1/ Some thoughts about David Davis resignation. #DavidDavis #Brexit bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
2/ his select committee appearances conveyed the impression of a blustering, lazy, make-it-up-as-you-go-along chancer. theguardian.com/politics/2018/…
3/ how could Davis justify his ministerial salary? 'David Davis has spent just 4 hours in talks with Michel Barnier this year' ft.com/content/9e3aac…
4/ in short, Davis has promised big, achieved little and to be honest should hand back his Ministerial salary for the past year.
5/ Having Baker leave too is a bonus as #SteveBaker pumps the most egregious ERG-Vote Leave nonsense into government uk.reuters.com/article/uk-bri…
6/ but to be honest the hard Brexiteers were always going to jump ship before crunch time so their undeliverable promises won't be revealed as 🦄 poo.
7/ suggest government hire us @EFTA4UK as consultants, we will sort Brexit for you. /End

Controversial thought: MPs shouldn't be handling Brexit. 1/ #brexit
2/ While many MPs are gifted and talented individuals, few seem to have the required skills and knowledge to take brexit forward.
3/ it is a mammoth task that requires knowledge of EU law, treaties and institutions, international trade and customs, international bodies, international law and more.

1/ Ten years before the EU referendum happened, a "Charity" was set up.
2/ The Taxpayer's alliance Research Trust. This later changed its name to the 'POLITICS AND ECONOMICS RESEARCH TRUST Company number 05982645'
3/ The company/charity has had many figures join and leave over the years, but what's notable is that it is a veritable who's who of 'hard leave' figures. Lets look at a few.

1. We present to you; for your humble consideration two futures. Each at this moment both equally likely.
2. Future one: the UK strikes the best deal with the EU based on efta precedents. We join Switzerland and Iceland in efta.
3. The UK goes from strength to strength signing trade deals around the world. We take back essential sovereignty.

I’ve just read the transcript of Arron Banks’s Marr appearance. Some thoughts below. (A health warning: whatever Banks says, his corporate structures are highly convoluted. This is why he has struggled on occasion to explain them himself.)
The transcript is here. Banks is keen to avoid any suggestion that Rock Holdings – one of his two Isle of Man holding companies – had anything to do with his Brexit campaign, because the IoM is not a legal source for donations. news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/bsp/h…
There are a few things I can’t make add up. Leave.eu told the Electoral Commission that Banks used Rock Services only as a proxy or third party. Now Banks says the Brexit funding was “generated out of insurance business written in the UK”.

Thread: How are UK online news outlets covering #Brexit in 2018? An analysis, with data and charts!

Round 1: **DExEU vs Shadow DExEU**

Like the piece on referendum overspend, all conducted in a personal capacity. I mean, how else would I spend my weekends and evenings...

1/
This is intended to be the first of a selection of pieces of analysis quantifying different aspects of #Brexit coverage in UK news media, so I’ll be covering different angles in future threads.

See appendix for methodology. 2/
Firstly, looking at 2000 #Brexit news headlines from 9 news outlets since Jan 18, I’ve searched for each of the current and previous @Conservatives DExEU ministers and their @UKLabour shadow counterparts. 3/

BREAKING: Dover Brexit Impact Document obtained by @SkyNewsPolitics shows plans for Lorry Park on the M20 for “many years”
Dover clearly EXTREMELY nervous about traffic mitigation measures not working “there does not appear to be a Plan B”
THREAD: The report is pretty excoriating about central government and the lack of clarity on Brexit “We are unaware how the government will be allocating funding”

HUGE NEWS: Electoral Commission finds Vote Leave broke law during #Brexit ref, issuing fines and reporting 2 people - Darren Grimes + Vote Leave's 'responsible person' David Halsall - to police. Full report is stinging ( electoralcommission.org.uk/__data/assets/…) Here's some key points (thread)
Just before the Brexit vote fashion student Darren Grimes was 'given' £675k. In fact this money was spent on his behalf as @openDemocracy showed last year opendemocracy.net/uk/brexitinc/p…. Elec Comm found that this spending was part of a' common plan with Vote Leave." Which is illegal
Before he teamed up w/Vote Leave Darren Grimes had raised the princely sum of £21.51 - then he got £675k. Grimes told us this was his spending. EC found this 'was substantially inaccurate reporting that has resulted in a lack of transparency about whose spending this was.'
