RT by @Brendandonn: To be fair, they had the assurance of the Prime Minister of the day that these provisions would not come into force. If Unionists in NI can’t trust the British Prime Minister, who can they trust from the British government?

RT by @Brendandonn: It was politically much easier to pretend they trusted him. Ulster Unionists have often had to make the unpalatable choice between distrust of the London government and swallowing their doubts about its sincerity.

RT by @Brendandonn: One of the difficulties the British government has often had in its dealings with the EU is that the EU thinks it has the right to an opinion on what negotiations are taking place and what agreements have been concluded. This an unacceptable restriction on UK sovereignty.

RT by @Brendandonn: All this posturing is at one level simply to distract attention from the reality that nobody has been and perhaps nobody ever will be sent to Rwanda. But it gives a glimpse into the malevolent and ugly thinking behind the whole project. It’s what the government would like to do.

The usual unique mixture from Chris of painstaking detail and the big picture. He rightly says Brexit has embedded dishonesty in British politics, possibly beyond repair. Is this not the most powerful argument for now doing everything we can to rejoin the EU as soon as possible?

RT by @Brendandonn: Accepting Brexit was a mistake and drawing the to some painful conclusion that the UK should therefore rejoin the EU (this time as a fully committed member) would have a powerful disinfectant impact on British politics.

RT by @Brendandonn: You can only reasonably be described as “gearing up” to carry out a political manoeuvre if you have a political perspective that extends beyond the next twenty four hours. Nothing Sunak has said or done since he became PM suggests he has such a perspective.

RT by @Brendandonn: The one reassuring aspect of this disturbing interview is that nothing Rees Mogg says will make the remotest difference to whether Trump gets elected or not. Even if they are inclined to reelect Trump the gullibility of American voters still has some limits.

RT by @Brendandonn: Are Sunak and his Cabinet pursuing a sinister agenda to turn the country into a proto-fascist one party state? Or have they simply no idea what they are doing, lurching from one supposed panacea to another? I incline to the latter view. Brexit has made the country directionless.

RT by @Brendandonn: Today’s Conservative Party is not interested in conserving anything. Perhaps the House of Lords will be the next target of its revolutionary zeal. Mr Balfour should be living at this hour. His poodle has become distinctly snappy,

RT by @Brendandonn: I used to be quite a dab hand at building Airfix models of Second World War planes. I hope these technical and patriotic credentials will stand me in good stead when I apply for a licence to set up a new aerial carrier service to Rwanda later this year.

RT by @Brendandonn: His supposed absence of dullness is not much of an excuse for the absurdly exaggerated degree of attention which Peston and his ilk have lavished on Farage for the past thirty years. The jaded frivolity of its mass communications is a sure sign of a degenerate political culture.

Peston clearly feels the need to justify his lionisation of Farage. He could not however be more wrong in his apparent belief that the (debatably) attractive nature of Farage’s presentation somehow mitigates the odiousness of his views.

RT by @Brendandonn: Cleverly has just said that he has “respect” for the Conservative rebels against his government’s Rwanda policy. What he really means is that he is frightened of them because of the support they enjoy among many members of his party and the right wing press.
