PMs change and lol we're all gonna die (but brexit will never end)

Boris in flat cap in 3..2..

Parliament's off from this evening btw

And that's before a campaign period they are very likely to lose

dezinformatsiya

Varadkar to Johnson:

“Securing the ratification in less than there years is going to be a Herculean task for you.

But we do want to be your friend, your ally, your Athena”

Even the fucker laughed at that

Is it a joke?

owl of prorogation takes flight at dusk dudes

I haven’t actually watched any of this shite yet but supposedly explains the ref

Quite a loaded “Athena to your Hercules” jab from Irish PM. She helped Hercules when he went mad by knocking him unconscious, preventing him from killing more people than he already had (including his children). https://t.co/mIqeGTATcv

That is excellent.

i dig it but dw i won't stan leo

Ty for your support during this difficult time

Can the shutdown (enough of this obscure p-word) tonight obstruct the NoNoDeal bill's Royal Assent?

no

cool

The daily mail is trying to smear Corbyn & McDonnell by posting about them being at the wedding of one of the Guildford four, love too be Irish in Britain.

ah yes, the famously guilty guildford four, however will crobryn and mcd recover from this shattering revelation

i fuckin love it when people draw attention to the many times when corbyn’s been on the right side of history and i didn’t know about this one, thx 2 the mail

I’m watching Education questions and I forgot Gavin Williamson was the SoS for Education, oh no.

Has he remembered?

His face when he said it tho:

1. "I say! This Caribbean chap's read a book!"

2. Then the meaning of the reference sinks in.

3. It really sinks in... pic.twitter.com/Cxku3SlCkI

... you mean about his hideous yellow teeth?

I think he will resign

that’s my informed guess

Niche but excited speculation...IF Bercow said he was physically going to stay in his seat and not budge, then Parliament wouldn't be suspended tonight

— Laura Kuenssberg (@bbclaurak) September 9, 2019

normal country posting as it usually does

Wait so is the idea here that the fate of the UK depends on how long Bercow can hold his poo

Pissing himself to own the Tories?

so from what the cabinet secretary was saying this morning it looks like if johnson gets vonced he just won't recommend an alternative PM to the queen and parliament will remain in limbo until someone caves we crash out. a default brexit with no one in charge seems about right

DEFECATIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON

unlock!

what’s the process if he resigns?

caretaker PM JC agrees an extension and then we go to the country with BJ able to play the hard man of brexit while the remain part of his coalition leaks to the LDs?

Enough Tory MPs have to agree to JC as caretaker? In which case forget it.

the commons has 14 days to avoid a GE by placing its confidence in another govt but quite how candidates are put forward is unclear to me and the govt thinks they can obfuscate it. all the rules date from the cameron govt and have never been applied before

so bercow is off on oct 31 and the new speaker will be elected while the tories don't have a parliamentary majority

Speaking of The Caretaker, I choose to believe that Everywhere at the End of Time, which ostensibly charts an Alzheimer sufferer's descent into irreversible oblivion, is in fact an aural allegory of Brexit Britain.

Early candidates for Speaker include @HarrietHarman @RhonddaBryant @LindsayHoyle_MP

May In

Bercow's last act is to ensure his successor is not chosen by a possible new Conservative government, but by the current opposition-controlled House.

Lindsay Hoyle is the fav, seems like a total arse-hoyle.

What’s wrong with him?

He dead. Meanwhile:

From now until 7.15pm: MPs debate the Grieve SO24 motion saying the government should publish its Operation Yellowhammer documents and correspondent about proroguing parliament. At 7.15pm there will be a vote taking about 15 minutes.

7.30pm: MPs will debate Jeremy Corbyn’s motion for 90 minutes. It may go through at the end without a division.

Around 9pm: MPs will debate a motion under the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Act and Lords amendments to the parliamentary buildings (restoration and renewal) bill. In theory up to two and a half hours has been set aside for these matters, but they are likely to wrap up much sooner - perhaps in about an hour.

Around 10pm?: MPs begin the 90-minute debate on Boris Johnson’s motion calling for an early election. When it finishes there will be a vote, that will take about 15 minutes. After that parliament will prorogue.

Good luck sticking to that...

Reminder of what he's doing here. Grieve is going to use a 'humble address' to get communication about prorogation, including WhatsApp, text messages etc, from key people around the PM, including special advisor Dominic Cummings & director of legislative affairs Nikki da Costa.

Tweet of the day, even better than the Laura K one:

Best of luck to a Conservative administration, for example, in appealing to the rule of law when trying to quell a trade union which decides to go on strike illegally.

— Lewis Goodall (@lewis_goodall) September 9, 2019

lewis... the conservative party can do whatever the fuck it likes because it will never be pulled up on its hypocrisy and in fact will receive active cover from a large percentage of our esteemed press...

Easy to miss lovely stuff like this among the big-ticket items

with the appointment of Therese Coffey as the new Work and Pensions Secretary, now a majority of members of the cabinet voted against same-sex marriage. This is the most homophobic government since the early 1990s. pic.twitter.com/heJ7K7GEy1

xp otm and will go full incitement at a second’s notice

tweet of the minute

Dominic Grieve tells Parliament he has received information from inside Government, the implication of which, is that Boris Johnson misled the Queen about his reasons for requesting the prorogation of Parliament 🔥🔥🔥

— Ben Bradshaw (@BenPBradshaw) September 9, 2019

There is something that really bothers me about Hoyle it might be that horrid accent. Probably better him than Harman I suppose, but when you look at the bookies shortlist for next speaker of the house a pattern emerges; they are all fucking different shades of horrible!

LOCK HIM UP xp
