There is zero chance of getting another deal which is why a general election, or at least a change of PM is getting more likely every day. May has been calling in her MPs one at a some to garner support and a large majority of them are refusing to see her. The consensus seems to be that the Chequers deal is dead in the water and the best deal is one being recommended by the European Research Group, the Super Canada deal, or Canada+++. The ERG has tried to cite it as a better alternative for months but Mrs May seems determined. Even though the Institute for Economic Affairs also published a report explaining in economic terms how such an agreement would work in practice.
It's a strange time in Westminster. Makes me glad to think I don't work in politics any more.
