So apparently in the middle of all this shitshow, nobody noticed the Manchester Momentum Twitter directly adopting Donald Trump's fascist rhetoric?

https://twitter.com/McrMomentum/status/1063010166289940481

Are they just going to get away with this and everything's going to be chill?

Oh come on fella, this isn't fascist rhetoric and it isn't from Donald Trump's playbook. Trump wanted Hillary jailed for spurious conspiracy reasons, her mere existence offended the MAGA chuds. Manchester Momentum are making an exaggerated tweet about the body count racked up in the 11 months at the DWP. Now I'd rather we went for the man responsible for implementing the horrid disaster of UC, IDS, but whatever. It's silly and I'd not have tweeted it if I was running an official Momentum account but eh, yes, everything is going to be chill. Getting mad about a silly tweet by them is a bit low on the list of priorities in UK politics right now.

So May has put her best deal forward and it's clear it won't get through Parliament by a huge margin so she's hosed.

What is she waiting for? Why hold on?

My honest opinion is she sees this deal as a great achievement that nobody else could have done any better, and prides herself on being bloody-minded enough to see it through to the very end regardless of opposition. Mummy knows best. She'll go if/when she's forced to and not before.
