DUP's Nigel Dodds:
"There will be checks because we are going to have exit summary declarations from NI to GB.

"He now calls them administrative processes but they are exit declarations that'll need to be checked."

He adds: "Please wake up and realise what is happening here."

DUP's David Simpson:
"why has the Conservative & Unionist party done this to Northern Ireland?

"Are we the sacrificial lamb that had to be made to get the deal over the line?

Did they actually think the Tories cared about them or Northern Ireland?

The DUP were useful when Theresa May needed votes. After Alex Johnson destroyed his own majority, the DUP became irrelevant to him. They are not really a sacrificial lamb, they are nothing to him unless he needs them for something.

Lib Dems attempted to amend the Queen's Speech with a second referendum but:

Doubt it would've had enough support.

In theory but that could all change at any moment. The EU could refuse an extension, demand a shorter extension, demand a longer extension, an election could be called, a referendum could be called or Johnson’s deal could be passed. Some of those are more likely than others of course.

Speaking to people in work and trying to correct this notion of 'he passed the deal'. It never ceases to amaze me how people can be suckered in by lies if they told the same lie repeatedly.

Amazingly we've managed to hit yet another low point: Most voters believe violence against MPs 'is price worth paying' over Brexit

Most leave voters who took part in the Future of England study thought violence towards MPs was a “price worth paying” for Brexit to be delivered – 71% in England, 60% in Scotland and 70% in Wales.

The majority of remain voters felt that potential violence was worth it if it meant we would stay in the EU – 58% in England, 53% in Scotland and 56% in Wales.

Hopefully the climate collapse topic will be a big focus of a GE too. The school strikes every Friday and Extinction Rebellion could hopefully divert votes away from Tories and Brexit to other parties. At least for the people on the fence.

So that's SNP, Lib Dems and Labour ruling it out. Needs 2/3rds of MPs to vote for it, so no chance now.
