Boris Johnson's face is remarkably pink. Liquid dinner?
"Oppo-opposition"

Does seem to be slurring a lot.
He is off his tree.
The utter state of him!
Starts fiddling with the microphone. He's ripped.
Now he's stuck it in his own face. Shameful, shameful, shameful performance.
Corbyn: "I realise the desperation of the Tory party when they're reduced to rearranging the microphones on the Titanic." Reasonable 🔥 considering he had to ad-lib it.
If nothing else, Boris Johnson is making Corbyn look like a statesman.

Testing a few ideas...

"Fed up with Brexit? Vote LibDem to make it stop."

"Worried about the impact Brexit will have on your business? Vote LibDem to make it stop."

"Worried about medicine shortages after Brexit? Vote LibDem to make it stop."
Somebody with more PR savvy can do much better, but there's potential for endless variants.
"Want to keep the Union together? Vote LibDem and stop Brexit."

This is an out and out lie by the Treasury.

Right now I can already go to the EU and fill my car with booze until the axles threaten to break. And then bring it back into the UK without paying any duty, so long as it's for private consumption.
After Brexit that will no longer be possible. So we'll drop from a system with no quota to one with a very tight quota.

But there's an extra electioneering fiddle. HMRC will forego the alcohol tax on booze sold on the Channel crossing so it will be cheaper than it is now.
They are effectively subsidising cross-channel booze purchases to the tune of several hundred million pounds of lost duty revenue a year.

So currently you buy as much alcohol as you like anywhere in the EU and the duty is included so you can bring it back duty free.

Thoughts on the "new" LibDem Brexit position that they will simply revoke A50 if they get an overall majority [new part] or back a referendum with a remain option and campaign for remain if they don't...
1. It's the logical end state for a party whose slogan is "Stop Brexit"
2. Is it an inclusive offer across the entire electorate? No. It leaves out those who still want to Leave more than they want to get on with all the rest of the things we should be doing
3. But it is the first time the 48% (now probably more) will have an option *just for them*
4. Since we have to make do with the wholly inadequate FPTP electoral system, they don't need to win over a majority of the country, not even close.
5. Clarity is like gold dust in the Brexit debate. The Brexit Party has it. Now (hopefully - needs approval) the LD do to.

Behind Trump’s craziness, there’s always corruption.

Example: Trump is pressuring a gov’t agency to contract w/ top GOP ally/donor for his wall.

Trump has waved off worries about contracting procedures & the use of eminent domain, saying just “take the land.”
⚫️DarkDays2⚫️

If orders are flagged as illegal or unworkable, Trump said he wd issue pardons, if they break the law

DHS "no longer considers children of US gov’t EEs & US armed forces members residing outside the US as 'residing in the US' for purposes of acquiring citizenship”
⚫️DarkDays3⚫️

In other words, if you are a US Service member stationed overseas & you (or your spouse) gives birth on foreign soil, your child would not be eligible for US citizenship.

Can the Trump adm sink any lower than threatening to deport sick kids? Must leave 33 days.

‘Left-Wing Criminologists’: A Thread (Clickbaity subtitle: You’re Doing Public Criminology Wrong)

27 tweets follow, if my maths is correct. You might want to grab a cuppa.
1) Recently, I’ve been seeing a lot of (unsurprising) critique on Twitter of Boris Johnson’s comments in the Mail on Sunday about opposition to his proposed criminal justice reforms from ‘left-wing criminologists’.
2) Broadly, responses I’ve seen have tended to boil down to “we’re not left-wing, we advocate evidence-based policies.” This is to miss the point of what Johnson is trying to do here, and to be honest, is also a little disingenuous.

Let’s talk about Boris

One of most disreputable, toxic, selfish politicians I’ve ever met. As Tories choose between British Trump & ex-Health Sec who’s mission was to destroy health service, let's remember why #Johnson is #UnfitForOffice
