"An aide to a Cabinet minister just messaged me saying 'What's the point in appointing a PPS to the Home Secretary if the Home Secretary's in No.10 calling on him to set out a timetable to go?'" Ailbhe Rea, New Statesman, on the latest from inside Downing Street. #Newsnight

If you thought Rachel Reeves was historically unpopular as Chancellor just wait til you see Ed Miliband have a crack at the job! After he’s been stunningly inept as PM for a few months.

This also happened at the Basilica of Saint Denis, where again it was achieved without affecting the appearance of the building. The roof structure is concealed behind the vaulting and has no aesthetic significance, so it is hard to see what is lost.

When the roof of Notre Dame burnt down, the French authorities faced a dilemma: replace it with a frivolous modern design, or reconstruct it with timber from the original forest. They eventually chose the latter. Nineteenth-century architects saw this as a false dichotomy. When the roof of Chartres Cathedral burnt down, they replaced it with a wrought iron structure that is visually indistinguishable (unless you actually go into the loft), but invulnerable to fire and rot. It is interesting that this rather obvious option – restore the building's beauty while also getting the value of a brilliant modern technology – is now overlooked.

There is truth in this. There are absolutely decent Labour MPs like Rosie Duffield, Karl Turner and Jon Hinder who stuck their necks out opposing the PM on principle. None are the cabinet schemers behind the latest Game of Thrones antics. And it is for that reason the public feel sympathy.

"What Labour have to be careful of is the public actually starting to feel sorry for Keir Starmer..." LBC radio host, Iain Dale, tells @vicderbyshire callers to his show are on the Prime Minister's side. #Newsnight

@kehcafeh I think the boarding school experience is very different from the uni experience where they generally treat you like an adult. Can’t speak to Oxbridge though maybe they have shared rooms because the colleges are so old

The media feeding frenzy today - in particular - has been a disgrace. Egging on Labour MPs in some sort of bid for chaos/excitement/column inches/podcast stats. This isn’t a game or a spectator sport. It’s the running of our country. Shameful.

No 10 fights on. It seems they’re pressing ahead with backfilling PPS roles vacated by those who’ve called for the PM to quit

Accepting a PPS job tonight is rather like taking the role of chambermaid in third class after the iceberg hit the Titanic

Don’t recall ever believing this country was this forlorn. Institutions rotted out, ungovernable, cultural capital poured away. And no visible grounds for optimism.

Completely unreserved apologies to anyone I offended with the earlier photo I posted - I simply googled coal meme and that one came up.
