The loss of May's voice a fitting metaphor for the loss of her majority.

In case you’re wondering what policy you missed: 5k new homes a year, confirmation of energy cap from manifesto, organ donation opt-in.

Spare a thought for those of us still to deliver our conference speech and now fretting about all the things that could go wrong ? #SNP17
— Nicola Sturgeon (@NicolaSturgeon) 4 October 2017

I’ll say it again, if main Tory attack line on Corbyn is 70s stuff I can barely remember, that’s not going to mean diddly to young voters

Ooo watch out, Priti Patel jokes “some of our best leaders have been the smallest” as she’s given booster step to stand on. Ambitious?
