There’s hope Southwark council plans to compulsorily purchase the ground as Meadow seem closed to dialogue and apparently want to drive a popular - and newly-promoted - local club out of business. Latest here:

Amid the World Cup spare a thought for @DulwichHamletFC whose ground is fenced off & becoming gradually overgrown due to deeply unpleasant property speculators Meadow, who have been refused permission to build flats on it. pic.twitter.com/USPki9aRVV

Don’t think so - these are generally libertarian types, not authoritarians.

Sorry - genuine question - what’s the best adjective? My choice had to do with her appearance, just how late in the pregnancy she is. Seems a fairly common phrase.

Just saw very heavily pregnant Lib Dem deputy leader Jo Swinson - two days past her due date - walk down the corridor to vote on the EU withdrawal bill, looking not very thrilled to be there. Sometimes parliament can seem *very* archaic.

Every MP I’ve spoken to so far seems quietly puzzled at what the latest fudge really means, but adamant that it - yet again - doesn’t solve anything, merely sweeps the inevitable conflict yet further down the path.

Labour overall seem content to take heart from whatever ground they’ve made. Some not particular polite words being said about the Tory rebels-that-weren’t, however.

One of the many variables of the current “meaningful vote” fudge is the huge discretion it gives the Speaker on this issue. Raises the question: will (generally pro-parliament) John Bercow still be Speaker when it matters?

I’ve got to say, by my amateur body language and facial expression analysis, Tory rebel corner in the Commons doesn’t look a hugely happy place. I’d call the expressions resigned.

As Grieve says he has accepted the government compromise lots of tuts and sighs rise from Labour benches. They think Tory rebels have been sold a pup.

Labour remain types not looking happy. Chris Bryant rises to say parliament needs “a meaningful vote and not a pretend one” on a final Brexit deal. twitter.com/guardianheathe…

Govt chief whip Julian Smith has just arrived in the Commons. Sits on the front bench, rubs his eyes, checks his phone. He looks a bit knackered.

Keir Starmer ignored about 50 requests to give way as he ended his speech. Not something you have to worry about as a barrister making an argument in court.

Labour MP Paul Farrelly makes a point of order to ask Speaker to rule on the neutral/not neutral conundrum. Speaker says he won't now. So we all remain confused.

Some Stoke-on-Stoke action in the Commons as Jack Brereton (SoT S, Tory) says Gareth Snell (SoT Central, Labour) should think of local leave voters and back the government's amendment. Slightly low blow.

Maybe we're underestimating Theresa May's Olympic-level talent for fudging. She might end up making things so complicated that the government wins the vote because MPs don't quite understand what they're deciding.
Could be accidental, but she'd still take the victory.
