The PM commands our involuntary respect for refusing to make her Brexit lessons any more interesting: @AndrewGimson's sketch of her Commons statement bit.ly/2Gmy0o2

Martin Hammond translated Homer and Thucydides, and here, as it were, he translates Boris Johnson; though the master was unable to turn his pupil into a professional classicist, he understood Boris's refusal to conform, which is combined with a deep loyalty to institutions.

He groaned slightly and winced like Prometheus watching his vulture dropping in for lunch.

Yes, it’s in the book. Martin Hammond’s reports on Boris are a brilliantly fair, penetrating, appreciative but annoyed biography in miniature.

A friend sent me that Boris nugget. Apparently the full letter was originally reprinted in the book 'Boris: The Adventures of Boris Johnson' by Andrew Gimson.

I return from a day trip to Shingle Street, & climb its Martello Tower. Here’s the view north over Shingle Street itself, & south towards Felixstowe. #Suffolk pic.twitter.com/2jrhwjChjS

If the populists gain more power within the EU, "I wonder if supporters of the current Brussels establishment will be quite so keen on the unaccountable, centralised structures which they built". @wallaceme on the significance of the France/Italy rift. bit.ly/2WZokVA

The great Abolitionist Granville Sharp (1735-1813). The son of the Archdeacon of Northumberland & educated at Durham, he was a noted classicist and lawyer, and his defence of James Somerset led to Lord Mansfield’s judgment that the state of slavery was not permitted in England. pic.twitter.com/SRZT4TfpZN

My boyfriend thinks it’s gross to have a cat on the table while we’re eating. Said cat disagrees. They’ve reached The Utley Compromise: she’s allowed on, but is forbidden from crossing the line 🤓🐱 pic.twitter.com/XfnhDZwe16

James II came to the throne #OTD 1685. After the Exclusion Crisis it is remarkable how warmly he was greeted; & even more so how quickly he squandered support. "He had no true judgment & was soon determined by those whom he trusted... obstinate against all other advices" [Burnet] pic.twitter.com/Ws0p8rgtOH

Hard to see Corbyn ever walking through a Brexit aye lobby with May. But getting easier to see Lab MPs, with tacit approval from leader, getting a deal over the line. Permission, but no fingerprints.
