[Is it armageddon yet? @JaneClifford23]

Found this unexpectedly brilliant book by #TimBinding in a @leedslillibrary. Weaves together Yorks history from Brigantes to Bradford mills with lyrical descriptions of the flowing Wharfe & the moors, diary entries from Darwin 'taking the water cure' in Ilkley. Etc. Wonderful.

Joan Smith, brilliant author of Misogynies, has written a new book called Home Grown, establishing that men who commit acts of violence in the name of terrorism, often have a history of violence at home. #maleviolence #forensicfeminism

Where was the mention of #fleabag at the #BAFTAs? Great to see Killing Eve celebrated but Season 2 Fleabag has to have been the best tele this year.

There are just 74 parliamentary sitting days until new A50 deadline of 31 October

We simply do not have time to waste on a self-indulgent Tory leadership campaign

Could the Tories - just for once - put country before party?

We need a #PeoplesVote, and we need to start *now*

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

May is sinking & trying to drag Corbyn down with her.

She'll resign if her deal passes. Even if he wins customs union, it'll be torn up if Boris is PM.

Instead of enabling Tory #Brexit, Corbyn should help win time for a #PeoplesVote.

Bercow says the Government cannot hold vote after vote on a #Brexit deal already rejected twice by MPs.

It's only right that the public now have their say with #PeoplesVote.

If they too reject it, we must remain in the EU and heal our divided communities.

Twitter is clearly going to be full of mudslinging and anger over #LabourSplit - much of it very understandable - but it just feels fucking sad this morning. I don't know how you can be a lifelong Labour member and not just feel incredibly sad watching this.
