  • Given that the PM is insistent that the people will not have another say in the deal, I can only assume that they are considering the possibility of a general election.

  • I hadn't thought of that and happened to be having dinner with a friend who used to work at number 10 last night (as a civil servant, not a Tory).

    He didn't think this could be possible because he believes May's intent focus on plan A is actually totally genuine - apparently she's really not a 'scenario planner' type and he reckons no way she's playing a game that long. I don't know whether to be relieved or worried about that.

    That said Perry's little visit was on BBC R4 PM and I can't find any other evidence of it ever happening, so can only presume PM were given exclusive access, which is interesting.

  • I'm just spitballing here but perhaps this sudden push to meet the public, press the flesh and test the water isn't of May's planning. It could even be a veiled threat to May...
