#Tory conference on the horizon & the 'no deal' #Brexit vultures circle the carcass. All the usual suspects incl' Littlewood, Singham and @SteveBakerHW for the IEA. @isaby, @Jacob_Rees_Mogg, @DanielJHannan, @patel4witham, @andreajenkyns for @matthew_elliott's BrexitCentral......
Thick as thieves...... Hannan and Singham again, Bromund of 'Anglo-American Relations,' Steifel of the Cato Institute, for the Heritage Foundation. The IEA again, this time with Arlene Foster and Nigel Dodds of the #DUP.
Flies on a turd..... Elliott's infamous 'Tax Payers' Alliance,' with Priti Patel again, and, of course @LowTaxChloe. The Bruges Group, with Patel (again), Jenkyns (again) and @OwenPaterson.....
Now, with @Nigel_Farage as vice-chair, LeaveMeansLeave are attending, with #LeaveEU's Richard Tice, Tim Martin and Jacob Rees-Mogg (again). And of course, the shameless, self-promoting sociopath has his very own 'one man show.'

NEW - More German people, mystified at Britain's decision to leave the EU, "Can you comprehend why people voted for Brexit?" "Absolutely not, no, not at all, not even a bit" Some even picked up on the sinister censorship from another era...not a good look for a global Britain.

We'd encourage everyone to read this chilling piece on Dominic Cummings by anthropologist @WillBlackWriter- You'll begin to understand how and why Cummings concentrated his campaign's resources on a 7m section of the electorate and why they cheated
medium.com/@willblack_532…
Now here's Cummings dressing up what they did, in the 2016 EU referendum, with psychobabble, masking the fact that they lied and cheated their way to victory and fooling the unwary into swallowing Vote Leave's bullshit - no wonder he wouldn't appear before the @CommonsCMS
Very little of what Cummings says stands up to scrutiny, here's a small selection of him being demolished during his Treasury committee appearance - another reason he refused to appear before the @CommonsCMS hearings.

Lucas is right, “Parliament has made itself a laughing stock" With no effective oversight Parliament is an impotent bystander watching a government attempt to enact the result of an illegally procured referendum that's already caused immeasurable damage.

And everyone knows it.....we're just pretending they don't.
Even our colleagues in the EU......

1/ Tory #Brexit is not about immigration or strengthening our borders, it's about getting a tax haven. It's about slashing taxes on business and the rich, slashing regulations and workplace rights and privatising the NHS. A thread.
#PeoplesVote #FBPE
2/ Tory Brexiters have repeatedly called for regulations to be slashed, that means health, safety, food and environmental regulations. Often this is couched in terms of the requirements for a trade deal with the US. We all know about chlorinated chicken.
3/ Right-wing think tanks including leading Brexiter MEP Daniel Hannan's IFT and the US Cato Institute called for the NHS to be opened to foreign competition and a bonfire of consumer and environmental regulations

Jacob Rees-Mogg on ERG chickening our of publishing its grand #Brexit plan: “The truth is we reconsidered.”

The truth is you lot couldn’t organise a piss-up in a brewery. Much easier to criticise than to conceive workable ideas that don’t appear written in crayon, innit Jake?
Brexiters really are the proverbial dog that caught the car.

1. I cannot contain my loathing of Jacob Rees-Mogg, Boris Johnson and John Redwood et al. They are wreckers and liars manipulating the stupid and the easily led.

#Brexit thread.
2. When you've been in a political and economic union for forty years things get a bit complicated. There is layer upon layer of complexity and no one person understands it all and never will. It's massive and anyone claiming to understand it fully is lying or overconfident.
3. For instance, the aviation sector covers everything from landing slots to safety certification where often it is difficult to tell what is an EU competence and ans where the line of delineation is between the EU and the nation state.

1. They say the leave side lied in the #Brexit referendum. As it happens, everybody did. That's what politics is. Lying. It's a fight between you, me and the swamp. It's always a battle for the disengaged middle. This is why Jacob Rees-Mogg lies so brazenly.
2. The man is no idiot. The man knows his lies are transparent to anyone with half a clue. But he knows his target audience doesn't have any clue at all. The image he projects has an air of authority. It's about getting people to believe in him.
3. He certainly doesn't give a flying fuck about the people he is using. The disengaged middle are just a political resource to be used for as long as is convenient. No lie is too big so long has he gets his version of Brexit.

THREAD:

1. So who do I mean when I refer to the "Brexit Blob"? There's the usual suspects. Redwood, Rees-Mogg, Paterson and the other nonentity backbenchers, and then there;s the Tufton Street sock puppet think tanks and then the ayatollahs of #Brexit.
2. These will be people like Lawson, Ruth Lea, Hartley Brewer, Brendan O'Neill, John Longwoth, Kate Hoey, Gisela Stuart Low Fact Chloe, John Mills and so on and so forth. The ones who aren't lying are stone stupid.
3. These are the people who colluded to ensure that novbody outside the Westminster bubble got a voice in the campaign. That is why The Leave Alliance has struggled to win any exposure. Partly thanks to Hannan's sabotage early on - aided by the Bruges Group.

So, @Jacob_Rees_Mogg has had a go at Sir John Major for being part of the European elite because of #Brexit. I think it is probably the time to tell a little story about JRM, how he acts and what people think of him. Are you sitting comfortably...?
Back in the day, I started out as a research assistant at Scottish @Conservatives Central Office. As you’d imagine, I’ve a lot of stories I could tell but, sadly for you, you’ll never hear them. However, JRM has provoked this with his comments about Sir John.
Back in 1997, @Jacob_Rees_Mogg was the Tory candidate for Central Fife. His passage into the seat was helped by the powers that be so that he could follow the time-honoured path of so many with the right connections of fighting some unwinnable seats before being given a safe one.
