks, Max Foster.</s>BRIGGS: All right.
