Just arrived at the #LabourSplit / #LabourSplinter press conference. Rumours circulating that the mooted name of the new centrist party will be “The Adult Baby Takeover”

I worked in Advocacy for 3yrs, I speak fluent French & I'm a spokesperson for a political movement…
And I still can't find the words to say how little I give a crap about party-political drama when the country's moving closer & closer to a National Disaster Brexit.#LabourSplit

I can confirm that the new centrist party has not contacted me. So, they clearly don't need a brilliant transport secretary. #LabourSplit

On a more sobering note, there was this from one of the few MPs we’ve got time for, Chris Bryant.

I can't say how sad I feel today. One valued colleague has died. Seven others have left @UKLabour. May is keeping the country in suspended animation whilst chasing unicorns. Meanwhile my constituents survive on minimal wages and rely on food banks. pic.twitter.com/Y0kVvLnalq

Chins up, everyone!
