To nobody's surprise at all Bercow would only allow four Remain amendments to be voted on in parliament tonight, happily they were all defeated and another so-called Tory has thrown his dummy out of the pram and resigned from the party.  Brexit really is clearing out all the phonies.

@Lynne I really do not give a fig about what Nigel Farage might have done, it is the electorate's decision that matters.

In June 2017 Snow allegedly yelled "F*ck the Tories" while attending the almost all-white Glastonbury festival, something he later said "he has no recollection of saying".  And this man is a newsreader for a supposedly impartial news programme on Channel 4.

" I will skip any programme made by Channel 4, it is a bastion of the left."

Channel 4’s new anchor Jon Snow has been heavily criticised after he claimed he’d “never seen so many white people” as he reported from the Brexit march.

@Vicks as far as I am concerned it is Leave supporters and Leave MPs who will have to make the most of the result. They wanted it. They can sort it out.  That is of course that now having sown this havoc they don't then disappear from active service (anyone seen Dominic Cummings recently?). And I doubt very much if the likes of Farage would have stopped arguing for a second referendum if ...
