Can we laugh or cry yet?

Are you still sane?

Will this insanity ever end?

Agree RTB. This smells like a hot foodstuff which as suddenly started attracting vat.

Nothing will convince me otherwise that Sarah Vine has played the biggest blinder of all.

howabout Sky saying Dr Fox voted against gay marriage with Crabbe but Leadsome abstained, aye....

Liam fox doesn't accept that free market movement of resources is part of an economic union then instead thinks its some kind of new fangled political correctness .
Its interesting he thinks he can carry enough support to win....

May seconded by Justine Greening, who has just come out as being in a same sex union. JG also a Tory who grew up in a very working class area. Is this TM genuinely trying to reach out to the neglected parts of the country?

Jamie - I'd go with Dacre and Murdoch personally. How much would it be worth to have the pm as your puppet?

Don't know whether or not genuine, but certainly well played. I did wonder about JG's timing.

Am told @angelaeagle may not announce candidacy at 3, so MPs can have "period of reflection" about why they have lost confidence in leader
1:00 PM - 30 Jun 2016

Period of reflection? She sounds like a loon.

If the last week hasn't inspired them to reflect, then they're never going to figure things out.

Jamie I'm torn as to whether she was just a "pawn" with her convenient email written by Dacre's team

God it's awful to choose the best of a bad bunch isn't it

I would go with anyone but Crabbe, Gove and Dr Fox. Homophobes are up there with the zenophobes for me. Gove needs no explaination

So one of the wimmin

Scotland's potential future - out of the EU, with Michael Gove or Theresa May as PM. It fair focusses the mind.
1:08 PM - 30 Jun 2016

Teresa May probably has the edge with negotiations between the two women.

'Sky saying Dr Fox voted against gay marriage with Crabbe but Leadsome abstained, aye'

But isn't Fox himself gay??

Just saw the news on boris. I'm at work so a bit behind the times. Boris has been well and truly shafted after all. Thinking of you lot. This thread called it first.

Mitzy

Probably - but he doesn't know it From his wiki:

While studying medicine at Glasgow University in the early 1980s, Fox resigned his position on the university's Students Representative Council (SRC) in protest at the council passing a motion condemning the decision of the university's Glasgow University Union (GUU) not to allow a gay students society to join the union. The SRC motion called both the union's decision and the explanations given for it "bigoted".

I was just about to post about Angela Eagle.

U Turn on the cards???!

Wiki also says this:

On 10 June 2005, he announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Jesme Baird, a doctor who works at the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation and is an alumna of the University of Glasgow. They married at St Margaret's Church opposite Parliament on 17 December 2005.[104]

Oh I know howabout - a close relative is a HT on an academic panel to represent teachers in meetings with Gove/her.

They have had raging arguments with her in the past because she's gone against her word.

Just another example for me of that by her.

It appears her constituency is not happy with her. Either way, she's going to have fallout from this.

Sorry - that was about Angela Eagle.

Fab gif on this guy's Twitter feed of Nadine Dorries having a little cry over Boris!

That's one woman, I have no problem with being in tears.

There is talk that Owen Smith will stand instead of Angela Eagle. Or, as the BBC so incisively put it, 'um...a man called Owen Smith'.

Who the hell is Owen Smith?

John Smith's remains would probably have more hope of uniting the Labour party!

(no disrespect intended Mr Smith just in case you're reading this thread from another realm)
