Addendum:

2) Categories: I've tried to use categories from the 2017 Manifesto and added some new ones. Some force fitting was done to avoid too many pages.
Correction:
Thread 14 of 14: Text should be "Vote on that deal or remain"
Correction

Don't all yell at me at once but I see too many Labour supporters being optimistic about how we'll do in the upcoming General Election. I think we have real issues to worry about.
Before you yell disagreement, at least read this Thread to see why I say that..
1/10
The optimism for Labour is mostly based on:
1) What happened in 2017: the polls were wrong, Labour added on c.20% to what the polls were saying, we'll do it again.
2) Once we get the fair airtime a General Election requires, people will see our policies and Jeremy properly.

2/10
3) It's the policies that will do it. People will see beyond Brexit at the sort of country we want going forward and will pick Labour

Here's why I think these 3 points don't apply as much they seem

3/10

There it is, confirmation Johnson wants to shut down Parliament. What will those Tory ministers who said they would never stand for that, like Hancock, do now that they are in Johnson’s Cabinet?
Exhibit 1- Matt Hancock, currently Sec of State for the NHS.
Here's what he said about proroguing when he was in the Tory leadership campaign. Lying then or now?
#Prorogation
Exhibit 2 - Nicky Morgan, currently Sec of State for Media and Culture
Here she says she would support legal action against the prorogation of Parliament. Lying then or now?

Thread on how Swinson and Umunna have made a No Deal more likely by removing one of Johnson’s excuses for not letting a No Deal happen..
1/12
As much we may criticise Johnson, he isn’t dumb and his own political reputation matters mrore to him than anything else. He knows a No Deal would be a catastrophe and he knows that once that carnage becomes clear it will politically destroy him and the Tories.
2/12
Johnson’s strategy from day one as PM as been to prepare for blame shifting. On the one hand he wants to show he would go for a No Deal and ‘do Brexit’ to shore up the Brexit side of the Tory vote. At the same time he needs to politically hedge for the disaster No Deal would be.

#THREAD to try to make sense of #Italy’s govt crisis: PM Conte will address the Senate at 15.00CET today. No vote of confidence is scheduled but it could be called by the League UNLESS PM uses the speech to announce his resignation. The latter is the most likely scenario. 1/n
If #Conte resigns Pres Mattarella will hear representatives from all parties & decide whether to: a) let PD/5Stars form a new govt; b) install a caretaker govt to pass the budget; c) call a snap election. Italy hasn’t seen a general election in the fall since 1919. 2/n
The reason for avoiding elections in the fall is the national #budget: deadline for approval is Dec 31. #Italy must send a draft of its 2020 one to @EU_Commission in early Oct. Running a campaign, an election and installing a new govt in the midst of it all is no joke. 3/n

The Conservatives are "prepared to fight at the polls on their traditional territory of public services, schools and the NHS" - theguardian.com/politics/2019/… ... and what would that traditional territory be?
X : Labour uses spin just as much as the Conservatives.
Me : A fair shout for the old Campbell / Blair days but those days are behind us. Anyway. let us talk "NHS new money" - channel4.com/news/factcheck…
X : The Conservatives have announced record investment in police.
Me : After spending a decade cutting police numbers by 21,500 - theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/j… - you can't just add 20,000 officers. The problem is the infrastructure - buzzfeed.com/hannahalothman…

Thread. Most of the homeless people that I speak are homeless as a result of #UniversalCredit Credit and failed esa and pip assessments. This will continue untill universal credit is stopped and scrapped.
This won't change until the public vote out the @Conservatives in the next general election. If they win the next general election they will rush through all delayed universal credit plans
They don't care if they make a couple of million self employed people unemployed. Neither do they care if disabled people are forced into homelessness. They also don't care if children are separated from their families.

Very long thread:

I announced a Twitter break at the weekend, in reaction to @TracyAnnO rebuking me for asking some firm questions of her friend @davidschneider
David has long been an enabler and supporter of Jeremy Corbyn and in the tweets that Tracy objected to I was making clear that in my view David therefore has some personal responsibility for the appalling & escalating crisis that has engulfed British Jews since Corbyn’s election.
I also criticised David’s tweet of just last week that used the Israel/Nazi trope.
After nearly 4 years in which I have sought to both educate myself about the nature of the problem (left wing antisemitism) and to play my own small part in combating it

1/ Why is @UKLabour not opposing #Brexit when Tory Brexit is in tatters & 72% of the Labour supporters do oppose Brexit ? This is a very intriguing question & it feels counterintuitive, especially since most Labour MPs oppose Brexit too. But is it?
2/ Despite Labour party & and supporters opposing #Brexit, supporting it is the surest way to to winning the next general election. And this has nothing to do with wanting to attract Leave voters at all - nothing at all.
3/ There is only one Brexit scenario that will keep the @Conservatives in power: A hard #Brexit that at the same time is a success. And we know how likely that is. All other scenarios will almost automatically lead to a @UKLabour Govt.
