Description

As the Johnson Rebellion fails to materialise and backbench rebellions over Northern Ireland fizzle, are we finally, finally seeing the end of the Brexit Wars? Plus: Humza Yousaf wins the SNP leadership. Can he put the party back together? How does Dominic Cummings still cast such a baleful shadow over the Tories? And Paris is burning. Can Macron put out the fire? Or is he l’allume-feu déformé? 



“The ERG WhatsApp saga shows you that yes, there’s a friends group… but there’s always the inner friends group that you’re not part of.” – Yasmeen Serhan



“Did Cummings bring Johnson down? No, Johnson brought Johnson down.” – Arthur Snell 



“Netanyahu’s in trouble. Either he pauses his reforms and loses his government – or he pushes his country into civil war or worse.” – Yasmeen Serhan



“Westminster reporting is a shadow of what it was… SubStack matters because you can’t attach yourself to a paper any more.” – Hannah Fearn
