Today, the Labour walked out of a Shadow Cabinet meeting, it has been reported, after the daft text of the party's EU election literature wasn't shown.
At some point, Labour has to have a position and stick to it. It should be the party of remain, as in remaining, human and worker's rights will be protected from erosion by the state.
But as stated on numerous occasions, Corbyn wants Brexit, as he seems to believe EU rules forbid stat intervention in industry. Which is not the case. In fact WTO rules are stricter about this, but hey.
Corbyn was supposed to campaign for Remain, as it was the party policy, but did go on holiday, and wasn't exactly enthusiastic when he did appear.
There are 23 days until the EU election, so time is sticking. Again.
And the Conservative Party have formed a new working group looking into alternative arrangements for the border. One hopes that this will be different, and better thought out than the previous attempts. Its not a high bar to get over, but I'm not hopeful.
And with so much to do, The Commons rose at 16:19 today having completed its business for the day.
And still no sign of the Queen's speech, or a suggestion of when, or if, it might happen.
No Queen's speech, no new policies. Same old Brexit.
