    Nope, it's the Tories fighting each other.

    More pearls of wisdom from Mr I Am From Southampton Kick All Non Londoners Out Of London Except Me.

    Baron Clarke of Nottingham is obviously “a decent sort” because he is a Remainer.
    John Major is a whet Europhile who favours the creation of a Federal Europe. He signed the Maastricht Treaty.
    Why does a London-based Remoaner like those two Tories?

    Naturally a crazed Leftie hates any of the symbols of patriotism, so those who voted Tory rather than for Corbynism must be “flag-shagging proles”. You missed out the opportunity to demonstrate your racism and sexism by forgetting to use the word “gammon”.

    Astonishingly, another Remoaner so in love with the EU that they are still living here: I am sure they would welcome you with open arms in European Utopia.

    With an eighty seat majority, I think they can allow a little bit of dissent in the ranks. There is sure to be one of those barnstorming legalese speeches by the Leader of the Opposition to galvanise his troops into action, provided they are not too busy on the benches behind him plotting.

    A group of Conservative rebel MPs has been thwarted in its bid to overturn £4bn of government cuts to the overseas aid budget.

    They had suggested returning spending from 0.5% to 0.7% of national income next year through a bill dealing with the UK's new research agency.

    But the proposal was ruled inadmissible by Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle, meaning it will not be put to a vote.

    However, he called on ministers to give MPs an "effective" vote on the issue.

    Sir Lindsay said the rebels' amendment was not within the remit of the law they wanted to change - meaning it could not be allowed.

    The Parole Board is an independent body not a political entity.

    This could still turn out to be a non story. I seem to recall that a couple of years ago the law was changed to allow victims a say in the Parole process. As the mother of one of the girls is still alive (as far as I am aware) she could lodge an objection within the 21 day period of release notification. Also, the Justice Secretary can block releases.

    It shouldn't even be a story. This disgusting man and let's face it, it's always men, should be locked up forever.

    So now you need to post 93 pictures of male killers.

    Set you to your task.

    I am genuinely surprised the figure of female murderers is 7 percent in England and Wales.
