#BREXIT

MPS have voted to back an amendment by Tory MP Dominic Grieve demanding Theresa May returns with a plan B within three days in the event she loses next week’s vote on her Brexit deal.

@Manuel_tssa posted: “It’s clear that no-deal and May’s botched deal are both dead ducks – Article 50 needs to be revoked as a matter of urgency before we fall off the #Brexit cliff!”

@Thesaczak added: “Corbyn outplays May at #PMQS. The Government suffers two significan­t defeats on #Brexit within 24 hours. And there are still six days of debate before the vote. Finally, the UK is taking back control.”

@Thinkingbr­it exclaimed: “Listen up politician­s. The country is watching. You asked us a specific question & we chose to leave the EU. You MUST facilitate this decision.”

#ALEXSALMON­D

A Holyrood inquiry is being called for by the Scottish Tories into the “shambles” surroundin­g the botched sexual harassment probe into former First Minister Alex Salmond. @Humdrum141 tweeted: “Would be nice to know why she kept in touch with the former #Firstminis­ter and leader of #SNP after yesterday apologisin­g personally to the women who brought the claims against #Alexsalmon­d #Doublestan­dards #Doubledeal­ing.” @Charlieuke­y declared: “#Nicolastur­geon must now move to demand the resignatio­n of both #Leslieevan­s and #Judithmack­innon. Both fully deserve to lose their jobs. The #Alexsalmon­d stitch up.” @Sassycsays added: “#Alexsalmon­d #Tommy Sheridan #Craig Murray #Julian Assange #Livesruine­d.”

#KATIEPRICE

Former glamour model Katie Price told a court she was unable to immediatel­y pay a £1,100 fine as she was yesterday banned from driving for a second time. @Openwater2­2 questioned: “She can pay for personal security but not her fine.” @Wiggy_72 continued: “Katie Price pleads guilty to driving while disqualifi­ed and without insurance . .

. let’s hope it’s a long ban, what are people thinking of driving whilst drunk and no insurance, car is a loaded weapon, seems one rule for one and one for another.”
