Mogg is the dumb person's idea of a posh smart person.

The Jordan Peterson of the 18th century.

I think it was on the Bugle podcast I heard someone describe Mogg as 'Our Crocodile Dundee. An outdated backwards-looking caricature of our national stereotypes. Only with the unfortunate additional downside of being real.'

If this bit about Labour voting through the No-Brexit bill and then just sitting on their hands watching Boris flounder while abstaining from an election vote, that would be hysterically funny.

quote:

In the Commons Nick Boles, the former Tory who now sits as an independent, is speaking now. He recalls the day he woke up in hospital in 2017, where he was being treated for cancer, and got read to go to the Commons to vote for article 50 to be triggered. His blood cell count was low, and there was a high chance of infection, he says. But he was driven to the Commons to vote because he believed the referendum vote should be respected.

He says he has voted for a Brexit deal. But what he will not do is accept a no-deal Brexit.

He says taking this stand lost him the support of his local Tory association, and led to him leaving the party. But he has no regrets. He has put what is right for the country ahead of his self-interest. How many members of the cabinet can say the same?

He says he is the only MP in parliament sitting as an independent progressive conservative. But he urges other MPs to join him so that they can provide a new force in parliament.

Those are some very, very powerful brainspiders.

Guardian posted:

Thornberry says Labour will not vote for general election until bill ruling out no-deal Brexit becomes law

Emily Thornberry, the shadow foreign secretary, has just told Sky News that Labour is desperate to hold a general election. But, asked if Labour would support a vote for a general election tomorrow, she says the party might abstain, or vote against. She says the party wants to see the bill ruling out a no-deal Brexit on 31 October passed first.

Under the Letwin plan, the bill could become law on Monday.

No 10 has been saying that, if the government loses the vote tonight, Boris Johnson will push for a vote on an early election tomorrow. But without Labour�s support, he will not get the two-thirds majority required under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act for the vote to be operable.

Adding to positive news in the thread, It was announced today that I have been awarded a grant that is generally considered to be one of the more prestigious ones in my field, to do amazing research at a really nice UK University.

It's from the European Research Council and if we no deal or if the deal doesn't include ERC membership, I'll be in a world of poo poo. :eng99:

Yes, he's actually Sir William Cash but he's a oval office so I'm intentionally messing up his name because I'm a child.

Soubry giving that rhetorical blowie to the Tories. loving gross. She's meant to be the leader of an opposition party!

And after Soubry it's Dominic Grieve. Tories all the way down.
