Yesterday saw the Government reach a compromise with Peers over the devolution aspects of the UK Internal Market Bill. The Lords were standing strong over an amendment on Common Frameworks - so what has been agreed & where do we go now? 🧵

Both the Scottish and Welsh Parliaments have refused consent for the bill under the Sewel Convention. The SP is very unlikely to change it's mind, the Welsh? It's not looking promising 👇

Hugely grateful to peers for their defence of devolution and acknowledge that UKG has moved a little.

But the Bill still allows UK Ministers to undermine right of @SeneddWales to make laws and policies which reflect the priorities of the people they serve.https://t.co/bpN3C1io8Q
Theses are 2 separate programme of work, the first run by BEIS, the second in policy departments with oversight from the Cabinet Office - but they are now linked in law. Serious thought must be given to make them coherent
Intergovernmental disputes over the application of the UKIM bill are inevitable. Common frameworks have their own dispute resolution procedures, BEIS has structures & we're waiting on the outcome of the IGR review. Any processes must be fair

The Manatee-Sarasota area has many connections to the horrific scene of insurrection in Washington DC yesterday. Want to see? Buckle up for this thread: /1
The Manatee GOP expressed support for Josh Hawley’s objections to certification of the electoral college vote. /2
Josh Hawley’s home-state newspaper says Hawley has blood on his hands for a “Capitol coup attempt.” This is who the Manatee GOP cheered on.
Florida GOP Vice Chair & Sarasota County Commissioner Christian Ziegler was at the protest, as described in this @HeraldTribune article.
The protest was led by the same people connected to Ziegler who were filming outside the Vern Buchanan town hall at the Van Wezel in Sarasota in 2017, namely Dustin Stockton. Stockton was also part of Steve Bannon's border wall group. /5
