Mrs May's dancing is better than her performance at PMQs today.
To be honest she is struggling today but maybe her mind is on her statement over the nerve agent.
Indeed that is going to be the media's story for the rest of the day and beyond
Fantastic pride on our police and security services and it says a lot about how fortunate we are to be protected by them
So you're saying Mrs May can't multi-task?
That's not impressive.
Men invariably think that they're great at multi-tasking (women less so). The evidence that I've seen tends more to the think and not the result. Focus is underrated. I'm sure that you'd claim you're different but....
AIUI Putin's popularity in Russia is waning due, amongst other things, to a pensions rule change fubar. I wonder if this might lead to another 'spectacular' international intervention to boost it back up again?
Haha Mr HYUFD, you really are deluded. For the record I am not in favour of EU Superstate and never have been. There will not be one, and it continues to be a minority interest in Europe. If you actually knew something about European politics you would know that, but it is not your fault as you get your information from the Daily Express.
I happened to believe we had a very good deal with the EU as it was and it is blind nationalistic insanity that has taken us down the current path. My point is that it will likely be reversed and when it is we won't be able to go back to the relatively benign UK-centric relationship we have now because we will no longer have influence.
Then we will not rejoin or swiftly exit again, when the most every generation from school Leaver to pensioner wants with the EU is a trading relationship not to be part of an EU Superstate then the dreams of the EU ideologues in the UK will come to nothing
Have you interviewed them all? No thought not. Most young people I have spoke to on the subject (anecdotal - I don't pretend to know all their thoughts) are furious with ideologues like you that have denied them free rights of access to Europe. Yep, the older selfish generations that love to make use of privileges and then pull the ladder up. That is how they see it. I hope they have the last laugh, but I hope it isn't via Jeremy Corbyn. If so it's also your fault
Remember as well, given his position as LOTO / privy council, Jezza can get briefed on the intelligence we aren't allowed to hear.
But then he won't even meet with the head of MI5 to hear about the current threat of terrorism.
If ever there was an issue where the LotO needs to agree wholeheartedly and unequivocally with the government, it’s this. He’ll have had, and will continue to have Privy Council briefings on the issue from MI5 and MI6, he should be in no doubt that Russia committed an act of war on our territory.
I dare not think how he would behave as PM in a situation like this.

He'd point out this is the MI6 that assured us all that Iraq possessed WMD.
All those who say well all this talk of Jezza and his terrorist sympathizing, this hatred of Israel, he isn't really a danger, parliament will moderate any really extreme policies....his reaction to the Russia state poisoning people on the streets of the UK should be a strong reminder, he is a danger to national security...he is left wing Trump.
Very different response to Blackford from May than that to Corbyn.....fulsome thanks for his support for the government and wished it was shared across the house....
Grieve asking about issue of Russians arriving freely in the UK if they are sending over murders....
Yes, looks like they may be next up on the EU exit train, neither are in the Euro and both have nationalist governments
No evidence for your nationalistic wet dreams. You are so consumed by your little England nationalistic bubble that you believe any snippet as the end of the EU. It really is pathetic
Today’s events in Parliament should be a massive wake up call to Europe on the need to get fracking. The EU response to the attacks is going to necessarily be constrained by the reliance of a large part of their territory on Russian oil and gas imports for fuel.

I expect that he'd invite the Russian ambassador in for a cup of tea, and the ambassador would explain that Russia wasn't involved. They'd both agree that they deplored poisoning wherever it occurred, and that they'd work together to address the root causes of poisoning, namely Western imperialism and Israel.

Hard to see how we can maintain any kind of relations with a state which sends operatives to murder people in our country and leaves chemical weapons lying around here.

I agree and disagree with this in general, and you have expanded upon my point about moderates' failings at length. The more important question though is how you deal with those concerns - in the case of tax avoidance, it's fairly straightforward, even if difficult to put in to practice - seek international agreements outlawing or reducing tax havens' room to undercut and hide. On inter-generational unfairness it's not through want of trying - think the mansion tax or the 'death tax' - but proposals either being flimsy or governments and oppositions blanching at the first sign of trouble. On immigration, it's different, politicians have long tried to "address" concerns about immigration - and it has made the issue worse and more toxic. You need to get out there and make the argument that it is a net benefit, but then you need to make sure you are sharing that net benefit with those at the bottom - who are most likely to see themselves as thwarted or under threat from outsiders.

I read a good book about the Soviet war in Afghanistan recently — The Great Gamble by Gregory Feifer — why Russia would want to repeat that is beyond my ken.
I wonder how Brendan will react to Theresa's latest allegations against the Russians. Last time he accused her of succumbing to 'jingoism and anti-foreigner hysteria' and called Jezza 'sensible'.
Of course, Brendan's a man of high principle, but he needs to earn a living. I hope his pro-Kremlin line won't be detrimental to his lucrative employment by the right-wing press.

He condems Russia for not co- operating with the investigation, according to the Guardian politics live attached.
He went on to persist in saying Russia should be asked for evidence before we draw conclusions and implied both we and Russia were somehow equivalent in our approach to human rights. Deplored the general, not the specific. It was bonkers.

I still can't believe I had to do a thread on Chris Williamson being the next Labour leader
I genuinely fear you may be right. Look how many retweets that has got. If Corbyn and McDonnell make it to the next election and lose again narrowly, then have to stand aside, he's building himself a handy base of the most crazed Corbynites who he can preach to blaming everyone from Lansman to Blairites for failing dear Jeremy.

Mr Ace, what’s your knowledge of the GRU? I’m not sure that many of us have heard of them before today.
Not that much. I taught English and French to Russian corporates in Moscow for quite a few years so I've rubbed shoulders with a few ex FSB/SVR/GRU types. I got the impression that one never truly "leaves" the service no matter what and that the lines between the intelligence community, the corporations and organised crime are hazy at best. Inter service rivalry is absolutely intense and one of my students told me hair raising tales of how office politics escalated into gunfights with hired Chechen muscle! He also offered to kill my landlord with whom I had a dispute for $2,000. Moscow doesn't believe in tears, as the saying goes...
A compelling and substantial case presented by the Met and he Government with regard to the Salisbury attack on the Skripals and of course DS Bailey.
I'm left with a number of questions foremost among which is how unfortunate it was the initial clean up after the Skripal couldn't and didn't find the perfume bottle which poisoned Rowley and Sturgess so much later - perhaps Rowley picked it up soon after the attack but didn't use it until much later (I'm guessing).
We can do very little except point the finger - when WPC Yvonne Fletcher was murdered we cut diplomatic ties with Libya but no one is suggesting that and we still went to the World Cup despite all the calls we shouldn't.
In essence, these two GRU operatives have got away with it and will continue to do so unless they are stupid enough to leave the country or there is substantial regime change in Moscow which looks even less likely.
Yes, this casts a shadow over Anglo-Russian relations but for how long ? How will we craft a trade deal with Russia once we leave the EU with this still going on ?
We can work off the frustration with anti-Corbyn jibes but in the end it makes no odds.
I haven't heard Corbyn's response but I wasn't overly critical of his initial demand for more evidence. My problem was that it took him so long to respond to the initial event. He didn't seem to get the seriousness of it.

Interesting times to have a Trump in the White House.
Honestly the Cambridge Five were the greatest deception since FUSAG.
For those with an interest in Shakespeare, or Elizabethan England, Jonathan Bate’s ‘Soul of the Age’ is a very good read.
