“Brexit is a harder drug than any Class A substance. No chemical compound in an illicit laboratory can produce the warped logic and incomprehensible utterances that result from adopting it as part of your identity.”

“Labour's band of Brexity backbenchers seem to now be losing the plot after prolonged exposure. “
As for @EmmaLewellBuck ‘s extraordinary exhortation that MPs should get real so she and c10 other LABOUR MPs would deliver No Deal rather than no brexit.

Yes. LABOUR. Supposed to be dedicated to uplifting the poor. Protecting jobs. Raising working standards

Scorn on them all
4/ “Some of Labour's Leave converts, like Lisa Nandy, whose indecision on Brexit has been exasperating, have at least stated bluntly that no-deal is a "terrible, terrible idea".
5/ But for @EmmaLewellBuck , this is all secondary to stopping a man who has failed seven times to get elected as an MP from becoming prime minister.
6/Losing all credibility
"80% of MPs were elected on a manifesto that said we would deliver Brexit", the implication is that all Labour MPs should back no-deal over revoking Article 50. What does she think that would do to Labour's vote, when so many of its supporters are Remain?
7/
“It is a sign of how Labour's no-deal converts are contorting themselves that Lewell-Buck, one of whose main interests as an MP is tackling food poverty, is willing to back a measure that risks creating food poverty on steroids”

What venal and unstatesmanlike conduct.
8/

I am shocked beyond meansure that LABOUR MPs are either so dim or so careless of the well-being of the poorest for whom they are responsible because they are too weak to tell them the truth and do the job of a stateswoman.

Educate & persuade.
