@JimMFelton Doesn't that contain a possible case for America being an absolute bellend as well? Retitling of book needed?

@SexyTroopLover This is unbelievable, outrageous and awful - the kid has been brainwashed! There is no way a 9 year old boy considers homework to be his priority here!! 🤣

@YorkshireGlover Johnson's problem will be the more he appeases the ERG, the more likely he'll lose Labour and the 22ish dewhipped MPs. To get it through Parliament he'll need Labour's support, but in doing so, the ERG will howl to the moon about it.

@YorkshireGlover Think ERG will only support Johnson if they feel the Backstop is "removed". The absolute detail on his Irish plan would be scrutinised - my impression is the ERG can make mountains out of the smallest thing - check Fysh's timeline!

Boris Johnson played to the gallery with all of his "do or die", "no ifs, no buts" and "I'd rather die in a ditch", but if this goes the way it looks to be going, he's going to have to do some serious back-pedalling on all of that. twitter.com/tnewtondunn/st…

Varadkar suggests a deal will take longer than the 6 days left before the EU Council next Thursday, and it might only be "by the end of October". That leaves no time to pass it through Parliament.

@YorkshireGlover You're forgetting that there is the DUP, the ERG and the 22 MPs Johnson kicked out of his party that will also need to be appeased. Don't see that Labour have to "respect" anything - they're the opposition and have their own red lines in their 2017 manifesto they're sticking to.

@ytfcbadger Only has to pass Withdrawal Bill... #labour will have to decide if they really do 'respect' result of Referendum or not. Fisheries Agriculture etc. can follow during the 2 year 'interim' period. There are already a number of EU Exit bills that have been passed into Law.

@YorkshireGlover I think he'll need much longer than that. He's got to get it through the Commons and Lords (no guarantees with either!) and they also need new Trade Act, Immigration Act, Fisheries Act etc. This was always the insanity of the Oct 31st hard stop.

@ytfcbadger He'll claim its sensible to extend a week or 2 as a deal is close.... seem to remember that was Hunt's line in the hustings.

@SkyNewsBreak Don't tell them anything about the spying charges until they've given you some sweets and let you watch a Peppa Pig DVD!

@Conservatives And of course, as with ADSL, the FTTP development will primarily benefit those who live in cities. The costs/benefits to those living in rural communities will continue to lag behind.

@Conservatives To be clear, the "new infrastructure revolution" will be that of BT Openreach, Virgin Media etc as private companies under the FTTP initiative - there is no Government investment to provide this.

@bbclaurak It's no wonder people are confused about Brexit, when a leading BBC Politics person keeps on suggesting that something is "contentious" when damn near every legal person I've read has said it would break the law.

This is really contentious - Johnson's allies (and some MPs) believe he can write a political letter complaining about the situation that doesn't infringe on the legal letter that the Benn Act requires the govt to send - but there will be a big row if he does

@ytfcwattsy @Sweeter1984 Yep - County Cup Final. That was Sturrock's problem - he saw some of these players against Milton Keynes (5-1 defeat) then saw most not give a fuck vs Taunton, and so based on his limited view and his budget said "off you all go then".

Oh please, do we still have to continuously have the ‘I rated Kieffer Moore but you didn’t’ debate every time he does something?! Time for everyone to move on. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ #ytfc

@ytfcwattsy @Sweeter1984 I am amused given that when he was released in 2015, there was barely a murmur as he left the building. Now in 2019, you can't move for people insisting they always knew it was a big error. 😂

@Sweeter1984 But if you didn’t I’m fairly sure the rules of the never ending debate are you have to declare why he wasn’t good at the time! 😂😂😂
