Amber Rudd MP ✔

Despite personal assurances from the PM, the Cabinet was not shown the legal advice around this prorogation.

This is an astonishing moment and I regret that the PM, who entered office with such goodwill, went down this route. I urge him to work with Parliament to pass a Deal.

Johnson wasted no time in power making enemies among the Tory ranks. He's about to learn a hard lesson on why that wasn't a good idea.

Has anyone seen that wannabe Machiavelli old sot Cummings this morning?
