What about death threats?

Party whip suspended... can't force her to resign, and probably don't want to.

I'd be surprised if she resigns... a feeble apology, 'some of my best friends are black'... you know the sort of thing, then keep her head down over the summer hols.

Talk to Jezza nicely, you'll probably get a seat on the front bench!

or just maybe, as I said, it is a welcome bit of open and compassionate government from an administration who is listening and flexible in responding to the will of parliament and the people?

The AYES to the right 101 the NOES to the left 322, the NOES have it, the NOES have it. Government majority of 221. Chuka Umunna's amendment G to Queen's Speech regarding BrExit is defeated. Bozza have the bookies paid out yet?
