The Spectator(@spectator):It was back to the future in the House of Commons today. After their weeks of backslapping and self-delusion, MPs were back in parliament and indulging in a full-blown nostalgia overload. That's right – traumatic for those of us who had to report on it and downright tedious for everyone else – the Brexit wars were back. Burnham had spent the last week focused on foreign affairs, including a trip to the UN. But he'd also found time to go on the Rest is Politics podcast for a cosy fireside chat with the Lord Haw Haw and Tokyo Rose of Centrist Broadcasting Delusion. ✍️ Madeline Grant Article | https://t.co/EV5oNSImgr
