Quick reminder that most Tory MPs - not some, most - are deeply misinformed.
Their constituents have tried. They have been sent material constantly over the last two and a half years and regularly emailed, all of it to inform them about basic facts over Brexit. They've ignored them and read the Telegraph.
Echo chamber culture is not just about social media. It is in parliament too.

Theresa May sounds completely defeated, running through her speech fast as possible.
Although she always sounds completely dreadful so admittedly it's hard to tell.
Think May has removed the section on Welsh parliament.

Strongest bit of the letter to Theresa May from Tusk and Juncker. Still nothing like strong enough to do her any good.
It's my reading - maybe wrong - but I take that 2nd par to be suggesting that, as they have said it is supposed to be temporary, an ECJ case on a de-facto permanent backstop could be successful.
That's the closest you'd get to something legal I guess. But I can;t imagine many ERG types being convinced that it was safe because of future ECJ cases.

Telling that May retreats back to Brexit base: a speech in the highest voting Leave area warning of vote being reversed. She is incapable to reaching out to opponents.
She tried for about two weeks, with the winning argument that she had preserved... security cooperation. And that was it. Now back to the same tribal populist dogfight.
She may be boring and mechanical, but she is also the most divisive prime minister of our lifetime.

Access can not be gained without codes.
Mine are specialized. They were created by Aquino (recent reports are he is alive) and Jolly (deceased) who worked with him.
Show runner Henry Kissinger has partial access.
Diana (alive) used as Handler along w Hefner (deceased)...
This latest crimes against me over the past two and a half years (the most recent this in November involved people who had my access codes.
My system will become self destructive (Omega set off)
if it is messed with by those who don’t have proper codes.
That hasn’t happened, hence my belief this was authorized access and involved the still living named perpetrators.

LISTEN: John voted leave. He was concerned about the lack of jobs in his area & felt immigration had a big impact on that.

But here is a clip from him speaking to Adrian Chiles on radio 4 this week (a follow up to July 2016 Panorama) about his change of mind.

I watched the July 2016 programme at the time. This really gave me a good insight into why a number of leave voters from the West Midlands (& other areas) voted the way they did -almost in a cry for help.

Here is the full clip of what John had to say 2 & a half years ago.

The next 3 tweets give the whole section of @adrianchiles interview with John (which was summarised in the first tweet of this thread) when he returned and spoke to him for the Radio 4 programme earlier this week.

Here John explains his current life situation.

Here's the letter Theresa May *should* write just before rescinding Article 50. (If you agree with its sentiment, please share it - thank you.)

Extract: "I address you from Downing Street today with a heavy heart.

In June 2016, the people of the UK instructed us to execute on Brexit and leave the EU. That instruction came in the form of a referendum, the outcome of which we have been striving to implement ever since."
"Over the last two and a half years, we have had 16,000 civil servants working on Brexit, and have spent over £4 billion on Brexit preparations. That money could have been spent on the NHS, on our schools, on the police force, on so many other things."

Jo Johnson resigns from Government and calls for a second referendum on the EU. This could be significant.
The entire statement is worth reading. This is one of the most thoughtful and considered statements on Brexit I have seen from any MP, and whilst I still don't personally support a vote, his reasoning is crystal clear medium.com/@JoJohnsonUK/w…
Just going to tweet out some of the most devastating sections, starting with this one. There has been chatter on the subject before, but few have gone openly for the Suez comparison

An IDF delegation, led by the Commander of the Israeli Air Force, Maj. Gen. Amikam Norkin, presented the complete IDF After Action Review (AAR) of the downing of the Russian plane by Syrian anti-air fire to senior Russian military officers.
The AAR was conducted and presented in a thorough, detailed and professional manner. The comprehensive, accurate and factual details are known to the relevant professionals in the Russian military, and they clearly state that:
The deconfliction mechanism operated in the relevant timeframe (as it has been operating over the last two and a half years); the IAF did not hide behind any aircraft and that the Israeli aircraft were in Israeli airspace at the time of the downing of the Russian plane.
