Why has it taken 3 years for a politician to make the argument against no deal and against WTO terms as eloquently as Rory Stewart? Thank you, sir! @RoryStewartUK
Hundreds of thousands of people have seen my thread, but it's not the same as having it come from a serious Prime Ministerial hopeful.
Of course, he hasn't yet publicly taken the final logical step to say "Brexit will inevitably be worse than staying in the EU" but I don't believe that level of pragmatism can be faked. Only a matter of time...

A certain amount of tactical voting went on at the European elections, and it delivered 23 MEPs between the LibDems, Greens and Change UK. (Brexit Party 29, Tories 4, Labour 10, SNP 3, PC 1)

But what would have happened if the tactics had been much more extreme?
If we take the scenario that LibDems, Greens and Change UK ran as a single "Remain Alliance" (and generously assume voters would have come out in the same numbers as for its components) that would have netted them an extra 7 MEPs and cost the BP 2, Tories 2 and Labour 3 MEPs.
But two can play at that game. What happens if the hard Brexit parties (BP+UKIP) do exactly the same thing, and form a Hard Brexit Alliance to pit against the Remain Alliance? That takes 2 MEPs off the RA, 1 off Labour and 1 off the Tories.

A shallow dive into the infinite supply of appallingly offensive, sexist and racist remarks made by Boris Johnson. This deserves a whole lotta love, so you know what to do... RT, RT, RT!

First, a light warm-up with a truly car crash interview...
2002 newspaper column: "It is said that the Queen has come to love the Commonwealth, partly because it supplies her with regular cheering crowds of flag-waving piccaninnies."

2006 newspaper column: "for 10 years we in the Tory Party have become used to Papua New Guinea-style orgies of cannibalism and chief-killing"

Here's where I hope the Tory leadership contest will go (best case):
- Heat and light of the BBC, Sky and ITV (and C4?) debates exposes most contenders for the empty vessels they are when it comes to Brexit.
- Boris Johnson will come under sustained attack from all sides.
- We will be left with one hard Brexiter (inevitably there will have to be one to appease the Tory membership) who isn't BJ, and one moderate candidate.
- The moderate candidate pips the hard liner in the final ballot of members.
- We take the first step back towards sanity.
Likely? Probably not. But it's not just Brexit that will sink candidates. For instance Esther Mcvey's stance on same sex relationships and education is more hardline even than most Tory members, let alone the wider population!

@JamesDelingpole Two issues with your piece.
N°1: you assert, "Britain traded perfectly well for the large chunk of history it has spent outside the EU." This is a spurious argument. The EU didn't exist then. We are going from the best possible trade terms with the EU (SM+CU) to worst (#WTO).
/1.
@JamesDelingpole This will not just impact our trade with EU27 + EEA/EFTA4, but also with those countries with trade with via EU FTAs and those countries we trade with on WTO+++ terms, the '+++' furnished by the EU's 759 facilities that improve on #WTO terms.
/2.
@JamesDelingpole Only 16% of UK's trade is on WTO terms alone.

You're proposing that we dramatically downgrade 100% of our trade to WTO terms alone, at the stroke of a pen. This is insanity. It has taken decades to reach to position we're in today. No wonder Mogg says 50yrs to recover!

1. Was Fiji Water girl Kelleth Cuthbert serving at Golden Globes random? You won't believe what I found!

2. I had some help on this. @O_I_l_l_l_O provided some great info on defining Cuthbert's dress, designer, color and more. Many thanks!

So what's the big deal? A chic photo bombs the biggest names on the red carpet at the Golden Globes. Did you stop to ask, how is this possible?
3. The only actress that has really been upset about the whole deal is Jamie Lee Curtis. She was furious and released a statement: "'The sponsors of events need to get permission from people before they try to take their picture with them,'" Curtis wrote." aol.com/article/entert…
