Well done Jeremy. When keeping your mouth shut is the correct curse of action you can't stop the pompous verbal diarrhoea about lies discredited forty years ago.williamglenn said:

Of all the people to wait this long to quit a whip is surely the most bizarreFoxy said:https://twitter.com/GuidoFawkes/status/1084900458219610113

Whatever you do, don't tune in to Sky News or the BBC News Channel!NickPalmer said:Black_Rook said:https://twitter.com/PolhomeEditor/status/1084755578436624384
Is this actually liable to escalate into some kind of crisis or is it just the media hyperventilating? The idea of Salmond and Sturgeon getting into a full-scale catfight with one another seems somewhat improbable, though then again what do I know?
I've incidentally always thought it odd that there's an hour of news from 5 to 6, immediately followed by half an hour of news.
Incidentally, I always find it odd when an infinitely long news broadcast has to cut an item short for lack of time.0 -

Corbyn, I suspect, really does want a No Deal Brexit, and the ERG are doing their utmost to deliver it for him.williamglenn said:
Fortunately for us, they are opposed by Dominic Grieve who appears to be able to run parliamentary rings around them all.0 -

That would only be fortunate if he had a constructive alternative to offer (and I say that as a great admirer of Grieve). At the moment, he hasn't..Benpointer said:

Yes, duplicitous as he is (if Brexit is the biggest mistake we could ever have made he should never in a million years voted to trigger it), and as fanatical as he is, he's proven an effective statesman. Or he will, if he pulls off his dream of remain, even with the ongoing issues that will have. But he also may end up doing more than anyone to cause no deal, if his parliamentary chicanery does not work other than to prevent anything getting passed.Benpointer said:

Favourite band on Betfair has come down to 200-209 supporters of the Deal which implies a majority of around 205 against.0

Funny you should say that, because so do I. It's a voice that soothes in the way that, say, 'Devious Dom' Greive's does not - and to show I'm impartial, that Boris Johnson's most certainly does not.Gallowgate said:I must say I find Nigel Dodds's voice very relaxing.

326 politics has the majority of 203 against, and this little neat multiple imputation:Barnesian said:Favourite band on Betfair has come down to 200-209 supporters of the Deal which implies a majority of around 205 against.
