    Rudd resigns Conservative whip...another one gone.
    Her statement is utterly disingenuous. She's sat and voted in a Tory government that has made diabolical decisions that have had a detrimental impact on the weakest in our society but for her the final straw was the unjust treatment of fellow Tory MP's. Good riddance, but I think we've not seen the last of this egotistical career politician.

    The Labour vote is no more deeply divided than the Tory vote.


    There is a massive remain vote out there but they won’t vote for Corbyn and they don’t believe the Lib Dem’s can win. A moderate Labour leader could scoop up that vote.

    The fact that 5% of ukip voters want to remain suggests many are not fit to vote!

    Nothing cheery about this shambles unfortunately. Govt now openly declaring they will 'test' the law once they fail to achieve a deal by Oct 19. In other words, Boris is completely prepared to break the law.

    I know, and once that has been accepted by "the people", then he can do it whenever he chooses. Any time he doesn't like what parliament tells him he can just ignore it.

    I am angry at myself for thinking that anything has changed in the English voters' mindset in the last 40 years. They will continue to self harm at the ballot box, and blame everybody else for their injuries afterwards.

    Check her out during the hustings for the last election, trying to stifle some probing questions on her involvement on arm sales to Saudi. Ably assisted by a willing C of E vicar !

    Yep for the love of god I wish someone like Yvette Cooper or even Starmer would just grab it by the reigns and go for it.

    Not that weasel Watson though. Can't stand him.

    I don't know what poll that is, but I'm sceptical of the numbers. For a start, I'd be astonished if 32 per cent of Lib Dem voters wanted to leave the EU. The central plank of the Lib Dems is its pro-European credentials; I can't believe one-third of them support Brexit.

    I'm very unsure whether a new Labour leader who is more pro-European would get rid of Johnson and be able to resolve the Brexit crisis, when the country is split right down the middle. The situation is so fluid, and it seems the old certainties have gone. Labour are also in a very precarious position: a Remain PLP needs to navigate a policy around a Leave referendum win. They are also suffering some defections from politicians who want a more pro-European policy, but, at the same time, some of the Labour heartland areas are majority Brexit.

    The two major parties are both walking a tightrope, and undermining Corbyn yet again could ignite a civil war in the Labour Party akin to the one the Tories are experiencing.

    Any challenger to Corbyn would have to beat him in a vote of the Labour membership, and Corbyn has already been elected leader by a huge margin twice.

    Can't we just use that as the confirmatory second referendum? 😉

    51.4% Remain 48.6% Leave

    As I just posted on the Labour Party thread, the MP John Mann who quit Labour yesterday wrote in his resignation letter: "Anyone who has knocked on doors in Bassetlaw knows there is only one obstacle to winning what should be a landslide at the election and that obstacle is Jeremy Corbyn. I have therefore asked him to resign in order to let the party win power."

    More bizarre, 5% of UKIPpers want to remain?

    Proof positive that despotism has become a prime mover in world politics. Up there with Mugabe, Assad, Hussain and more or less the people who succeeded them... not to mention Trump and the GOP. Very dangerous times.

    Couple of the points we’ve made here regarding the backstop, customs border in the Irish Sea and the irrelevance of the DUP in the current minority administration being made here:

    Under the bus they go.

    Reading about a carve out of NI as an answer to the backstop (basically anotherbackstop). But would they have the votes?

    I would like to see all opposition parties remain in the commons to continue parliamentary business even if the tories suspend parliament. A sit in if you want, to show Europe that the government are alone in this.

    Niche but excited speculation...IF Bercow said he was physically going to stay in his seat and not budge, then Parliament wouldn't be suspended tonight
