President Trump, talking about the Parkland shooting: “I really believe I’d run in there, even if I didn't have a weapon."

It's really strange that when the NRA has a speaking event, or at CPAC, or at a Trump rally… it's a "gun free zone". I wonder why? Probably because guns kill people. #GunReformNow pic.twitter.com/MZ7ZPSPS2F

Gov. Rick Scott got the headline that he was breaking with the NRA and Trump over guns.
But how much, really?https://t.co/pB8nNOVywd

The Trump Slump has resulted in a $100 million gun sales dip since last year. Arming 40% of American teachers would generate over $1 billion for the gun industry. https://t.co/xV6MDcWpBI

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said on Mon that when Trump called for Russia to hack Hillary's emails, he already knew they had them.
This means that Trump illegally coordinated with a hostile foreign power to win a presidential election, an impeachable offense.https://t.co/G30nZEMV9g

BATSHIT BREXIT BRITAIN (AND NORN IRON)
Post-Brexit Border to be like ‘crossing London boroughs’

Boris interview a real disgrace. Trying to claim Martin Donnelly only criticising Brexit because he is ‘Eurocrat’ (he was Liam Fox’s top trade official!) & likening Irish border to ‘the Camden/Islington border’ (what planet?). He simply isn’t fit for public office.

Pages 1, 6 & 7 Of The Mail are dedicated to plastic bags today. Precisely the sort of Brexit coverage Boris Johnson favours.

Brexit is like "rejecting a three course meal now in favour of the promise of a packet of crisps later" Liam Fox's top official tells @BBCr4today on the day Fox warns that remaining in a customs union would be "a complete sell-out of Britain's national interests"

Former world trade chief, Pascal Lamy, compares Brexit to "getting an egg out of an omelette". He's giving evidence to Commons Brexit committee.

It is snowing in London. No other weather is important. Ubers are now just a staffie with a sled attached. Gangs of rogue snowmen roam self imposed 'snow go zones'. The new currency is warmth. Help us.
