Would the Tories really intentionally manoeuvre themselves away from a position of power just because they know Brexit is going to be a disaster? They seem like the 'power above all else' types.

If you put bollards on a bridge then some oval office would just mow people down by the side of the road instead. If you put bollards by the side of a road then they'd plough through people crossing Oxford Street or whatever. It's not really something that can be fixed.

They're both in the basement of the same building so the ceilings are identical. I agree with it not being The Sheaf.

I am kind of interested why there was apparently a Sky News cameraman with an OB-capable setup on the scene apparently immediately after the event, and he's moved from just outside London bridge station down to St George's without actually seeing anything.

A lot of news gathering now is a camera with a 4G bonding uplink thing clipped to the back of it.

Van hit people, people in van got out and went on a stabbing spree. The Vauxhall incident was unrelated.

Isn't the alternative to a "shoot to kill" policy a "let the firearms officer make their own decision" policy? Like people are getting bent out of shape because Corbyn favoured the person pulling the trigger to be able to make the decision. Or have I horribly misunderstood?

It was always quite insulting to the public to make claims about getting tough on terrorism while you've been the party in power for seven years. I'm glad there's now a desire to call her out on it.

Jamie Ross of Buzzfeed, who had been v positive on Corb's speech earlier, was saying that in light of the concert and the reaction to it, he feels the speech may have been misjudged. I guess we'll see in the morning, but what else, at four days out from an election, can you do?

The concert hasn't changed the Tory approach to things so how does the speech attacking the Tories look bad now?

I agree. They are doubtless already sharpening the knives, but even the most committed of them knows that Brexit is going to be a poisoned chalice.

I personally see them letting/making May stay on until the Brexit negotiations are done, in order that she takes the blame for failing to achieve the fantasies that Brexiteers hold. Then one of them swoops in, blaming her for whatever unequal treaty we eventually sign, which is then treated as a fait accompli.

As much as I am rock-hard over the idea of May being very publicly ejected by Tory party colleagues, anything that makes PM Gove or Boris even slightly likely should be avoided.

People don't know what shoot-to-kill is, they think that opposing it means that you'd instruct officers to shoot-to-wound during an active terrorist incident. The Tories have no interest in correcting this because it suits their Corbyn = bad narrative.
