Govt ditches probate fee increase/change which has been a fuck up since introduced.

Also, for someone like Charles Moore - educated at Eton & Cambridge, former editor of The Spectator & The Daily Telegraph, authorised prime ministerial biographer - to sit there, languidly denouncing "the elites", takes a certain brass neck.

Am afraid Labour needs radical change to stand any chance at this point. Common sense, community spirit and common decency don’t translate into party politics in our current truth-free world. Sound bites are the new facts and charisma (no matter how mystifying to me) trumps good-decision making, honesty and anything else of real value.

FWIW I don’t think Labour should risk an election without a referendum on the current options:
- crap deal
- no deal
- no Brexit
What’s the word?

A Labour style Brexit deal ain’t going to happen and in the unlikely event that it did, labour would be making themselves the scapegoat for the nightmare that will be any kind of Brexit.

And while we’re on the subject of being doomed, does anyone have to hand the figures on the amount of fossil fuels used to provide energy to electric cars?

Re: Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th October 2019
then read the Observer - Corbyn ( and I allow this is the paper's slant ) seems set on a 'Labour' brexit as a preference.

I can confidently predict that there will be no such thing as a Labour Brexit. It’s almost like there’s mass cognitive dissonance going on. Like the UK is in the process of unknowingly enacting a (major) rewrite of The Crucible.

I don’t think it’s me that’s being defeatist. But not being defeatist means avoiding a route that clearly will not work - and choosing instead a route that might.
