Indicative Votes - Comedy Gold
Oh can Brexit entertain. I mean it is quite sad overall, but as it has developed into farce at least one is able to enjoy the show. It is like a live running of The Thick of It blended with Laurel and Hardy.
Today stands to provide some epic moments. Firstly, Bercow surely, as noted by my very insightful co-authors ND and BQ (I am sucking up to you both as I am away again next week...), Bercow will not be able to resist picking only version of remain for the vote - he might throw in No Deal as a bone to be knawed on by the Remain Parliament and to make them feel better about some more top-draw virtue signalling.
Then, very likely, May's Deal will not be one of the top 3 options. The top 3 options on votes are likely to be Corbyn's carbuncle of Customs Union and Single Market membership, Remain and Revoke. What other point is there to this whole charade if not to pick a non-Brexit option?
On the back of this, we will get the comedy of May finally quitting in disgrace as she can't pass her Deal - which is sweetly ironic because it comes just as the point where she has bullied the ERG into submission but, alas, not the DUP who have it seems fled to the Remain side at the finish line, so it can't pass. There the DUP can sit, somehow blaming the Tories for the mess they have caused.
From here the entertainment gets better. A new Tory remain leader will now have to delay Brexit by a bit more and ask for a much softer deal, which hardly means leaving the EU at all. When the Tories then finish their election in a few weeks, a hard leaver will be in situ, but stuck with a new deal that involves not leaving very much. Hubris indeed. With the DUP no longer trusted due to their betrayal, a general election in 2019 becomes inevitable.
On the Labour side, the penny has finally dropped that they are not voting to remain, so the anguish of the voters will also be felt. However, a soft remain is a victory of sorts to be claimed and the far-left are very good at claiming victory when there has been none. So, for real laughs, we may well end up with Jeremy Corbyn as PM in 2019.
To top it off the banning or porn and memes on the internet by the EU just at the point when they are about to crush the UK rebellion is also fabulous timing. It echoes the 2016 migrant crisis for unfortunate highlighting of the terrible aspects of the EU at just the wrong moment and so losing the referendum in the first place. Just as they win, the goodwill is squandered.
Now none of this may happen, but the bizarre scenario above seems the most likely path of events from here.

CIA step in to Question Time row
 |
| Nigel Farage seen leaving Canterbury last night |
Speaking on behalf of frightened of BBC, (£330,000 a-year) Executives, the Director denied that hosting Russell Brand on the show was cruel and unusual punishment.
Brand, a mentally distuberd if brilliant, counter-terrorist, launched into a wave of sexist attacks on a British Minister - "Pay their pensions then, love. Excuse the sexist language, I'm working on it."
In addition he lambasted UKIP leader Nigel Farage. In what was a clear set-up the BBC allowed a left wing heckler to constantly shout 'Racist' at Nigel Farage at regular intervals.
The CIA director insisted that this kind of mental testing was important for the BBC if it was to be able to expose
Furthermore, the CIA insist that Ed Milliband and David Cameron had both signed up to the agenda. along with the Guardian Media group and that bloke who is a judge and wants to stand for Labour now.
The BBC will not be making any more Question Time series until the New Year, when there are plans afoot to hold the show at GCHQ and aboard HMS Victory

Sunday times
There was a time not so long ago when I would scour the Sunday newspapers, desperate to find some info on the latest take-over or move in the market in order that I could plan my trading for the week. Now instead the papers are full of articles like this one in the Telegraph. Well written and coherent - it still reads to me as a someone writing in Rome in the early 5th Century AD.It will be such a shame if all is really lost, but how do we get morality back into the system. Not being a church-goer this is a question I find hard to answer. Amoral markets I would accept, possibly, but immoral markets and Governments lead us to...well I don;t know. But at worst a new set of Dark Ages.
Oh for the Sunday evenings of but 4 years ago.
