France "and other hardline countries". There is only 27 of them. How hard are they to list?

I'd expect more from the newspaper that have been announcing an imminent EU army for the last 11 years.
(I may have just made up that 11 years, but it goes back to some declaration or other before 2010, and they did report that particular event objectively to be fair.)
This is my favourite from the country who have shouted "We're prepared to walk away" for the last 4 years, and I don't remember anyone calling them out and saying "Well that will be a significant miscalculation".

And now the deal on the table that follows what the EU has done with its other neighbour countries is now being described as a "punishment deal".

Originally Harry came in with false law, and now he is arguing that we would have been held back because the EU countries agreed to take the longer route, but we didn't have to agree...

The whole argument is based around ignoring the counterfactual. These people are imbeciles.
Apart from the fact this is disingenuous because most of the response was down to a rubbish take on the regulation restrictions, which has been quietly swept under the table.
It just ignores the fact we weren't in the room when the decision was made. We don't know what the decision would have been had we been in the room.

The sign of a weak Prime minister. The honourable resign their posts while the dishonourable keep theirs.
If the press focus on Priti over this, in a week we'll be being told "we have moved on", but if they focus on failure of the Prime minister to sack her, things might be very different.
The Prime minister wants to be seen as a Churchill, while actually just being spoilt, entitled, and lazy. He knows he is all of those things, but insists on trying to cultivate this Churchillian figure who will see us through Brexit.

1. Hello, tonight’s thread is going to be focused on the recent article by @anandMenon1 and @jillongovt about how we ended up outside the Single Market.
2. It makes various claims which have merit, and some, like the EU’s attitude to bespoke deals, which are inaccurate, but it’s biggest failing is not recognising how the media is the main actor in this.
3. At the start of the referendum the government were very clear we would have the vote and then they would look at the various options available.

(They were required to publish those options as part of the referendum act 2015).

You decide....
None of this language belonged in the debate, and I cannot believe there are people in the BBC that want to close their eyes to it.
Here is a another. We have advisory referendum which means parliament can do what it likes, but apparently if you run for election to specifically do something you are accused of "Overriding democracy".

1. So, why does it matter that Joe Biden’s electoral college win does not rely on Pennsylvania?
2. You will notice that Trump’s focus on electoral fraud is directed at places like Philadelphia, and this matters.
3. Donald isn’t really a politician, he is a populist and that makes him distinct in terms of where he gets his support.

This is unbearable. Trump can still take Arizona, he can still take Nevada, he can still reflip Georgia, and he and his maga minions have built a heavy narrative around Philadelphia to try and stop and contest the vote in Pennsylvania in that event.
That is probably the route he is looking to, and the sooner Arizona and Nevada come in the better.
I suggest some people step away from CNN for a moment and watch Fox News to learn how a lot of people are digesting this election.

There are people pushing the Philadelphia conspiracies hard.
