Picking up nervousness among cabinet types at decision not to hold amended vote on BJ’s deal yesterday. A straight vote on deal may never now happen, if the Speaker deems it a repeat of Saturday. If gvt tries to use legislation to secure approval, high chance it will be amended
These are the rules governing whether another vote can take place after Saturday
The assumption on Friday night amongst ministers (tho what do they know, No10 might ask) was that there would be a vote on a Letwin-amended revised brexit deal. Then by Sat morning No10 made clear they would whip to abstain / not divide house. Lots of people want to know why...

There is a curious plan emerging to corner Boris Johnson next week

The remain alliance have been discussing a nascent idea - but aren't sure whether to go ahead with it or whether it'll ultimately help them.

In other words, don't pay *too* much attention to this. Yet.

So:
1. After the election vote on Monday fails, hold a vote on an SO24

2. This SO24 would seize control of the order paper for Tuesday. This would be used to bring back the WAB on Tuesday(🥴) and try and push it through

Why do that?
Why do this?

- Letwin wants to be seen helping get Brexit thru
- 2nd Ref-ers want to attach 2Ref amendment to WAB
- Supporters of Common Market 2.0 also want chance to do amendment

But also

- *This possibly delays election vote until after Nov 5 meaning no 2019 polling day*

Great @ft summary on the contentious elements of the WAB bill
- Provision to prevent extension of transition, even tho few experts believe FTA will be done by Dec 2020
- Power grab for ministers over Northern Ireland
- A Commons vote on “divorce bill”

ft.com/content/afac5e…
- 8 years of ECJ jurisdiction over citizens rights (tho from memory that was in Theresa May’s WAB)
- Watchdog to report on Home Office handling of EU nationals; government very sensitive about claims there will be Windrush 2.0 and going out of their way to put preventive measures
Meanwhile in @thetimes @Raphael_Hogarth says

The bill will have to implement the new Protocol on Ireland which would introduce some customs checks on goods moving from GB to NI. That part of agreement is so new that officials will have had little time to work on the legislation

As a result of this weekend’s decisions this👇could well be what it comes down to.
If things seem complicated, it’s because there appear to be majorities in the Commons for several things - deal, deal plus CU, perhaps 2ref, maybe an election.
Wonderful lyrical accurate intro to his 9pm show by @JPonpolitics - spot on about where we are

#civilwar talk has ramped up ever since @poyus shined a light on reality of D-party divisiveness. Anons had no illusions long ago of the evil we face.
searching for #Never also brought up posts about @potus being insulated from #impeachment scams.

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout
Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.
#RandomThoughts
Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH

So, That happened
[#JiKook AU]

Jimin is a Beauty Youtuber; but not knowing what look to post in his next video, he takes on the challenge of dating his best friend for 24hrs instead. What happens when Jungkook turns out to be a better boyfriend than he thought?
Heads up:
—> please don’t reply; only quote
—> more narration than social media
—> don’t mind time stamps
—> I apologize for editing mistakes 😔
—>Oh and Jungkook and Jimin are the same age
—>Thank you all for reading, I hope you like it💜💜💜

Hello from Day 31 of El Chapo's trial.

More testimony coming this morning from Victor Vazquez, a DEA agent who captured Chapo in 2014.

The story of that capture is covered episode 6 of our podcast. Listen: open.spotify.com/episode/738NnU…
We saw this footage during Vazquez's testimony yesterday.

It shows Mexican marines and DEA agents on Black Hawk helicopters flying over Sinaloa toward a ranch owned by El Mayo, who was the target of an unsuccessful capture operation 11 days before they got Chapo.
Vazquez also narrated this footage. It shows Mexican marines and DEA agents raiding El Mayo's ranch on the outskirts of Culiacán on Feb. 13, 2014.

Mayo was gone by the time they arrived. They arrested two of his associates, which Vazquez said led to a large weapons seizure.
