One might also say unceremoniously kicking your power sharing partners out of government would be a "poor choice".

Not a serious offer by Alex Salmond. It’s almost like Alba is a revenge mission to bring down the SNP.
Wow, according to this, it seems that Trump floated executing people on multiple occasions while President
@EllenAMilligan Here’s a reminder of how trade works from UK➡️EU now. Pre-Brexit, there was one step required to send a pork chop to Paris. Post-Brexit, there are 23 steps. In short, it means costs, hassle & trade damage. We’ve managed to introduce economic sanctions on ourselves.🤡
A very good piece. Extra costs deriving from border checks are not just about the inspections, but the staff time around them, and potentially the reduction of choice. This is all normal economic theory that was always denied by the UK government.
💥Former minister & Tory MP Dan Poulter is quitting Tories & joining Labour. Writing in Observer: “I am resigning from the Tory party and crossing the floor. Only Labour wants to restore our NHS” > huge blow for Sunak ahead of local elections theguardian.com/politics/comme…

NEW: Yousaf claims a Holyrood elex cld be called, as refuses to say if he’ll resign if he loses vote of no confidence. Speaking to @ConnorGillies, Yousaf says it “really disappointing” to learn Greens’ll refuse to enter further talks re voting against home news.sky.com/story/humza-yo…
Lord David Frost “negotiated” the most disadvantageous trade deal in our history. Now, tilting at windmills of his own imagination, he wants to double down on the philosophy and policies that have self-evidently failed us. He is, literally, preposterous. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…
🔴 The Labour Scandal that’s Arguably Bigger than the Angela Rayner Story The new Welsh First Minister Vaughan Gething and the £200,000 donation that could trigger a leadership crisis, @josiahmortimer reports bylinetimes.com/2024/04/26/the…
The govt’s plans for mass bank account surveillance of benefit claimants is something that should worry us all. It will have a disproportionate impact on disabled people, people of colour, women and older people, as well as amount to a breach of privacy...1/3
These figures are eye-opening. The expected cost of the new border checks exceeds the £330 million estimated by the Gov by a factor of 10. When you take into account not only official charges but also a range of direct and indirect business costs. /1

🚨BREAKING NEWS: A few minutes ago Marco Gill, a Tommy Robinson and Britain First supporter, was jailed for four years for harassing me, sending bomb threats to hotels housing asylum seekers and buying a gun from the US. hopenothate.org.uk/2024/04/26/mar…
“Is there anything Humza Yousaf can say to change your mind?” Gillian Mackay: “I resign… I think is pretty much the space we’re in at the moment.”
(Still not) facing up to Brexit. New post on my Brexit & Beyond Blog. What recent Brexit news stories tell us about EU-UK relations and the domestic politics of Brexit - and what the future might hold for both: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2024/04/still-…
Trump says he would rather spend the day with Melania for her birthday but he has to be in court. Trump is literally in court because he enjoyed cheating on Melania.
The UK will finally impose checks on EU fresh food next week. I've tracked the journey bacon takes from Denmark to the UK, to illustrate the new reality of Brexit - that while trade doesn't stop, it's about to become harder and that bit more expensive bloomberg.com/news/features/…
New: we were told Brexit would make food cheaper. Next week, border checks on EU imports begin which will make food more expensive. Analysis for @itvnews shows the government’s BTOM could add £8.50 a month to the average household shop. Full story 👇 itv.com/news/2024-04-2…
The SNP have been in polling trouble now for quite some time. Warning signs were there under Sturgeon, but her stepping down really ripped off the bandaid. The party will want to do whatever they can to avoid going to the polls - they would be unlikely to do very well.
EU-UK regulatory alignment in action!! Only in this case, it's the EU that's aligning on UK legislation ;-) EU is proposing to allow pet food to be labelled as organic if it contains at least 95% organic ingredients - not 100% as previously. UK already stipulates 95% max.

a very classy response by @Jacob_Rees_Mogg here apple.news/A5Pis5RZnSMatT…
The damage Lord Frost has done to the economy of the United Kingdom, our reputation for competence and the Union of the United Kingdom ensures him a place in history books. The more nonsense he writes, the more he resembles the male version of the historic Liz Truss disaster.
Lord David Frost “negotiated” the most disadvantageous trade deal in our history. Now, tilting at windmills of his own imagination, he wants to double down on the philosophy and policies that have self-evidently failed us. He is, literally, preposterous. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…
“Israel has never accepted calling the ‘crime’ in Srebrenica a genocide” said the Israeli Ambassador Vilan. “Srebrenica should not be called a genocide. Israel has been summoned to the Hague for the alleged genocide in Gaza” They are terrified of the precedent set by Bosnia.
.@HumzaYousaf has said it would be a “poor choice” for the Scottish Greens to back the motion of no confidence in him, after writing to the leaders of Scotland’s political parties to seek “common ground” ✍️: @neilpooran standard.co.uk/news/politics/…
Kicking out the Greens to work with Alba certainly sends a message.
BREAKING: Scotland's first minister Humza Yousaf has written to the Alba Party Holyrood leader Ash Regan to discuss how the parties can work together with the new minority Scottish government trib.al/XthOWyY 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
Not a serious offer by Alex Salmond. It’s almost like Alba is a revenge mission to bring down the SNP.
Gravity Falls was supposed to have an episode that was basically a full on parody of Labyrinth. But sadly that never happened due to Disney believing Labyrinth wasn’t “relevant” (what do they know?) Thankfully we did get this beautiful moment.

@ArthurNewman_7 @Jacob_Rees_Mogg He does this regularly and intentionally. Not an isolated incident. For instance he diverted intentionally through a large group of protesters in Birmingham at the Party Conference a couple years ago. Sucks up police time and resources too

Never forget that Jacob Rees-Mogg said the victims of Grenfell Tower fire didn't use their common sense.
