It's a bit like when he said that the offending sentence was quoted by him, yet he put it outside the speech marks containing the rest of the quote. It is not English like wot she is spoke, is it, Dave? He's becoming a bit Keithistic in my view, only with a lot more rude stuff thrown in.

In the meantime our beloved PM is cluelessly rowing with the EU again over the Irish border. It's becoming clear that only a customs union can resolve that issue. The DUP are sharpening their teeth at the very thought of a customs border down the middle of the Irish Sea, the only non-fudge solution possible, if the Republic and the Six Counties end up with a soft border without a UK customs union with the EU. It doesn't look to me like the EU are up for fudges. And we have the spectacle of the Institute of Directors and the CBI siding with Corbyn against her. Aren't things going well? She's even had to tell her own backbenchers to "just calm down!"
