Morning all - just a few thoughts I predict a weekend of abject misery, violence and public order. This is being organised by Waxy Lemon and his lieutenants. He has already posted a significant number of muster points, this, on top of Farages call to arms is a particularly incendiary statement. The lack of condemnation from high profile political figures is deafening. We are finally seeing UK in the same light as the Balkans, Germany, Scandinavia and other East European countries that have gone through the rise of the far right fascists. The demograph of the public order is significant, a handful of faux โ€œpatriotsโ€ supported by essentially kids. Says more about the breakdown of societal boundaries than a call to arms around an insidious ideology. Itโ€™s easy to point the finger of culpability so I will, those below and others have stirred the cauldron of hate and division since Brexshit. Itโ€™s easy to appease an intolerant, uneducated mass when you have identified a reason for why the masses lifeโ€™s are so bad. The Naziโ€™s did it very effectively. We (those who reject hate) need to condemn those participating, challenge those who antagonise and support those who are fronting up to this fascist scum. We will prevail - We have more in common than that which divides usโ€ Jo Cox famously said. We wait, stay safe #PeaceAndLove

Extraordinary. The government has decided not to take any further part in the debate. If the Labour motion is now carried the government will have lost control of its foreign policy. By tradition that is a matter of confidence. And should lead to an immediate general election.

One reason โ€œget to workโ€ policies are so cruel for disabled people is that losing their career was devastating. Sitting on the sofa is nice for a weekend but less so if youโ€™re doing it for thirty years and in pain. Being told you โ€œdonโ€™t want it enoughโ€ is psychologically brutal.

People arenโ€™t just born with a disability , people can acquire a disability at any point in their life. It can be temporary or permanent No one is born a carer but you can easily become one Then what financially? Think before you cheer on benefit cuts, think carefully indeed

UN experts have warned that we are witnessing a genocide in the making. Home by home, hospital by hospital, generation by generation, Palestinians are being wiped out before our very eyes. MPs had the chance to demand a ceasefire. The majority chose to cheer on war instead.

An entire culture, history and people are disappearing under the rubble โ€“ buried by the moral cowardice of our political leaders. Artists whose work we will never know. Teachers whose lessons we will never learn. Children whose laughter we will never hear. We must keep raising our voice for an immediate ceasefire. For the universal application of international law. For our shared humanity. For the only path to a just & lasting peace: an end to the occupation of Palestine.

The huge tragedy of the UK is that for 31 of past 44 years The Tories and their asset stripping short termism has downgraded our country. Decent housing was turned into an unaffordable asset - we have gone from the second most equal society in Europe ( after Germany) in 1975 to the most unequal society in Europe with crumbling infrastructure , collapsing services, bankrupt councils and an NHS about to implode. All the tories do is spread hate so their backers , fossil fuel companies and others can rip us all off in perpetuity . Once they ate voted out they must never be allowed to resurrect again. They are a worse plague than Covid 19 in this country, they offer nothing but pain, death ignorance and insecurity

ACCURACY PLEASE This would be good news, except the detail doesn't appear to back up the tweet. Renault press release says "The initial organization will have two operational centers: Madrid for Renault & Hangzhou Bay (China) for Geely (Chinese firm).ย  An executive team will be based in the HQ of the new company, which is intended to be established in the U.K." So up to 19,000 jobs spread across 3 continents, while considering the HQ office in the UK, and not a ยฃ6bn investment in this country? I may be wrong. Could you please clarify @LiamFox as I'm sure you wouldn't want to give people false hope? Specifically how many jobs and how much investment will there be in the possible HQ office & the possible factories in the UK?
