2. Good grief.

Bone's intervention is incredible and desperate, no wonder it was greeted with laughter.

I hope the Court of Session in Edinburgh - which is keeping a close and, after today's hearing, which decided to continue its scrutiny, continuing eye on Johnson's adherence to the Benn Act - is taking note that the government is happy playing "Will he, won't he?" games with the law.

It sounds so far like desperation from the government is going to be the order of the day. Bernard Jenkins has just tried to argue that the Tory benches bailing out of the House as soon as the Letwin amendment passed on Saturday means that the government's motion wasn't voted on, so it can be debated again today.

If Jenkins checks Hansard, he'll find that it did pass, there just wasn't a formal division on it and it was passed as amended by a voice vote, which some see as a major government cock-up, to add to the long list.
