On reports that Graham Brady is waiting for 50% of MPs to submit letters: I'm told he will act on letters from a third of MPs, not half.

Logic is that by 50% she has lost the confidence of so many MPs that it wouldn't need a vote.

Source says 1922 officers have agreed this.

It's on lbc now about the letters !
Changing the rules again

Energy price guarantee, reversed NI increase, crack down on militant unions

Criticising KS for doing nothing - eh, he's in the opposition!

Trying to attack KS again for not doing anything about the current problems 😆

What can KS do about any of it ?
It's a genuine question
I can't listen to them arguing today :(
I'm following it via the guardian live feed

Committed to keeping the triple lock.

Until they u turn on it !

She's deranged. Same old shite. She's now going to war on the strikers. Fuck it, I'm joining the picket lines near me.

Forget planning strike dates, everybody should walk out now.

Labour doesn't really support the strikers though , that is a bit of a lie.
When Sam Tarry supported the railway workers he was immediately suspended !

Carers' allowances getting no guarantee of rising in line with inflation.
Hmm whyever not? Could it be that they don't vote con?

She is shameless. Any why does the Speaker allow time to be wasted on fatuous friendly questions?

This government hates the disabled and by extension their carers.

Ahh we should have faith in her bcos she's taking action to clamp down on the militant unions.

Well, the RMT have asked for negotiations and they have been going out on strike for months and months , so are they intending to just let it carry on forever ?

Sadly, you could get arrested if you are not one of the striking workers. Secondary picketing is illegal (thanks to Thatcher I think).

Bit of mess. Truss has reversed Hunt's position on the triple lock.

A reminder that the current chancellor sold of the blood plasma service.

They can u turn I guess
Say this now and then change it
Just damage limitation at the moment

"As the PM finishes her exchange with Keir Starmer, telling MPs she’s a “fighter not a quitter”, one Tory backbencher turns to their neighbour and says simply “useless”. Colleague nods."

There is no possible justification - moral or economic - for treating pensions and working age benefits differently come April. We mustn't forget the context here: next year is set to bring simply huge income falls for lower income households

This is my view.

How did she do ?

It must be hard work being a Tory MP keeping track of which policies have been u-turned on and which are waiting for their u-turn.

Presumably everytime any of them do an interview now, it is going to involve playing back to them, them saying the opposite a week or two ago.

She looks feisty and energetic but ridiculous replies to QS

I'm sure that Ms Coffey has given her a few old meds out the back of the cabinet and a strong coffee today !
Sent her out fighting
