A critical moment is coming - the moment it is confirmed that Parliament has been suspended.

At that moment, we must pour into London and lay siege to Whitehall. And STAY THERE until Parliament is restored.

No ifs, no buts. WE MUST NOT FAIL THIS TEST. #BlockTheCoup Yes, if #LiarJohnson tries to silence our Parliament, we will #TakeWhitehall. And, let us be clear: we WILL NOT be seeking permits from the "authorities". The "authorities" are those stealing our liberty. We don't want their permission, we want them GONE. #BlockTheCoup

There follow two alternative visions of November 1st. Please read them both then vote. 1/ Version A. Harriet Harmon, who was nominated by Jeremy Corbyn as Labour's first woman prime minister, calls a general election having first agreed a further extension with the EU. Corbyn is confident of leading his party to victory. /2

Here, have a flavour of the job losses caused by Brexit over recent days...

[thread] Hot off the blocks, Today's papers are full of the collapse of Laterooms.com and its sister company Super Break. 250 jobs gone at a stroke. Surely nothing to do with the slumping pound and an impending recession?

Cabinet Office: no-deal will lead to medicine shortages; disruptions to the food supply chain and panic buying; demonstrations and civil disorder that would stretch the police thin; and the risk that low-income groups will be hit by price rises on food, fuel and utilities... Sky News also has an official document setting out the threats to borders, the economy, security, data, Northern Ireland and individuals. “Law and order challenges” in Northern Ireland, gaps in security and difficulty for Britons returning from abroad are among predictions...

Okay, folks, we need to put names to the rabble collectively known as the #CabinetOfHorrors...

Johnson: #JihadiJohnson
Gove: #SlithyGove
Raab: #DemonicDominic
Mogg: the #HauntedPencil
Rudd: #AmberRudderless
Patel: #PritiVacant
Williamson: #PrivatePike As there are now two Dominics in the #CabinetOfHorrors, I propose the following supplementary nomenclature :

Raab remains #DemonicDominic
Cummings is #UnelectedDominic

205,000 job losses? But the UK has full employment, doesn't it?

Read this, then decide.

(Please share this thread)
amp.businessinsider.com/unemployment-i… The unemployment statistics are calculated using an international standard, but successive UK governments have "gamed" the system by promoting the creation of insecure and underpaid jobs. This is euphemistically called "a flexible labour market".

Things we'll say #afterBrexit... Remember when the pound was worth more than the dollar? #afterBrexit

Dear Leave Voters,

I hope you get to read this short thread.

If there is a "hard Brexit" it is inevitable that the UK will seek re-entry within a decade.

Here are four consequences that follow: 1. Britain will have to join Schengen, just as every other recent new member has. (It might even have to join Schengen as a condition of joining EFTA.)

Only the UK and Ireland are currently permitted to stay out of Schengen.
