Cummings is going to going to leak that there's a bomb under parliament that only he knows how to diffuse.
Brexited | the worst threads live the longest

You're not kidding anyone, I've seen your tagline.
Rory Stewart's off to be Brendan Rodgers' understudy.
Into a pigs mouth probably.
This is basically like Boris going round his house, while he was out, and planting landmines all over his garden, only to end up finding himself in Camerons house, surrounded by landmines.
I'm over Amber. Moved on to Layla Moran as my sociopath of choice.
That's much better, thanks.
So the Tories are breaking with convention and running a Brexiter against Bercow at the next election. Bold move considering he has a 26k majority, Buckingham was only 50.7% leave, and he’s held that seat for 22 years. Really hope he runs again.
He was talking about stepping down when this has finished around October, but god knows when that will be now. Really hope he sticks around.
To the women who aren't hot but you still would thread!
Eh?
This apparently was Theresa May leaving after the vote tonight.
Traditionally parties don’t run against the speaker in general elections.
Brexit has been a shambles, but it shouldn't be used as a form of historical revisionismAll of this is doing a great job at distracting people from his top achievements as prime minister :
That's my constituency and loads have run against Bercow without a chance of winning, indys, greens UKIP and even the master of failure Farage himself. As a long serving MP Bercow is well respected among the constituents which goes without saying for all the other long running Conservative MPs who have just had the whip withdrawn.
Its so exciting to see how Boris will feck this whole thing up
Daily Mail comment just now about Mogg made me laugh tbf.

This is what happens when you have no spine
Cameron didn't need Brexit to feck over a lot of vulnerable people - he did a good job of that in his first term (which that graph illustrates).
After spending the day next to Clarke. She's not a subtle person.
This apparently was Theresa May leaving after the vote tonight.
No I understand that. I'm just questioning
a) where youve got that
b) whether you know Bercrow is/was a Tory
One assumes he was when he won his seat representing the Tory party...?
looks like someone is running through wheat tonight
This apparently was Theresa May leaving after the vote tonight.
Still voted with the people who kept stabbing her in the back despite, being originally a remainer, knowing the kind of clusterfeck this is.
She already looks like she's run through a cannabis farm
a) One of the major media outlets ran it earlier. Sorry not sure which, I’m skipping between them a lot this evening.
b) Yes obviously. An extremely popular Tory in his constituency. Parachuting in a brexiter to challenge him at a time when the Tories are engaged in civil war is a pretty questionable tactic. It wouldn’t be the first time a popular incumbent kicked the ass of someone a party tried to impose.
Well, yeah, she's petty but she's not mad enough for the drama of voting against in her successors first vote.
Yeah I've found the source.

fecking ridiculous if true. Riot.
Quite funny.
Sums up tonight all round really.
Phillip Lee is going to struggle. Lib Dems are a distant third in Bracknell and it was firmly Leave territory.
Nazi Germany did actually start like this.
Makes the Lib Dems decision to accept him as an MP all that more bizarre. Just giving yourselves some bad PR for someone who's a dead man walking anyway.
I’ve been doing commentary in Oxford all night and got back to this madness!
General election then by the looks of it. Should be fun.

Not really that bad a PR move for them I guess. If he runs, he’ll certainly improve their vote share in that seat, maybe even moving them into second place.
I’m fascinated about what will happen with the deselected ones who are running again next time though. Shame people like Letwin, Greening, Soames etc already said they won’t run.
Hopefully they tank no deal Brexit tomorrow.
Then let's work on binning this shit idea all together.

It's not exactly a great look for them when you've got party activists expressing outrage on Twitter due to the fact this guy has an anti-LGBT past and isn't remotely liberal at all. Which should be a basic requirement for someone wanting to be a Lib Dem. It's obviously sensible for the party to hoover up defections but that shouldn't mean anyone is allowed in irrespective of their political past...otherwise they aren't really the Lib Dems but essentially a socially moderate Tory party. Which would perhaps make sense, to be fair, considering that's basically where Swinson's politics lie anyway.
Ken Clarke on Newsnight:
True, but considering wider events I can’t see it hurting them any.
On a separate note, Boris’s constituency majority isn’t very big, and polling shows it has swung from narrowly leave at the referendum to narrowly remain. Now he’s a no-deal extremist, I wonder what might happen, especially if the Lib Dems sit this one out..
a mirror of the Trump administration
It was pretty obvious that several tories would have the dignity and vision to sacrifice themselves to avoid a No-Deal Hard Brexit.
Still glorious, though.

Name recognition should ultimately ensure he keeps the seat provided the nationwide Tory vote doesn't completely sink. Although if the election really goes against them, would then perhaps come into play.
