A “Remain Alliance” should be guided by 3 principles
“An alliance built on these principles could have a seismic effect on British politics. It could stop Johnson dead in his tracks. With luck, it will make him run scared of an election in the first place” prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/any-r…
“Provided the Cummings plot to crash out before an election is stopped, the prime minister may decide his least bad option is to ask the people what they want in a referendum.”

PRINCIPAL 1. “DO NO HARM”
PRINCIPLE 2. THINK BIG.

Every seat where Labour or Tories do not support Remain should be fought wholeheartedly.

We can help one another when there is a single candidate thus maximising resources.
PRINCIPLE 3:- SAFE HARBOUR for Pro Remain Independents.

See this explanatory thread from @GeorgePeretzQC on the steps MPs should take when the Gov asks them to approve a Johnson Agreement.

HOWEVER remember the Benn Act requires them to approve “a Concluded Agreement under A50(2)”
It’s very improbable that such a doc will be completed
My estimation is that it is impossible for such a new WA is completed by 19th given the processes that have to be undertaken by the EU (inc translations into 26 languages).

Unless he reintroduces May’s WA in full

Happy for @GeorgePeretzQC @JolyonMaugham et al to correct me
3/. A reminder within @GeorgePeretzQC thread of the importance of also seeing the accompanying legislation necessary for ratification and implementation. This has, thus far, been kept hidden even for consultation.

I think that is abusive & grossly negligent

@ChrisGiles_

Could I ask a question that I know is being asked by others, on reading this by @anandMenon1 (remembering we are not economists). Did you reach your Johnson modelling of - £2250 PA per person by adding together 3/ and 4/ below :-
Income plus productivity losses?
2/. @ChrisGiles_

I am not clear whether 5/ in @anandMenon1 calculations were also taken into account (migration impact).
3/. @ChrisGiles_

ALSO is this the cumulative loss over 10-15 years. I.E. it starts off smaller (how small?) and gradually expands so that in 10-15 years this is what the gap between what our income would have been with EU membership and Johnson’s model.

Look what cropped up tonight following a lead from @ActMeasuresDoc . This is how Cummings found AiQ and,no doubt Leave EU SCL.

Cummings worked with an ex Director of SCL Elections Ltd for 3 years over the Business for Sterling Campaign.
Interesting to see who was behind Business for Sterling.

Our old mate Rocco Forte.

Lord Hanson (who has proved to be of a lot of interest tonight )

Lord Edwardes

independent.co.uk/news/business/…
This suggests he started working on the Business for a Sterling Campaign in 2001 (when did his Russian sortée end?

I had no idea he went in to become head of strategy for the Conservative Party in 2002

OK folks, hold onto your hats. Here we go. Starting my annual ritual of live-tweeting my reading of the @voguemagazine #septemberissue. Fyi: this will be happening on and off through today, because a) there's a LOT of the September issue, and b) I also have Saturday chores 🙂
@voguemagazine So...the cover. @taylorswift13. Very much admire her as a young woman conquering the sexist patriarchal music business, but - I would've loved to have seen someone not a 'standard celeb' on the cover, ideally someone older, and most ideally someone black. #liveolder #diversity
@voguemagazine The marquee inside front cover/7 pages/scent strip spot is taken by @YSL for Libre feat @DUALIPA. I can't even begin to think what that ad placement cost. A good less-obvious celeb choice, but again, as a dedicated daily wearer of YSL scent Nu, would like to see an older woman

THREAD: Speculation about the UK leaving the European Union without a deal has been at fever pitch. Dominic Cummings has suggested it’s too late to stop it, and No 10 is clearly gearing up for a No Deal Brexit outcome. (1)
In such a scenario, the 245,000 UK firms that currently only trade with EU countries will need to apply for an Economic Operator Registration and Identification number (EORI) to trade goods into and out of the UK. Less than 3 in 10 have. (2)
If firms registered at the current rate it would take until 2021 at the earliest for UK exporters to be ready for a No Deal Brexit, leaving EU/UK trade seriously undermined, putting hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk - just one example of the chaos that would follow. (3)

. @UKLabour is cratering in the final run up to #EuropeanElection2019
While @yougov was the outlier in the 2017 General Election, it was also the closest to picking the final result, mainly because they picked the upswing in turnout among young people. /2
While the latest UK poll results vary wildly (especially wrt #EuropeanElection2019) the trend is clear - disastrous for @Conservatives, worsening for @UKLabour and miraculous for @brexitparty_uk (aka @Nigel_Farage). /3

Let's talk about the purported enthusiasm gap facing Republican House members up for election this season. I've stated before that I don't have sufficient, or high caliber, trust-worthy data upon which to base a proper analysis. There is, however, indirect data we can tease...
It really just hit me over yesterday and this morning. We know the media lies and we know that the ONLY thing the Democrats have right now is their rage, rage against the dark night of their previous hellacious defeat. How is this data?
Well of course! They're all lying. Now, what is the basis of their lie, their psychological operation right now, their psyop? The answer couldn't be simpler. Money. They have - especially in certain key races - out raised the Republican establishment's fundraising.
