    I now believe the UK is a fictional nation, like Zembla, Grand Fenwick, or Ruritania.https://twitter.com/paulwaugh/status/1169260186344808448 …

    Latest intel from the red benches. If Lords sits thru night and don't adjourn until after 10.30am tmrw (Thurs), it is still technically a 'Wednesday' until peers decide otherwise. In parl terms, it could still be 'Wednesday' in Lords *for several days* until peers sort things.

        The Long Parliament sat for 20 years (waves hand). Who knows how long the Long Wednesday could drag on.

        One of history's great missed opportunities was that Red Ruthenia never actually became a country.

        It is actually Ruritania come to life in the 21st century. Johnson thinks he is Rudolf Ressendyl, or at least Rupert of Hentzau. In fact the feckless Rudolf V is closer to the truth
