Wonder who he’s talking about?
Sadiq Khan announces that if he wins the upcoming mayoral election, he’ll introduce a green new deal for London. It’ll include a target for London to be carbon neutral by 2030.

Ex-Tory Cabinet minister Robert Buckland has been to the US to campaign for Democrats

He says Trump "flies in the face" of the conservative values of Eisenhower & Reagan

A Harris win means "a stable and reliable ally... when it is needed desperately"
politicshome.com/news/article/f…
Writing for us after a trip across the Atlantic, @RobertBuckland says: "It is my hope that the US avoids the chaos and uncertainty of a second Trump term, and that we have a stable and reliable ally and world power at a time when it is needed desperately...
"... Like many Conservatives who traditionally identify with the GOP in the traditions of Eisenhower and Reagan for example, supporting Trump flies in the face of those beliefs.

"The fact that former VP Dick Cheney is voting Harris speaks volumes for the state of things."

Exclusive: Nearly half of people (47%) want the UK to have a closer relationship with the EU, while 14% want to be further apart, according to a @Savanta_UK poll for @politicshome

It's the latest evidence of growing public support for a softer Brexit

politicshome.com/news/article/c…
The poll also found support for closer ties with the EU among 2016 Leave voters...

30% closer, 18% further away

"There's definitely a sense that the process has been bungled and that the benefits which Leavers were promised haven't really materialised" - Savanta's Chris Hopkins
Nearly a third of people believe Brexit is the *primary* reason for labour shortages in the UK, the @Savanta_UK / @politicshome poll found

Just over a third of Leave voters said the UK's EU exit was a reason for ongoing gaps in the workforce

I’m kicking off my Tory conference at a @CapX / @CPSThinkTank fringe event titled: ‘Can the Tories win the next election?’. Polling guru @jamesjohnson252 says that in recent days “the title of this panel has become easier to answer.”
.@jamesjohnson252 says that up until the Truss/Kwarteng statement the Tories still had a decent shot of winning the next general election. But something “very big” and “drastic” has happened since then: the Tory party has rapidly lost its reputation for economic competence
.@jamesjohnson252 says “it’s very hard to see how” the Tories stay in power at the next general election

Spot the difference

Jonathan Gullis' original Facebook post about the ECHR (h/t @patrickkmaguire)

...and his edited post

He was told that the Good Friday Agreement requires ECHR participation, @politicshome understands

Gullis is Brandon Lewis' PPS

politicshome.com/news/article/j…
A source close to Gullis said: “The Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement and its interaction with the ECHR clearly has to be respected as it is integral to the peace and prosperity of Northern Ireland...
... However, it is also evident that the overall role of the European Courts in the UK needs further consideration in light of their interventions in the UK’s own border policy last night which Government believes is entirely legal and in line with its international obligations"

Jonathan Jones QC, former head of the government legal department, writes for @TheHouseMag about the Northern Ireland Protocol Bill

"It is one of the most extraordinary pieces of legislation I have ever seen"

The legal position is "hopeless," he argues

politicshome.com/thehouse/artic…
.@SirJJQC: "How can an agreement willingly entered into only in 2020, at what the PM described as a 'fantastic moment', be already proving so disastrous as to represent “grave peril” to the country?

"The government statement provides no evidence for such an extreme conclusion"
He continues: "The bill – assuming it is eventually passed – is likely to take many months to get through parliament.

"If the UK really did face imminent peril, you might think the government would need to deal with it more quickly than that"

Exclusive: Material leaked to @politicshome this weekend sets up an almighty row when the government publishes its Northern Ireland Protocol legislation, expected tomorrow...
Tory MPs who oppose government's Protocol plan have this weekend been sharing this briefing doc setting out why they intend to vote against it

It says the bill is "damaging to everything the UK and Conservatives stand for" & "breaks international law"

politicshome.com/news/article/g…
The briefing, which is being shared by Tory rebels ahead of the bill being published, adds:

"Protecting our precious Union means persuading the moderate centre ground. We are alienating them by pursuing a reckless Bill that is toxic to the very swing voters the Union depends on"
