CHAGOS SURRENDER UPDATE The House of Lords has condemned the Treaty in the strongest possible language. The government can still push ahead, but it has been asked to think again. There will now be ping-pong over the amendments that Starmer regards as incompatible with what he has signed. Once again, the lack of enthusiasm from the Labour benches is striking. One distinguished Labour peer, with a background in defence, defied his whip to vote with us. Keir Starmer, Richard Hermer and the Doughty Street/Matrix Chambers clique can still push ahead, but it is clear that they have no support and no arguments. Now is a good moment to lobby your MP in advance of the ping-pong.

To grasp the utter poverty of Labour’s position on Chagos, listen to Yvette Cooper here. She can’t defend the surrender. She doesn’t even try. Instead, she falls back on childish insults, ludicrously suggesting that Andrew Rosindell MP 🇬🇧🏴, of all people, is somehow unpatriotic.

As Nicolás Maduro's regime crumbles, all eyes are on María Corina Machado, leader of Venezuela's democratic forces, in hiding since last year's stolen elections. She spoke to Tory MPs about her life on the run and her vision of a free Venezuela. Full video here:

Few outside Pakistan are aware of the atrocities being committed there. Soldiers are firing live rounds at peaceful protesters. Dozens, maybe hundreds, have been killed. Friends of Pakistan, and friends of democracy, cannot let this go on. #FreeImranKhan #IslamabadMassacre 🇬🇧🇵🇰

If you are British, watch this clip and hang your head in shame. Committee stage in the Lords starts today, and I will be challenging every clause in the treaty. But Labour is determined to push it through, and the Conservatives don't have the numbers to stop it.

Britain does not recognise Venezuela's stolen election or Maduro's dictatorship. So will we evict the Bolivarian squatters from the Venezuelan embassy and make the Bank of England gold reserves available to the legitimate regime? María Corina Machado #HastaElFinal #ConVzla

The world is colder, greyer and grimmer without Tom Lehrer in it.
