    “He’s being gagged, he’s being muzzled, he’s being held captive by his colleagues… why won’t they allow him to have an election?” Boris Johnson is applauded after claiming Jeremy Corbyn will keep the country "captive in the EU after October 31” https://bbc.in/2l5UtwC pic.twitter.com/uxA4wQI4zd

        Tories clapping the PM for an elongated period which allows me the time to count about 80 non-clapping Tories with stoney faces and their arms folded. Interesting....

        When he finishes, Tories are encouraged to clap, so they start doing so. Desperate and bizarre.

        How is it a trap to have a democratic GE. If the opposition are confident in their stance re taking no deal of the table surely they would win. However they are not confident and therefore scared to put it to the people. #DeadParliament

        This lying illegal fraud lost EVERY vote since being handed the PM job. He's lied non-stop. Skipped his own Pressers. Been correctly called a fraud by Voters. Lied to the Queen. And ruled against by the highest courts in the land TWICE. Get that immoral addlepate out of office!
