    Completely right Utterly shameful I am ashamed to be a member of the Labour Party.

    Be clear what has happened. Labour has now formally adopted a position that allows its members to be antisemitic. And it has added in, purely for spin, a post hoc "consultation" that no Jewish rep body can now go near, This is a shameful day for Labour.

    Who is taking responsibility for failing to honour the pairing agreement for who is on maternity leave? More than just an extension of the other heavy handed tactics on display, it disrespects women and why maternity leave matters.

    This is extraordinary. The US President said a hostile foreign power - one that has killed 298 in a plane, 1000s in Ukraine and used chemical weapons in the UK at least twice - is more trustworthy than the intelligence agencies of his own country.

    Brexit was not only sold on deliberate lies & false promises, but also by breaking electoral law.

    Those of us who wanted to give the Govt the opportunity to get through a pragmatic deal have now seen that fatally undermined by ERG, so there is really no point continuing to support it.

    So a government minister is forced to resign tonight in order to vote for government’s own white paper. PM may be in Office but it seems the ERG is in power.

    Nonsense Iain, my point is that hard Brexiteers need to stop pretending that there wouldn’t be shared rule books with other trade deals. We would be junior partner in US trade deal forced to accept lower standards on farming.

    What is effectively saying here is that she, as a UK legislator, is incapable of determining what standards are appropriate for the UK, and she needs the EU to protect us from ourselves. YeGods.

    Those pushing for ideological version of ‘clean’ need to explain how they would deal with the realities of protecting jobs, supply chains & safety. Instead of sabotaging this pragmatic White Paper they shd be honest about the actual risks of their no-deal Brexit
