Who is the stupidest MP in Westminster? Thread:
Andrea Jenkyns wants MPs who have planning and strategy meetings with their foreign, like-minded counterparts (ie, every politician, ever) to GO TO JAIL. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7591983/amp/Tory-MPs-push-law-threatening-JAIL-British-citizens-undermine-Government-talks-abroad.html
Daniel Kawczynski, aka the Lemon Holder of Shrewsbury, is now volunteering to have himself jailed under the plans of his own Hard Brexit colleagues.

Actual Home Secretary Priti Patel, has just been asked how the new customs arrangements for Northern Ireland, that are in the Withdrawal Agreement Bill, will work.
But because Brexit hasn’t happened yet, she’s “not going to get into hypotheticals.” https://twitter.com/EleniCourea/status/1187005885358444553?s=20

(I can’t quite get over this one.
‘Home Secretary, this Puppy Strangling Act, will it involve the strangulation of puppies?’
‘I’m not getting into hypotheticals.’)

Incredible darts from @MattHancock. Tony Blair must be kicking himself he never thought of this ingenious way to justify the Iraq war. https://twitter.com/MattHancock/status/1189460703712813057?s=20
Oh Andrew Bridgen. It was always you. https://twitter.com/lewis_goodall/status/1191772096915001344?s=20
(A reminder, at this point, that there are literally hundreds and hundreds of MPs you’ve never heard of, who don’t go on the news. The decision, by these people, to publicly humiliate themselves time and time and time again is absolutely theirs’ and theirs’ alone.)
It is truly a thing of wonder. https://twitter.com/chunkymark/status/1191777705349591040?s=20
Johnny Mercer has absolutely stormed it. No one can touch him. https://twitter.com/tompeck/status/1192006686241906688?s=20
Right. Where were we? https://twitter.com/zarahsultana/status/1222555670911897601?s=20
Of course, the really nice touch here is that the MP whose leaflet Ms Sultana has thrown in the bin is the one who fought to save the life of the policeman murdered in the terrorist attack in 2017. https://twitter.com/zarahsultana/status/1222555670911897601?s=20
Fascinating article by @SuellaBraverman https://www.politico.eu/article/three-ways-brexit-makes-britain-stronger-eu-democracy-trade-immigration/
Wonderful scenes in the commons as @timloughton tells the Labour Party it has no right to ask about the most senior civil servant at the home office suing the government for constructive dismissal because of coronavirus and floods.
People replying to this re Loughton's starring role in Leadsom4Leader march but personally I prefer this gem. MP on jolly at film awards ceremony gets annoyed when film director wins award then makes speech about the film. https://twitter.com/timloughton/status/830904405138558976?s=20
Dehenna Davison MP there, leaving many big questions to answer, such as, ‘How do you become an MP with an understanding of how politics works that does not extend beyond the range of a common house fly?’ https://twitter.com/DehennaDavison/status/1259885015502127104?s=20
Daniel Kawczynski aka The Lemon Holder of Shrewsbury becomes the first MP to make the list twice. “The inaccuracies peddled by The Independent” - which, alas, is not one of the two papers to have broken the story.
Just next level stuff.
