This is rather hilarious. How many weeks have they (barely) held on? Eight? Change we can believe in.

Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 4 June 2019 13:23 (seven years ago)

look, the only constant is change

that's why here at change uk, we believe in never having the same membership from week to week

it's the new politics, and if you don't like it, just give us a week

Watching the Trump-May conference at work and May’s death glare when they were asked about Corbyn and Khan was hilarious. Trump said he “doesn’t know” Corbyn but turned down Corbyn’s request to meet him, which will do Corbs no harm.

gyac, Tuesday, 4 June 2019 13:27 (seven years ago)

Lol May had to remind Trump of the question about the NHS being on the table in a future trade deal. This is the worst thing I ever watched.

The Mirror understands six MPs will return to being Independents but five plan to stay as part of Change UK.

Trump just said of the leadership candidates that he knows and likes “Boris” and “Jeremy” but he doesn’t know “Michael”. Lol ffs

Michael Gove is having a meeting with Donald Trump because Gove is Murdoch's puppet. So not only are we being sold off to Donald Trump but to the likes of Rupert Murdoch too. Taking back control Brexiteers? Oh no no no. https://t.co/HLtwEIRlMa

Corbyn has been critical of him, he says. He says he does not like people who are critical.

Also it takes a lot for me to feel sorry for Sajid Javid but apparently he wasn’t invited to the dinner last night.

We'll be laughing about these clowns for years to come.

John Harris is a Guardian columnist (Tom D.), Tuesday, 4 June 2019 14:52 (seven years ago)

Theres a voice, That keeps on calling me
Down the road, Thats where I'll always be
Every stop I make, I make a new friend
Can't stay for long, Just turn around
and I'm gone again
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down
Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on
Down this road, That never seems to end
When you adventure, lies just around the bend
so if you want to join me for awhile
just grab your hat, come travel light
thats hobo style
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down
Until tomorrow, The whole world is my home
so if you want to join me for awhile
just grab your hat, come travel light
thats hobo style
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down
Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down
Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on
Theres a world just waiting to unfold
brand new tale no one has ever told
we've journeyed far but, you know it won't be long
we're almost there, and we've paid our fare with the hobo song
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down
Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on

credit where it's due, they're 100% living their message that politics is broken

Chuka should fear Gapes of Wrath.

John Harris is a Guardian columnist (Tom D.), Tuesday, 4 June 2019 14:56 (seven years ago)

Imagine Soubs and Gapes and Leslie staring at each other round the table now.

Not surprised about Berger - she’s barely been involved with them since the split.

gyac, Tuesday, 4 June 2019 14:58 (seven years ago)

Yes, she's disappeared off the face of the Earth, tho preggers I s'pose.

can it really be only three short months ago that uk politics was pregnant with the promise of change uk the independent group

Aspen Jortstein (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 4 June 2019 15:00 (seven years ago)

the gang of three.. wow what a force!

calzino, Tuesday, 4 June 2019 15:01 (seven years ago)

"some"

We are disappointed to learn of the departure of some of our MPs but Change UK remains totally committed to our founding mission of fixing Britain's broken politics and stopping a disastrous no-deal Brexit. 2/8

i thought i'd be able to outsource some lazy zings by running that change uk statement through talk to transformer but all i ended up with was text that was almost indistinguishable from the original

Aspen Jortstein (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 4 June 2019 15:17 (seven years ago)

Tories will be wiped out in EU election and are panicking about this PR disaster. More than 3000 have applied to Change UK to be MEP candidates (I am one of them)https://t.co/JedvY2q0Jj
