“May the force be with EU”
-Perfectly illustrating the farcical outcome of today’s discussions at Westminster. Both sides cannot be right. The EU is none the wiser about what kind of Brexit UK actually wants. pic.twitter.com/rXnuC9I0Yw— John O'Brennan (@JohnOBrennan2) June 12, 2018
Once upon a time the Labour Party attacked the Government. Now its outriders – desperate to cover its leader's pro Brexit stance – attack the Government's rebels.

I am incredibly sad to have had to announce my resignation as a minister in Her Majesty’s Government so that I can better speak up for my constituents and country over how Brexit is currently being delivered. Statement to follow shortly on my website.

I hope those in Scotland have finally seen thru those shower of shits you elected to represent you in Westminster for what they are; self serving Tory/Labour puppets. They don’t give a flying rats ass for our country or the Brexit catastrophe that’s about to hit us!

15mins to discuss Northern Ireland, despite all of the risks to the GFA and of a hard border from Brexit and how the NI issue is so central to the UK agreeing a Withdrawal Agreement with EU. So much for DUP influence, or do they even care?https://t.co/NE9cKetMvJ

Can anyone explain why the only representatives NI has in the House of Commons (excepting Lady Hermon) are pursuing a hard Brexit, to the detriment of all of us? Anyone? pic.twitter.com/MiEO5iM6px
