So the main hall at #conservativeconference is a ghost town…

But the pro-European @euromove fringe event is packed to the rafters.

The times they are a’changing.
And overflowing, apparently. Should’ve turned up earlier. 🤷🏻‍♂️
Great that some media is there to catch it.

A pro-European event at Conservative Conference absolutely storming it.

Follow @euromove
And here they are - Tory big beasts David Gauke & Michael Heseltine…

…on the pro-European @euromove stage at #conservativeconference, telling a packed room of Tories just how screwed up Brexit has been for the UK.

👏👏👏 Follow @euromove & share.
And here’s that packed room again at #ConservativePartyconference, listening to David Gauke & Michael Heseltine on a pro- European platform, hosted by @euromove.

Make sure you’re following @euromove for more.
I’m told person who just turned up to the pro-European event, and decided to leave as he couldn't get in, said:

"you should have swapped with the event in the main hall, I think there's more here than in there"

Complete sea-change at
#ConservativePartyconference
Nope - Conservatives, that’s not where “OPPORTUNITY” lies…

Leave the main hall, go to the packed pro-European @euromove fringe event, learn about the Single Market, Erasmus, Horizon, Galileo and European Union membership…

…and then join @euromove.

“Brexit has been a fucking absolute unmitigated disaster.

And it will be a living nightmare until some politician has the balls to put a referendum in a manifesto and run on it and go back into the EU.”

Said ⁦@NoelGallagher⁩.

Yup - that’s spot on. bigissue.com/culture/music/…
Yes, I know he’s changed his tune since his North Korea comment, but isn’t that what you want?

Don’t you want people to change their minds according to facts and the world around them?

And credit to him that he calling out the impact on youths, when youths want Rejoin: Image
M I’m going to keep saying it…

Don’t slag off @NoelGallagher until you’ve signed up to be one of thousands of members of European Movement.

Politicians aren’t going to do anything on ditching Brexit & rejoining EU without mass citizen pressure.

If someone *outside* a polling station asks you if you have ID…

…the correct answer is “none of your business”.
And take a photo of them too.

They’re not being helpful. They’re trying to fiddle statistics.
If you do get turned away *inside* the polling station - at the desk where ballots are given out - due to no or ‘invalid’ ID…

… then ask for written confirmation from the clerk that you have been refused your ballot paper. Keep that as evidence that you were denied your vote.

When even Cabinet Ministers back away from Conservative branding… Image
And the Deputy PM would also rather be seen in the Greens’ branding than in true blue. Image
And it’s not just that series… it seems to be a new colour theme for them: ImageImage

Delighted to say that at ⁦@YorksBylines⁩ we have our first article written entirely by AI -

- and on the subject of itself.

Enjoy & marvel… yorkshirebylines.co.uk/business/techn…
That also means that Chat GPT now has its own author page on Yorkshire Bylines:

yorkshirebylines.co.uk/author/chatgpt/
Obviously this now leads to some interesting editorial policy debates/ decisions.

Chat GPT being such a clearly powerful article/ essay writing tool that it won’t be long before writers start using it to help their work.

How should that be declared? Can it even be detected?

What happened to the missing 45 MPs that supposedly also backed Boris?

My take:

1) If he had them, he would've run

2) He had a fake-it-til-u-make-it strategy to get more onboard

3) The undeclared were prob conditional on him passing the mark- so BoJo said "that's good enough"
4) Then when he couldn't get any more of those conditional MPs to declare openly, to set up the chain-reactions he needed - he realised he had to change tack to avoid egg on his face, having said he had 100

5) He tried to bully Penny or Rishi to join his ticket
6) But Rishi & Penny knew his lying and bullying ways, knew he didn't have the numbers and said no

7) Boris Johnson then needed an out. So he stuck with his 102 MPs bullshit, so as not to lose face, and blamed his failure on Rishi & Penny's failure to unify with him

THREAD:

The Met consistently refused to investigate Patygate despite overwhelming evidence.

They then launched an inquiry days before Sue Gray report release, delaying the report at key moment.

They issue 1 fine to Johnson for the least serious incident & include Sunak.

1/
Johnson tells friends that he's been assured he'll get no more fines (reported on 24/4 - so Johnson knows outcome *one month* before Met announce).

Met delay issuing fines to Downing St during local elections.

Met issue fines for Nov event, but not Johnson despite photos.

2/
When full set of fines come out, it is clearly disproportionately aimed at junior staff, protecting those leaders responsible for the culture and also present at the events.

--- I wouldn't want to make accusations about any individuals in Met, as you don't know who did what.
