Politicians definitely have some screws loose, grinning over an award for resigning is nothing to be proud of!

May Judges Public's Mood Correctly

Some really interesting results in Survation poll today re: attitudes to the Brexit deal:
- Voters support the deal 41%-37% - a huge +10 swing from 2 weeks ago
- Voters, incl. plurality of Leavers + Remainers, want MPs to vote for the deal (Leavers 48-36; Remainers 46-38)

Bizarrely, May might have actually judged the public's mood correctly (for once); namely that people are fed up/despairing over the continued uncertainty, and need this to be settled so that they can move on with their lives.

Unfortunately, May's deal (if it does pass) is but one step forward on a very long and winding road!

Theresa May Doesn't Believe Treasury's Forecasts

This is what Theresa May told me on Monday about today's Brexit forecasts. Basically, don't trust them, especially if they say staying in the EU is better than my deal. I wonder if @HMTreasury agrees with her? pic.twitter.com/S1vV5a0zGi

— Tom Newton Dunn (@tnewtondunn) November 28, 2018

She is of course correct, Treasury forecasts are bollocks!

Trump's Backing Boris

Trump is openly gunning for a no-deal Brexit and for a populist like Boris Johnson or Rees-Mogg to finish off Theresa May. This is full Bannonism. Not the behavior of an ally.

Oh dear. I have grave news. I seem to have accidentally brought down the government. Or at least chipped away at its majority.

Larry Nails It!

Current state of UK politics:
Government so inept it’s lost the DUP votes that have been propping it up.
Opposition so inept that despite the Government not having a majority the Government still won a vote last night.
Backbenchers so inept they can’t count to 48.

Cabinet is expected to continue until 7PM, therefore May's statement will be delayed.

David Delusional Davis

David Davis - tipped as a successor to Theresa May - tonight: "This is the moment of truth ... Cabinet and all Conservative MPs should stand up, be counted and say no to this capitulation." #BrexitDeal https://t.co/3H01SZ7g09

— Christopher Hope (@christopherhope) November 13, 2018

Whilst Davis may well be right about May's plan, and whilst it is also quite possible she will fail and be kicked out of office, his belief (or rather his media chum's belief) that he will be leader is a bit of a stretch!
