let's start off with jeremy corbyn comparing theresa may to henry viii.quite like he does this, bear this in mind in the context, labour strategists are trying to get his image as this rallying figure who stands up to authoritarian figures. this is about the royal per of it is, the powers of theresa may to trigger article 50 without getting a vote from parliament —— royal prerogative. this is just before the recess when she was asked three times, will you give mpsa she was asked three times, will you give mps a vote in parliament, and she dodged it three times. in the end i think she said, i have said what i have said. it was all a bit vague. this row was going on, with the backdrop of the supreme court case, which is about the powers of theresa may or potentially david davis to officially trigger brexit, which she has said she would do by the end of march next year. theresa may as henry viii, quite an image? it is indeed, one good quote can make a story. yes, i mean, will we get the say on the final deal? jeremy corbyn says we should and indeed he has gi

jeremy corbyn has emphasised homelessness.es, ijust wonder whether people are listening to politicians at this time of year. interesting, jeremy corbyn who you mentioned, picking on issues which are mentioned, picking on issues which a re close mentioned, picking on issues which are close to their hearts, i suppose, rather than the big political issues, the big legal issues, don't get me wrong, but homelessness, refugees, brexit obviously the big east, isn't it? yes, but trying to make political issues on a more humanitarian basis, it isa issues on a more humanitarian basis, it is a logical time of year to do that, in the same way that the theresa may's message, and the persecution of christians, why wouldn't you raise that at either christmas or easter? i wonder whether it will resonate further. for theresa may, 2016 was tough enough at that is nothing compared to what is happening in 2017. therein lies the difficulty. straightaway she has the supreme court decision to deal with. she has to sort out how to trigger article 50
