The misogyny on show here is sickening. I’m done with this site.

Trade expert’s view, for those interested: “Remain in EU = No Brexit Remain in Single Market = Soft Brexit Customs union = Hard Brexit FTA = Very Hard Brexit No deal = Very very hard Brexit” https://mobile.twitter.com/SamuelMarcLowe/status/1134126447294058497

Someone said that Labour’s “jobs first Brexit” was the equivalent to a “buildings first earthquake”. Labour wants us out of the single market, so it’s supporting a hard Brexit. The difference between them and the Tories on this is negligible.

Wot, no UKIP, Brexit Party, Lord Buckethead? I think Steve’s right, by the way. When push comes to shove, people like Grieve will put party before country.

Not just writing articles, but bringing in a lifetime ban for teachers who used his drug of choice: https://mobile.twitter.com/stevelapsl/status/1137641366266290177 VAT receipts count for 6% of GDP according to this guy: https://mobile.twitter.com/ChrisGiles_/status/1137466282452967424 Why is...

Either that, or he’s taking populism to its logical conclusion. “Vote for me, then I’ll tell you what you’ve voted for later. The will of the people c’est moi” sort of thing.

Or, as in the case of Farage’s latest grift, having no manifesto at all.

And yet they are everywhere you look. I don’t think the court case is a great idea, but it’s hard not to laugh that it’s happening when he is trying to become PM.

I’ve been very impressed at how Rory Stewart has destroyed his “I’m a reasonable one-nation, sensible Tory” schtick in a matter of days.

I had Stephen Hendry and Paul Daniels in mind when I voted. I think the Sunday People actually sent a removal van to Paul and Debbie’s house after the 1997 elections.
