HUGE NEWS!
The ECJ just ruled that the UK can unilaterally revoke article 50 without the permission of other EU member states.

There’s still some legal challenges left because the UK Government is fighting tooth, nail and kneecap, but we’re nearly there. theguardian.com/politics/2018/…
And here’s the full text of the ruling...
curia.europa.eu/juris/document…
And here's a reminder of the damage Brexit's already doing to the UK. Even if we stop Brexit, some of this will likely be irreversible. But it's a pinprick compared to the damage that actually going through with Brexit would inflict on us...

"Operation Figleaf 2: Electric Boogaloo" takes place on the roads of Kent this morning.

The farce, involving 79 lorries, is meant to simulate no deal Brexit congestion of 10,000.

Because a gathering of friends behaves like a stadiumful of people, right?
theguardian.com/politics/2019/…
The punchline? "The challenge facing the government and Kent county council was evident at dawn as an argument broke out between marshals about where the trucks were supposed to go."

*79* trucks, and they still managed to fluff it.

Give. Me. Strength.
Here's how things panned out, blow by blow (in the "being punched by a boxer" sense)...

Today, and all this week, you're going to hear a lot of talk about the Government's incredibly amazing 10-year Long Term Plan for the NHS...

... but not a peep about how Brexit will come along and rip its guts out on 29 March, like a lion taking down a gazelle.

#NHSLongTermPlan
If you're in any doubt as to Brexit's ripping power, take a look at this...
And a lot of the money is going to be snatched back very, very directly...

#Reasons2StayInEU
Freedom of Movement: we can control who stays after 3 months. We've always been able to but successive governments have chosen not to. FoM means we can quickly fill skills shortages in the NHS, teaching, research, hospitality industry, construction, agriculture.
Freedom of Movement also means we can fall in love with whom we like and not worry about being able to get visas, and know that our children are safe in their family home, be it in the UK or another member state of the EU. #LoveEU #Reasons2StayInEU
Freedom of Movement helps us with aged parents or relatives who live in another EU member state but who we need to care for, knowing it doesn't matter about health bills as the EU deal is reciprocal. #EU looks after our health and wellbeing. #Reasons2StayInEU.

EU diplomats shrug at what they view as U.K. hysteria over Canada+ or Chequers #Brexit debate. The EU says the choice was never the UK’s alone 1
EU viewsChequers as a U.K. government position. Not an end in itself. Brussels aim: to navigate between Chequers and EU red lines.. 2
Accusation I often hear in Brussels is that U.K. Brexit negotiators are fine wordsmiths but that there’s often little meaning behind the words 3
