"When I walked into that room, I knew she was finished”: The inside story of how Arlene Foster was savagely deposed. Her fall, & what comes next, is ultimately about far more than Mrs Foster or whoever succeeds her; it is about the future of the UK. https://t.co/m7HNreCySx

Two more DUP Scenarios:
1) The protocol is not perfect , but we can make it work, create jobs, grow the economy, work with Ireland, and move forward. 2) We can get the kids out, start a protest, blame Ireland, shrink the economy, but we’ll get the TUV voters back.

A Border Poll on what question? A Unitary State with 1 Parliament in Dublin, A Federal Ireland with 2 Parliaments in Dublin & Belfast & a Federal Assembly in Armagh, A Confederal Ireland with 2 Parliaments and a Council of Ireland, Dual Sovereignty or the GFA II with Powersharing

Is 50% +1 enough to win a #borderpoll?#Sindo : 81% of those polled in the Republic & 74% of those polled in Northern Ireland believe either a two-thirds or almost three-quarters majority is needed for a #BorderPoll result to be accepted. pic.twitter.com/mQrPmWxiiK

Johnson has told friends that he needs to earn about £300,000 a year — twice his salary — to keep his head above water, while a former No 10 insider said it was “received wisdom” that he is permanently broke. https://t.co/s3JydMTo2J

"Westminster insiders say that Boris Johnson’s decision to personally brief newspaper editors and make angry attacks from the despatch box this week point to a Prime Minister who is losing control as well as his cool."

Of the 150,000 people believed to have died of COVID-19 in the U.K., about 60 per cent died during the second wave of the pandemic, when Boris Johnson was slow to order a lockdown. “The bodies piled high in their thousands.” https://t.co/LyFCGjnmHS

. @BorisJohnson has 9 inquiries open on him. Labour are looking to open another inquiry. He could face criminal charges. Possible suspension from being PM. Hasn't offered to swear under Oath for his quotes. Endless scandals.

Trump allies worry Giuliani raid sent 'strong message' to ex-President's inner circle – CNN Politics https://t.co/gpbOHk4n5q

— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) May 1, 2021

Significant. Giuliani is essentially extorting the Ukrainians to make a public statement at the "right time" of a Biden investigation so that Biden would not win the Dem nomination. Trump feared Biden more than any other. Rudy is a criminal and a traitor. https://t.co/CXHSDCoCcJ

If the transcript between Giuliani and Yermak is this bad, imagine those of the Trump and Putin calls.

Also, Rudy Giuliani is lying. His involvement in the “blame Ukraine”
Kremlin disinformation warfare operation dates back to at least 2016. Manafort planned it even earlier. https://t.co/KSDC5Sg077

“Matt Gaetz is entitled to the presumption of innocence, but he is not entitled to sit on the House Judiciary Committee. That is an honor and a privilege,” says @RepTedLieu.

“Leader Kevin McCarthy must remove Matt Gaetz from the committee immediately.” https://t.co/2W2HZjLvdm

Watching this report on perfectly healthy middle-class Americans who won’t get the vaccine purely for political reasons, we really need to stop calling it “vaccine hesitancy“ and start calling what it is: aggressive, malevolent narcissism
