The right are going for Geoffrey Cox because, as Attorney General, he refused to sign off on a no deal Brexit after the Benn ammendent passed. Image
He is a great performer in court, fighting with judges, waving his wig around.
He's certainly not the worst of that bunch, he earns his money because he is one of the top people in his field.
He could walk out of parliament tomorrow and earn 10 times what he gets now.
Cox is not a guy who, like Patterson, earns money from being in parliament.
He loses money for being in parliament.

The last big international protest in Scotland was the G8 at Gleneagles in 2005.
A couple of stories
A few of us noticed that there was always a large police presence outside Borders bookshop in Buchanan Street.
1
I asked and was told that the police had intelligence that some of the protest groups used the slogan "No Nations, no Borders," so they considered the bookshop under threat.
2
The second one. At the march at Gleneagles itself, a group of about 50 young people, dressed as clowns, (The Clown Army) wandered into a field outside the venue.
The next thing you know.

Back at court 4 of the Royal Courts of Justice for the second day of the Julian #Assange extradition hearing.
Proceedings due to begin at 10.30
Edward Fitzgerald QC for Mr Assange rises to begin his submissions.
He tells the court his client won't be attending today by video link.
Mr Fitzgerald says that US assurances that #Assange will not be put in a "supermax," prison do not deal with the effect actual extradition and ant detention will have on his client.
