@shoshanade @Knitknurse @krishgm SNP planned 2 motions to embarrass Labour. (They openly said they were trying to force Labour's hand.)

They dropped £28bn #NetZero motion to focus on #GazaCeasefire motion.

SNP's motion was heavily critical of Israel. Labour wanted wording more MPs (inclu. Tories) wld accept
/1
@shoshanade @Knitknurse @krishgm Labour put forward a motion.

Tory Whips got wind that enough Tory MPs would vote for it that it'd pass and so decided to play games.

Tories introduced an amendment late yesterday (weak vs SNP/Labour).

Normally, only 1 amendment is selected for an OpDay motion - the Govt's.
/2
@shoshanade @Knitknurse @krishgm MPs from ALL PARTIES went to see Hoyle & told him they & their families had received death threats if they didn't vote for a ceasefire.

At the weekend, Tobias Ellwood had had a baying mob at his home.

But Tories are spinning this as "Labour put pressure on Hoyle"...

Dear .@SirRogerGale

You asked a good question today: to what extent are new trade deals smoke & mirrors?

It deserved a better answer.

JJ was wrong on many points. Fox committed to rolling over 40 FTAs by midnight 27MAR19. THAT was what folk said cldn't be done, and it wasn't.
As we know, Liz Truss is STILL negotiating some of them over 2yrs later! Disingenuous of JJ to move the goalposts & pretend it was said it could NEVER be done. Those who know about trade know it takes time: roughly 2.8mths per FTA, but yes, should've been quicker for roll-overs.
Please read Fox's House of Lords evidence, when he admitted some roll-over deals are not as good, since countries are not prepared to extend the same terms to a market of 66m as to a market of 454m.

That's how trade deals work. How big is your market? What access will you give?

🧵 on why you should be worried about Cummings ordering MPs to betray YOU by breaking Govt's manifesto pledge to uphold or even enhance our food, #AnimalWelfare & #Environment standards —plus why MPs should listen to you and vote for the Lords Amdts to the #AgricultureBill🚜:
Let's look at the numbers:

92% of the British Public want current farm animal welfare standards to be maintained in trade negotiations with the US and other countries.

(YouGov for #WWF, Oct 2020)

#SaveOurStandards
78% of the British Public think that our animal welfare standards are high.

So why would we want to lower them?

(YouGov 28Sep2020)

MONDAY: #AgricultureBill is back in the Commons.

Most MPs are well-intentioned & #BackBritishFarming, but the truth is, unless standards are enshrined in law, there is a high probability risk farming will be undermined. .@Keir_Starmer understands this.

#SaveBritishFarming
.@trussliz thinks it's worth undermining our food, farming, animal welfare, countryside & Enviro standards to get trade deals, but has she weighed up the trade-offs? Trade deals gains are tiny compared to losses from trashing our standards —not just £ losses.

#SaveBritishFarming
Losses from trashing our food, farming & environmental standards are not limited to the 25-50% of British farms DEFRA expects to go bust.

There'll also be massive costs to public health (those who suffer + the #NHS) from food produced by methods banned here.
