As a nation we have spent far too much time this weekend talking about Sarah Huckabee Sanders' access to primo farm to table cuisine and not enough time talking about the President's proposal to eliminate due process for people accused of a crime.

Or maybe you "just don't care" what the law is? https://t.co/38wSQj3ghK

This story makes a big deal of rising support among Republicans for Trump, which is surely noteworthy. But only in the 33rd graf does it hint at the fact that the number of Republicans has fallen nearly 15% since his inauguration per Gallup https://t.co/ithKjyKFrr

Dear Brexiters.
When Brexit leaders talk about 'deregulating' – they are talking about getting rid of rights such as sick pay, maternity rights, safety regulations etc.
And when @LiamFox talks about 'the Labour Market' – he's referring to you.
