    It is also not merely rhetoric. Under the current makeup in Congress, removing the president from office quite literally demands bipartisanship. GOP Senators could either provide that bipartisanship or not.

    My thoughts with those harmed in & with thanks to our police & security services for running towards danger I hate to remind people that the time bomb that releasing still radicalised terrorists was brought to the PMs personal attention 4 yrs ago

    "What if we only ate food from local farms?" Weird article, because it skirts around the herd of elephants in the centre of the room, namely that we only produce about half the food we need. So the real answer to the headline question is: we'd be dead.

    Brexit: where ‘done’ means ‘not even remotely done’, where the only ‘certainty’ is govt dishonesty, where ‘free trade’ is achieved by walking out of the largest free trade bloc in the world and ‘no deal’ is now called an ‘Australia deal’ to sound less fucking insane. Going well.

    Laura Kuenssberg asking a proper question caught me a bit off guard for a moment. Then I remembered the appropriate response: “we’ve got a deal... it’s a great deal... oven ready... great deal... la la la la la… not listening..”

    : Boris Johnson’s new bill scraps powers for MPs to scrutinise future trade deals. We live in a facsimile of 1930s Weimar Germany folks. They happily voted for it too.

    PS I have been in the Westminster Lobby for over thirty years (since before you wer born) and am a former Lobby Chairman. I have never heard of an "inner lobby". This takes blatant attempts to divide and rule to a new level. So please don't lie.

    Dom blames “the shocking influence of lawyers on policy” for the current laws on the release of prisoners. Once more, slowly: Lawyers do not make laws. Dom’s boss and his mates make the laws. That has been their job for the last decade. The blame lies with them.

    I can safely say that in 22 years of being a political journalist, I've never experienced a day like today. No.10 sources now insisting that political editors like myself "are not banned, they are just not invited".

    So now knows he's giving a closing argument in a fake trial. The jurors and defense attorneys are both fake (as many are defense witnesses) and the judge is an unstuffed scarecrow. I'd give a closing today that brings in *all* the evidence and allegations. Why not?

    I presume Cummings knew this already so they can say that lawyers are interfering.

    In huddle after speech, PM's spokesman was asked what is the difference between an Australia-style trade deal and trading on WTO terms? He said, after a pause: "Australia has some agreements with the EU on a number of key areas." 🤔
