Government not had a good day, Johnson effortlessly led to the desired outcome by Starmer in PMQ's whilst the less said about Patel v. Cooper the better.

Lewis now suspended from parliamentary Conservative party. All Grayling had to do was tread water for a week and then parliament goes into recess for the summer and the Russia Report could be kicked into the long grass until Autumn. Now the committee is due to meet again tomorrow to discuss publication. Cummings will be fuming

This is the water.
And this is the well.
Drink full and descend.
The horse is the white of the eyes and dark within.

...recess...
You'd have thought during such an important time that recess would be suspended for a while. It's like a fucking holiday camp. Just how little has Boris actually been at the stand to be held account for this shitshow? Not enough for my liking and at times when there has been and still is plenty to scrutinise. |

Lots of positives in the immigration plans announced today by the Home Secretary.
Did you get the answers you wanted? |

Cummings will be fuming
Why do you think that Lewis has had the whip removed, for a genius Cummings makes a hell of a lot of unnecessary mistakes, trying to impose Grayling on the committee pissed off a lot of MP's (including some Tory ones) hence Lewis getting the chairmanship of the committee on the back of Labour, SNP and Tory votes, Cummings might be able to bully and manipulate employed civil servants, he doesn't seem to grasp the issues with elected members. Dominic Grieve was quite strident about it on NN last night; https://twitter.com/BBCNewsnight/status/1283523486057664517?s=20 So we now have a pissed off committee who can choose to release the Russia Report, we shall see. |

It's all very reminiscent of the Blackadder episode where they make Baldrick an MP isn't it?
Chris Grayling, MP for Dunny on the Wold.

It takes a certain skill to come second in a one horse race! I don't think Patel is getting the coverage she deserves... https://twitter.com/BBCPolitics/status/1283347431606964226?s=20 |

Russia Report out by next Wednesday then, I imagine it will be redated to such an extent that only the punctuation remains (or alternatively says nothing of any note).

Not expecting a smoking gun, but I think there will be some further details to add to the overall stench of corruption and betrayal that surrounds this govt and its allies and some leads for journalists to follow up which will lead to more. Drip, drip, drip. |

I wonder what cockup this release is supposed to deflect from?
On a different note, Boris Johnson claimed the UKs' test and trace system was "as good as" any in the world, although Number 10 was unable to offer any evidence for the claim.
That is like me stating that I am 6ft tall adonis with flowing locks and a python in my trousers - then refusing to show anybody my pictures

One would assume its to get people talking about Labour Russia links before they start talking about Tory Russia links? Do you also have a stunningly beautiful older girlfriend, but she goes to another school! |

It will simply say; RUSSIA REPORT
