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

tbh I share anvil’s confusion, there’s no way this doesn’t come across as a ridiculous u-turn? No deal has not been taken off the table but labour have reversed their position anyway as they were always going to

Delighted to be the @LibDems candidate for Kensington for the next GE. The community deserves better than @Conservatives pursuing a reckless hard Brexit & out of touch with modern Britain & Corbyn’s @UKLabour & their assault on property rights & pensions https://t.co/0f0N7au4bf

Lib Dems got 6% of the vote in Kensington last time. Brexit Party running Jay Aston, lol.

That's a Tory gain then

You could even say that was the plan

An election is the worst possible way to resolve Brexit and all who have supported it have done so out of failure. But now it is happening it must be about stopping @BorisJohnson and his hard ruinous Brexit

omg just double checked that, *the* Jay Aston :D

You could even say that was the plan

barry shearman on a normal one on twitter

I know a ton of Labour voters in Kensington who are willing to pound pavements day and night alongside EDC.

slams the bell to summon calz to thread

I hear Labour frontbenchers & whips resigning over decision to vote for December election.

Sheer madness to hold a General Election in December & on Boris Johnson’s agenda!

I think Grenfell will be a huge election issue locally and maybe nationwide. There are a lot of people living in unsafe blocks right now - and not just council housing.

The Grenfell report is due out tomorrow.

Margaret Hodge IN Keith Vaz OUT

Barry "Sheer madness" is hearing things

hopefully it won’t get as overlooked as it was no doubt planned to when Brexit day was supposed to be on halloween xxp

The inquiry examined claims published in the Sunday Mirror in 2016 that he offered to buy cocaine for male sex workers while posing as an industrial washing machine salesman.

Vaz’s explanation, which included that he had amnesia and could not recall key events, was “not believable and, indeed, ludicrous”, the inquiry found.

How do they argue that Keith Vaz should be the candidate if there’s a December election? Guessing they don’t.

nah, sounds legit imo xp

His wiki page goes places

POLL

I know it's all just speculation but surely there's a chance that December/Christmas subconsciously helps Labour - homelessness/food bank use etc is so visible; we all feel quite guilty about over-consumption; sharing and collectivism is sort of baked into the ritual of it all

grenfell report being spoilered by the Telegraph today, breaking the embargo to spin a govt-friendly line

What’s that? It was their own fault?

It was nobody's fault, apparently, just one of those terrible things that can't be blamed on any government or council, and please stop mentioning cladding

oh and the fire brigade are bad not good

OBR going to publish their economic forecasts on 07/11

first setback for BJ

After claims by Vaz’s friends that the MP may have been drugged during the newspaper sting, the Mirror released details of what it claimed was a second meeting between Vaz and the two men. It included a transcript of him allegedly ordering them to take up sexual positions.

Vaz denied that the purpose of his encounter with the two men was to engage in paid-for sex, the inquiry report said. “He asserts that the purpose was to discuss the redecoration of the flat in which the meeting took place. He claims that this was necessary because an ambitious programme of redecoration of his main residence, a detached house in north London, was about to begin. For the duration of those works, Mr Vaz and his wife would need to relocate to the nearby flat which he also owned.

If only there was some media available where people turn up to do some manual work only to find themselves having sex with each other.

Just lolled very conspicuously at that

Mr Kerr you shouldn't joke about him getting into No.10 He'd have us all members of either the IRA or Hamas by the following morning. The borders will be let open and Armageddon will ensue.

Bagsy the Ra

Heidi Allen now not standing at the next GE.

That's Change, baby

Sir Charles Walker, Vice-Chairman of the 1922 Committee, resigns from the Party Board, amid rising tensions over centralised candidate selection

Anyone who remembers the post mortem on how much centralised candidates pissed off the local associations at the 2017 election will probably agree that this is very good news.

Creasy amendment passing was disturbingly close - 312 votes to 295

everything is going to be disturbingly close from now on forever, as the mayans foretold
