@EroomSimon @Left_Of_London @DavidHenigUK I think it’s a good question. You can argue there was a mandate to leave but not how to leave. But we were sometimes told it was a mandate for all different particular versions of Brexit. As if remain winning would have mandated Schengen and the Euro.

Suspect that those sorts of games with the Privileges Committee would spook the markets more than anything. Markets don’t like polities with decaying accountability.

Running could allow Johnson to make a Churchillian comeback, claim vindication & make it easier to block, overturn or water down the findings of the Privileges Committee on the grounds that it would spook the markets to destabilise a sitting PM but …

I think you will find it is the interests of his constituents they are meant to serve. Not the views of the majority.

All those Tory members of parliament who are apparently going to quit if Boris becomes p.m. again good ,the country will be a lot better off without you I think you will find it is the view of the majority of the public you are supposed to serve.

IMF gonna have to wipe their arses for them.

This from IMF is humiliating for Kwarteng and Truss: “Given elevated inflation pressures in many countries, including UK, we do not recommend large untargeted fiscal packages at this juncture, as it is important fiscal policy does not work at cross purposes to monetary policy”.

@DehennaDavison Prioritising a tax cut for the highest earners which will cost billions at a time when millions are suffering from a cost of living crisis is abhorrent and most importantly politically damaging. Its a big and costly mistake in more ways than one.

@AHenry57 @B1EMW @MaiOpine @davidallengreen Then it implies there is a collective called the “strippers Lenin”. A bit like the “brothers Marx” but take their clothes off.

@richardpauptit @spinybadger @davidallengreen I review other people’s writing. It inefficient to rewrite their sentences to deal with this issue. Adding a comma is a lot more efficient.

@B1EMW @MaiOpine @davidallengreen Nothing to do with emphasis. It changes meaning. Compare: “he invited the strippers, Lenin, and Khrushchev ” with “he invited the strippers, Lenin and Khrushchev”. Without the comma it implies L and K are strippers.

Brexit was of course the biggest surrender to global supranational organisations in living memory.

The Soubry-Maitlis axis. These people still have zero understanding of how global supranational organisations drain local communities of jobs and identity. Zero.

“We got exactly what we wanted but it’s everybody else’s fault it’s all as crap as they said it would be.” 52% of Telegraph comment pieces are now variations on this pathetic theme.

Good thread. All Starmer’s hard Brexit arguments are weak and in all likelihood as Labour government will end up sharing the blame for their failure.

@PAliceL @julianhitchcock @GeorgePeretzQC It could have been prepared the day before. But it’s quite common for the number on the date to be handwritten - I just don’t think there’s a great mystery. He was either going to issue the letter that day or he was not.
