The funniest thing about all this, is the idea that, at the top of our sinister international Jewish conspiracy, the shadowy leader all along has been... Grant Shapps. twitter.com/joelrosen_/status/

Does anyone in twitter land know the difference between a post Marxist and a faux Marxist?

One of those mornings where political journalists are saying things like “Oliver Bimbleby-Twunt has called for the Prime Minister to go”. Great day for obscure MPs nobody usually gives a fuck about.

Kind of the perfect ending for this government, physically dragging MPs through a lobby in order to break a key manifesto pledge

While parliament has been sitting…

Boris Johnson has been in the US giving speeches at £150k a pop

And he missed yesterday’s vote because he’s on holiday in the Caribbean

Woke is not an insult

@unisontheunion Thank you to everyone at UNISON who supported us all the way to victory. To @cmcanea who stood with us on the picket lines in chilly Blackpool. Our win is life changing for us all.

Let's be clear. Braverman either did not send that email, or fully intended to, from a personal email account. As abhorrent as she and her racist beliefs are, she is not stupid. Her own resignation letter shows this is a calculated resignation, designed to bring down Truss.

If you really, really mean it when you say "Tories out", it means we tear out their capitalist ideology by the roots.

Today's two party system is a mechanism to protect power from change.

Changing the actors is easy enough, but we have to change the play.

I regret I must tell you we will now endure weeks of 'however did it come to this' from a commentariat that urged and cheered each step.

Any lingering flicker of doubt that the is well and truly gone must surely have come, this month, in the shadow of even darker times to come, when the people of the cried out for a hero, and Tory consensus replied 'How about Grant Shapps?'

The article is more coherent than the click bait title, but doesn’t offer anything other than stating the bleeding obvious. What to do, then? No idea.
