It will be interesting to see if Johnson is kept as much at arm's length from the public as May was the other year. He's bad with the public, but in a different way to May. She didn't know what to say to them. Everything with him is a rehearsed act, which doesn't work well in the real world. Watson quitting Labour and Parliament is a good way of getting his name in the media. Thought he might try to put the boot in more, but I'd imagine he's playing the long game. Don't doubt he'll be handed a cushy job somewhere pretty sharpish a la David Miliband.

It was always obvious that Ian Austin wouldn't go quietly, but he's really outdone himself with his attacks on Corbyn and backing for Johnson. Not too surprising there would be some digs as there are a substantial chunk of Labour MPs who will do absolutely anything to avoid a pro-Palestine PM, hence the (greatly confected IMO) accusations of endemic antisemitism. Austin will do OK for himself. Appointed as a trade envoy to Israel by May already, apparently. It's going to be shitestorms for both sides the way this election is shaping up.

I do hope you're not discounting the LibDems Maringer..... Jo won't be at all happy about being sidelined

I'd forgotten that she is a seriously, truly, honest to God candidate for Prime Minister. Though quite how she'll manage to be PM with 50-odd seats as seems their best hope, I'm not so sure. The other issue is that her own seat is far from secure if the increase in support for the SNP is as expected. That said, even Johnson's seat isn't absolutely secure though it is unlikely that there could be enough of a swing to unseat him.

The Tories have lost 22% points to the Lib Dems in less than a month... The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress. Joseph Joubert.

They’ll win a Labour seat or two and then defect to the Tories won’t they? You know after the Tories time the deal out so we leave on no-deal.
