I saw this labelled as "Brexit betrayal" by the usual newspaper suspects this morning.

That would be the Gibraltar that overwhelmingly voted to remain in the EU back in 2016.

Amazing what you can get done when posturing nationalists on all sides are out of power. Well not really, what is amazing is that people vote for Faragists and Francoists who go to the wire over a bowl of nothing.

Hopefully an empty bowel.

Speaking of which - excuse me a moment...

I see Kemi starred at PMQs again by denying there were two hospitals in her constituency, and then claiming one didn't count because it was a community hospital. That's the sort of straight talking common sense you always get from her. Why on earth would you do this, on one of the few occasions you as LOTO get noticed?

Doesn't count.
It's a community hospital.
For poor people.

Genius Badenoch has got herself reprimanded by Louise Casey for the way she responded to her report.

I mean, sure, politicians are going to take credit for calling for an inquiry first. But the Casey Report will feed into the bigger inquiry, so it's not like the time has been wasted. And what's a few months compared to 14 years?

Flipped on the BBC at 11:30.

They#re reporting Kemi leading a press conference about Grooming gangs.
Parents of victims were present.
They reported harrowing stories all between 2014 and 2017.
Nobody did anything.....

The supine press fail to join the dots to the government of the day.
What were members of the Justice committee doing.

It's a shame she sees the need to promote this as a partisan issue.
It seems foolish when so many instances point back toward her party's time in government.

No wonder Kemi's flailing around. 17.8% in the poll of polls, significantly down on the position at the time of the local elections.
