Oh good and now PMQs fuck my fucking life parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/ef…
Great big avalanches of despair, having to watch this shite after a break. Feels even more deadening than usual.
God I can't wait to never have to hear anything from Jeremy Corbyn ever again.
Same goes for Johnson obviously, but one of the only positives of the gaping hellhole reality in which we find ourselves is that the former is an attainable short term goal.
Yeah I had to switch that off. Fucking dreadful racket.

It'll be quite heartbreaking if the alliance between Scottish nationalists and non-SNP Remainers, which has done good work for last few years, fractures. Doesn't have to be that way. We can show how to disagree with civility and mutual respect.
Remainers need to recognise how badly Scotland has been treated these last few years and acknowledge the emotional and rational case for independence. I think it's flawed, but it is consistent and convincing.
Nationalists need to stop treating every expression of scepticism or disagreement like some terrible London plot. And stop claiming they speak on behalf of the entirety of the Scottish people.

Not for the first time I've had to refer to my own book to find out how something works in Europe.
I used to get this when buying non-fiction books. You'd see something on the Spanish Civil War or whatever and think: Ah cool, if I read this I'll know everything about the Spanish Civil War.
And then of course, after a couple of months you've forgotten everything. But I didn't think the same thing would apply when you've written the fucking thing.

On Phillips and Nandy, the approach on Twitter is quite clear. Take the most contentious aside they've made, interpret it in the most unfavourable possible light, and then try to define them on the basis of it.
In both cases they've made comments or allusions that were probably unwise. Everyone messes up a bit. It happens.
But of course this is Twitter, so Nandy wants to beat up and arrest Scottish independence supports and Phillips hates ethnic minorities and trans people.

Parking Tusk for a mo... two more significant things re Commons maths:

Labour after Starmer visit to NI now in favour of a backstop

And of an A50 extension at PMQs
On Tusk - needless calculated display of trolling re “hell” - obvious point of it, combined with Varadkar was to try to communicate EU ready for & not to blame for No Deal and UK lack of readiness. Now up to UK, MPs, “pro Brexit” Labour to choose if it wants No Deal Brexit or not
The specific point about not planning for Brexit before vote though is not really controversial at all - as I was told the weekend after the vote...
“There. Is. No. Plan”.

LIVE: Grand International Parliament @CommonsCMS (continued) with @podehaye and @ICOnews parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/ef…
While we wait, @podehaye is responsible for teaching me that we could perform a Subject Access Request to Cambridge Analytica under UK Data Protection Act triggering domino effect that has yielded only criminal prosecution of CA/SCL by the @ICOnews Jan ‘19
In a prior @CommonsCMS hearing with Alexander Nix, it was revealed how he presented a fundamentally flawed understanding of international privacy law that has been continually reinforced by @ICOnews and it all started with @podehaye’s research.

“Facebook still has questions to answer” link to unprecedented global committee hearing starting shortly. Facebook sent its lobbyist. We know questions will be precise at this point but we don’t know whether Facebook will come to answer. ICO certainly will. I’ll thread here.
Long line to get in. People want answers. Press conference, which will happen in between Facebook lobbyist’s evidence and ICO Commissioner who produced damning report on Facebook, was already overbooked yesterday.
Funny. I sure hope no one thinks that’s what this is really about. There is a long list of tough unanswered questions already. Some of those docs may simply add context to FB thinking at the time GSR/SCL was given grace period of a year.
