    I'm actually a panel member too (in it purely for the money) and have been for years. Ever since nominating my preferred political party, I have received no invitations for political polls, so am naturally suspicious.

    Some of the questions are so obviously skewed a seven year old could spot the subterfuge. It's not even subtle.

    Strangely, I just received an invitation to complete a survey which included two 'political' questions - on a scale of 0 to 10, how do you rate Boris Johnson?, followed by the same for Keir Starmer. Obviously, I answered 0 for the former and 1 for the latter...

    TBF I would have given Starmer a 3. Or at least a 2.

    Nah - he's far too biased against Scotland for my liking, and seems to know little about the country. A bit like Corbyn really - who once famously waffled about catching a train to Orkney.

    If you're here on holiday, I hope the weather isn't spoiling it for you. It's been cold, wet and miserable here for the last few days - the dog and I have cabin fever.

    "The “economic cost” of Brexit, £130 billion, now exceeds what we’ve paid into the EU over 47 years."

    Interesting to see suggestion of rejoining the Single Market from a Conservative MP, feels brave and unlikely to be shared by many of his colleagues as yet, but suggests the debate on our EU relationship is far from over. Upgrading Brexit, sounds like a careful choice of words.

    With the possibility of BoJo being given the boot tonight, Russ in Cheshire assesses some of those tipped to replace him...

    Anyone know how if the vote of no confidence ends in a tie, how the penalty shoot out will be organised?

    They'll have a lie off, which Johnson should win without raising a sweat.

    Sounds like he won quite comfortably although that is 140 odd MPs against him.

    Our local MP had already said he was going to side with Boris.

    Young and up and coming - probably fancies a job in the cabinet who I presume all voted for Johnson?
