Dear @Theresa_May,
Stop playing games with the UK people. You won't win.
It's not either your deal or No Deal. Parliament and the People know that!
#Marr
And now you're trying to scare Parliament and your own citizens about a mess that is completely under your control.
It's like pointing a gun at a crowd and saying "Guys I'm gonna start shooting soon, you should all run for your lives, sorry".
It's shameful
Do you now what's messed up? You'd think that the metaphor above was an exaggeration of reality. Nope. Let's say a gun has 13 bullets, right? Now compare that with this:
bma.org.uk/news/2018/augu…
That is the British Medical Association saying that a no deal Brexit would be "catastrophic" for the NHS. So let's be blunt. I'm not sugar-coating this one:

No Deal Brexit kills a lot of people.

And we have a prime minister who says she will choose to let that happen.

Your doctors, nurses, midwives and GPs are all telling you Brexit is bad for your health.
Which do you love more? Brexit or the NHS?
#NHSLongTermPlan
If you love the NHS more, how do we best protect it?
We can protect it as an EU member. Brexit makes it vulnerable to people like Trump.
#NHSLongTermPlan
But they're saying more money is coming to the NHS. Do the numbers add up?

I don't have a party to run / election to win, so maybe it's rich of me to stand on principle; maybe I'm naive, but...
I'm not willing to pretend that a good Brexit deal is possible just because I'm scared people (who I should have won over on Brexit) might think I'm ruining it.
I get why some might choose that due to their own strategic priorities. But if we go down the path of "keep trying Brexit until every last person is convinced it can't work":
a) We risk crashing out.
b) People would blame the EU not Brexit #HowWeGotInThisMess
c) It's dishonest
🔻The Tories want to endanger the Belfast Agreement which the EU won't allow. And even this Brexit will be rejected.
🔻Labour's Brexit must meet the 6 tests. That means Single Market & Customs Union. Parliament would never approve that for the same reasons we're stuck now.

Barry Gardiner says a Labour Brexit would mean the UK would have a veto over the EU's trade deals, despite not being an EU member. More false promises about Brexit. This country deserves better.
He just proved that a general election now would be POINTLESS!
#Ridge
In fairness, Gardiner then goes on to say they'd put that deal to the people, but that deal will never exist.
That would put us in the exact same position we're in now, (no viable deal), but we'd have simply wasted several months.
🗣️"But he never said the word veto"🤭
"We would have a customs union" = Same trade deals. No customs checks as the same tariffs apply either side.
"Not a rule taker" i.e. we're not in any deals we don't like.
If we can say no for ourselves, then we can say no for the EU ➡️VETO

Did you watch #Marr today? Then please read this short thread on critical errors I believe @bbc made here, why it matters & why it's given @Arron_banks a prominent platform to deceive the public again
I believe it is important to keep asking Bank questions. But framing, context & format is crucial. Banks's PR chose live Sunday magazine show as his preferred format on morning he knew he would be facing significant new allegations from @ObserverUK
theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/n…
The new investigation by the NCA is just one @arron_banks is facing. The Met is investigating possible criminal offences regarding spending returns. And ICO is investigating whether Eldon insurance data was used by LeaveEU political purposes . This is from @commonsCMS report

12 whole minutes (from 40:40) of #Marr questioning Jeremy Corbyn on antisemitism. No really expression of remorse, apology or empathy - all are absolutely crucial to resolving the antisemitism issue bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…
Corbyn won’t even accept, after all that has happened, that the mural of Jews sitting on the backs of the oppressed is antisemitic. For people who say this issue is about being able to criticise Israel, it’s not. It’s about insight and empathy and Corbyn hasn’t shown either #marr
Corbyn can’t even bring himself to confirm that had he known members of Black September (who carried out the Munich Olympic murdered) were to be commemorated that he wouldn’t have gone. No insight or empathy. On this performance, he will never budge an inch

It was a Saturday Shoe Polishing Day this late morning. Started at 10am.
First, always make sure the shoe's verandah are brushed and blackened. Keep black, black. Brown, brown. Clear, neutral. It's essential.
Then you layer the leather with shoe wax as thinly as possible. In circular motion until it fades to a blur. Repeat at least 5 more time. Allow it to form a haze, and then take a lint free clothes to wipe it off. My left Florsheim Brogue in light brown uses neutral to keep color
