? In event of general election, Labour’s manifesto position would be:– negotiate a deal with EU to respect Brexit vote– any final Labour deal then put back to the people – ballot paper would have Labour deal vs RemainCRUCIAL: Labour position would depend on deal negotiated.

After all, it was only very recently labour list the support . Have they finally taken their voters for granted too much?
2) Trump does not get to choose HM Ambassador.
That's the bottom line.
If he doesn't know him, surely he's not dealt with him up to now? Making it beyond irrelevant who the ambassador is!
Boris hurts the BXP vote, the others, not so much.
Just to remind us with whom we're dealing (both).
I now have to either to defend Trump or agree with Johnson.
"I have been very critical about the way the UK and Prime Minister Theresa May handled Brexit" - I think this applies to [most people here].
"What a mess she and her representatives have created" - Ditto
"I told her how it should be done, but she decided to go another way" - We haven't told her but we have each said our own ways on how it should be done.
"I do not know the Ambassador" - Me neither, do you?
Snipping bit about US
"It was the Queen who I was most impressed with!" - Would you be more impressed with the Queen or Theresa May?

2) He can kick him out if he feels that strongly about it.
Does not compute.
Surely this act can't prevent a dissolution of Parliament due to a General Election? And it can't be recalled during an Election can it?
Guess we know why now!
I wonder who said that ?
To have them both in the upper 20s will be a relief (for them) after a couple of months of a four-way scrap in the lower 20s.
Con/Boris is clearly off the back of perceived clarity/movement on Brexit. God knows what’s helping Corbyn (unless the fieldwork was done in the 30 mins between clarity from the unions and fudge from Labour in response!)
It’ll probably affix Corbyn’s bum to the fence a bit harder if there’s still some finessing of Lab’s position to be done on Wed.
On Trump: bleurgh. I take Philip’s point that at one level there’s not much to disagree with. But it shows how little latitude he’s prepared to give any govt, even ones with gold coaches and corgis, when it comes to business. None of which - as we know from the ambassador - will come as a surprise to HMG. But if I were Johnson, I’d think twice about getting too close once I had the keys to Number 10.
The backstop is what happens after transition. A standstill without a backstop just kicks the no deal can from now to the end of the transition, while giving time to negotiate a solution.
And it's perfect.

Stay in the customs union and single market, and continue paying membership fees?
OK.

It also solves the problem of how you handle leave seats - we will still leave we are just going to conform how first and surely Brexit is going to win so why worry about it.
And it pacifies Remain voters - yes there will be a second vote but Remain will win so what are you worried about...
And you could have the bizarre scenario where most Labour MPs were trashing the Labour deal and wanting to Remain.
And if there’s an election the Labour manifesto would be to leave with a deal which means a load of Labour voters would still vote Lib Dem and Green .
Meaning there’s a good chance the Tories could get in .
So basically Labours policy is completely preposterous.
For example, Len McCluskey wants us to believe Jenny Formby is fit to be GenSec of the Labour Party.
I will instead settle for pointing out that he may have reasons that are not strictly professional for this bizarre desire.
Bit of a stinker for Farage’s lot.
I see no material difference between being a state of the USA or a state of the EU.
At least the USA has the same language and a common culture.
Apart from that...
At last, a reason to vote for Corbyn!!!! At least he wont take this idiot's phone calls.
I genuinely didn't expect you to provide an actual example!

That’ll be one of those “Union Dividends”.
Give it a few more decades/centuries and I think the distinction will be very weak.
