Unbelievable.

TB was out and about but just managed to get to a television in time to see the car crash TV that was Michael Martin's statement. Not only was it clear that he wasn't reading his own words but the questions afterwards were brutal. He had no idea how to handle the debate and had to rely on clerks. Surely he would have known what questions would be coming up and would have at least had a decent answer prepared if he thought he was going to go down with a fight.


The ball is very much in Dave's court. An official nod towards Carswell's motion from DC and it's all over for the Speaker.

It was horrifying. How on God's earth did he not anticipate what was about to happen, and bone up on procedure. Was he not watching TV over the weekend? How could he be so thoroughly unprepared for today?

Cameron bottled the speaker issue in his press conference calling for an election.

And he made it clear that he is going to bottle it over the EU.

Jumping on the 'election' bandwagon....how brave.

I suggest you look to the libertarians within the party ranks for real leadership.
