If Corbyn truly believed in democracy, he’d roundly condemn today’s ‘Day of Rage’, organised by the storm troops of the hard Left to bring London to a halt and help overthrow the Government.

The decision of consumer goods giant Unilever to abandon plans for the relocation of its corporate headquarters from London to Rotterdam is a spectacular victory on every conceivable level.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: The inquiry into allegations of a VIP sex abuse ring codenamed Operation Midland ranks as the most disgraceful episode in the recent history of the Metropolitan Police.

So this is it. We have arrived at the moment when Parliament can finally end this Brexit purgatory. Alternatively, they could continue to put petty politics before the national interest.
