📽️ If he won't go, he must be removed. It's as simple as that. The Tory backbenchers need to find a back bone and quickly. @BorisJohnson lacks any moral authority to govern. The longer he stays in office the worse this will get. pic.twitter.com/nvZOtPmC2Y

Breaking: As Biden speaks NC state court upholds extreme gerrymandered maps, including US House map giving GOP 71-78% of seats in state Trump won with 49.9% of vote. This is exactly the kind of partisan & racial gerrymandering Freedom to Vote Act would block

The fight for voting rights takes persistence. As MLK exhorted, “The clock of destiny is ticking out. We must act now before it is too late.” Thank you, @POTUS, for refusing to relent until the work is finished. Welcome back to Georgia where we get good done. #FTVA #JLVRAA

Record turnout in the 2020 election should be viewed as good news for democracy.
Instead, Republicans see it as a threat to their power.
They know they can't win if so many people vote. And so they're assaulting our election system.

Stop actually thinking there is any kind of general logical sense to public statements about Article 16 from Liz Truss

It's not about *actually triggering*

It's about positioning in the Tory Party to replace Johnson

Nothing. Else. Matters.

— Jon Worth (@jonworth) January 9, 2022

Constant threats to invoke Article 16 are obviously not good for Northern Ireland, relations with the EU, business confidence etc. Very helpful for candidates to be Conservative leader though, and surely that's what matters to the country right now? https://t.co/cj53pqMI3w

There might be a brief Eurosceptic cheer if @trussliz actually triggers A16, but agree it's a dead end with predictable consequences including 1) trade war with EU 2) row with Washington 3) reminds people that Brexit is a bit of a mess 4) a climbdown a few months later https://t.co/IvbPBe6Izd
