    👇🏻The brass neck of the Labour leader claiming our failure to leave the EU today is Boris Johnson’s fault is staggering. Corbyn and this rotten Remainer Parliament conspired at every turn to prevent Brexit today - despite being elected on a ticket of delivering Brexit in 2017. 🤬

    Boris Johnson has spent months promising we'd leave the EU today. The failure to do so is his and his alone. Labour will get Brexit sorted by giving the people the final say within six months with the choice of a credible leave deal or remain. And we'll carry out what you decide.

    Every time I hear a politician talk about the need for a Brexit compromise, I wonder again what compromises would have been offered by Remainers to defeated Leavers if Remain had won the 2016 referendum. I think we all know the answer.

    Where were all those howling “constitutional outrage” today throughout the last 45 years as thousands of laws, directives and regulations were foisted on a powerless UK by unelected bureaucrats in Brussels?

    👇🏻At this hyper-critical juncture in the Brexit negotiations, here is a British party leader revelling in getting together with the EU's Chief Negotiator. Little wonder that Brussels won't strike a reasonable deal when the UK's negotiating position is being so undermined 😡

    Pleasure to meet @MichelBarnier today. His job is to negotiate a deal, but I’m clear that the best deal we have is as members of the EU and that is what I will keep fighting for.

    I can only speak as I have found and in the 20 years I’ve known @pritipatel, I’ve never seen her bully anyone or been passed reports of such. She is an extremely determined politician on a tough beat with a mission to deliver what she’s promised. All power to her elbow!

    Amazing how Philip Hammond can predict what the economy will look like in 15 years' time when the Treasury routinely gets its annual forecasts wrong from one single year to the next...

    Three years ago today more people voted for Brexit than have ever voted for anyone or anything in British electoral history. Failure by our political class to deliver on that result - and very soon - will surely result in, to use the parlance of the time, a "democratic emergency"

    Corbyn says Boris Johnson has shown "contempt for democracy". But what about all those behind the legal challenges? Aren't they themselves guilty of "contempt for democracy" since their joint aim is to reverse the biggest democratic mandate in UK electoral history?

    As the Commons allows departing MPs to make valedictory speeches this afternoon, there’s just been a lovely contribution from Brexit hero @KateHoeyMP who reminds us that for thirty years as an MP she has put country before party. The Labour benches will be poorer without her.

    Am detecting an increasing sense of anger throughout the Tory parliamentary party that the very public anti-No Deal antics of Amber Rudd & Co have sent the EU the message that the UK is blinking and therefore Brussels need not respond to Cox with substantial backstop concessions

    Sir John Major is currently demanding that Brexit be put to a free vote in Parliament. Can someone help me out and remind me if he offered his MPs a free vote on the Maastricht Treaty?

    The Electoral Commission have put my friend @darrengrimes through a living hell these past few years. Today justice has been done and this taxpayer-funded quango has serious questions to answer about its hounding of a young and inspiring campaigner.
