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

Seems legit.

“I had the best f***ing flat in East London. The reason why Boris would stopover was because of the clusterf*** of emails.
“And he was like, ‘Jen, what the f***’s a Google hangout? Where are you at three o’clock, I can, you know, stop over.

Because, obviously, as Mayor of London, he had no-one else to ask.

Am I right in thinking it's a bit more complicated than 'every EU country has a veto'?

can only report on all ive seen and this does appear to be the case tbh

they have a loyalty card??!

They do them in Pret A Mangy

Proof if ever you needed. It’s a bad idea for Corbyn to stand down for any temporary period. https://t.co/7TfpJUI72m

absolute nightmare fuel

what have we done to reserve john rentoul

I voted Labour in '97, could be that

he's no Ray Reardon

amazing ian blackford burn tho

where's jess phillips? her inclusion too on the nose?

even her melt cheerleaders have a finite amount of patience for such a self-promoting irritating as fuck knobhead

although jess might say it is pure class war!

i don't think anyone* now sees her as more than a gadfly backbencher with eyes on a media career

*even rentoul, dim as he is

my local MP Paula Sherriff made Jess look like the pretender she is recently. And she is no Corbyn fan, but initially accepted a minor position in his shadow cabinet and then couldn't arsed with the infighting from both sides and turned it down to concentrate on her constituency duties - especially as UC was being rolled out there at the time. She's pals with Liz Kendall but hasn't ever got involved in intrigues or publicly undermining the leadership as far as I can recall.

And I imagine she has never threatened to stab Jeremy Corbyn?

Don’t think she’d make up stories about telling Diane Abbott to FO either.

BREAKING. John McDonnell tells me that “we’ll NEVER accept an interim government without Jeremy Corbyn as PM.”

Not even if a government led by a “impartial”/bipartisan PM was the only way to stop No Deal?
“No, cause it wouldn’t work and it won’t have the support of Labour MPs.”

McD otm these are the important stats:

[Boris Johnson]
297 (Tories and DUP)

[Jeremy Corbyn]
284 (Lab, SNP, PC, Grn)

[some jumped up melt/nice tory/blairite detritus]
44 (LDs, TIG, Tory rebels)

what kind of maniac becomes an mp and aspires to be ‘impartial’

u loves to see it

love that that anger could be about literally any aspect of his life or career

Nice bit of editing to end on a shot of the Irish flag.

It’s even worse with ministers. Our terms are absurdly short. I held five ministerial jobs in four years. Just as I was completing my 25-year environment plan, I was made a Middle East minister. Just as I was trying to change our aid policy in Syria, I was made the Africa minister. Just as I was finishing my Africa strategy, I was moved to prisons. I promised to reduce violence in prisons in 12 months, and violence was just beginning to come down – when I was made secretary of state for international development. How can this be a serious way to run a country?

Rory on his bullshit again. Never mind that his voting record is completely wretched - he doesn't explain what he implemented to reduce violence in prisons cos erm.. I think it probably was the type of statistical blip that arsehole tory pols like him can't get enough of to justify their callous incompetence and this is a few days after a baby died during a lone childbirth in a prison cell. Yeah I'm sure you did a cracking job in every dept and were just on the verge of bringing in some game-changing transformation every time you were moved on ... he's one of them managers that loudly criticise the previous manager's training regime and the fitness of the players and then gets sacked by christmas, hovering above the relegation zone.

Just as I was completing my 25-year environment plan

hate it when somebody knocks on the door right in the middle of a great 25-year plan

doubly frustrating when no-one is taking your close cropping, deep ploughing theories seriously as well!

i once attempted to interest a lady in deep ploughing and she just laughed at me

Somebody shared a photo on FB yesterday of a pro-Brexit rally at Trafalgar Square that appeared to have about a handfull of people at it. Some people holding a banner and very very few people around them.
Can't find further reference to it, so wondered if it was supposed to be a mass countrywide rally that had people bussing in or what.
Hope that is reflective of the way people are feeling nationwide though.

How much longer can this be dragged out without it being given up on?

I'd love to drink with these clever lads

Imagine what they'd be coming out with by about the sixth pint

I walked past Trafalgar Square yesterday and saw one union flag and one st George's flag on the same pole, wasn't close enough to see what it was about.

The farmers protest in parliament sq was bigger with about 30 people.

No euro flags at all around Westminster. Do they get put up and taken down every day?

Looks like that was the rally. I've just looked back at the photo and it has that 2 flags thing in it.
NOt sure how many people in the photo I see are actually involved in the rally and how many are tourists who just happen to be in the same spot doing their own thing. There's so few 'protestors' that it seems there is no conscious overlap or whatever. I'd think that a large crowd would mean people would be either consciously engaging or consciously avoiding. These just seem to be people who are in teh same place but don't know each other and aren't that bothered, like.

bbbbbut people are ANGRY and there will be RIOTS

A riot, earlier this year:

I genuinely can't work out if that's a parody or not.
I do like the stock image of typical doggers though:

the murderous hatred in the average celeb melt towards Corbyn could be hot enough to power 0.04% of the national grid.
