Not only has the PM spent over £50,000 of taxpayers money on advertising her awful deal on social media, she has dispatched her ministers across the land to try and flog some life into that dead horse.

According to a written cabinet office reply the actual amount spent was £52,509. Now, although the government points out that this is just a drop in the ocean of its £300 million communications budget, it is still a lot of money to spend on trying to hawk a proverbial deceased parrot.
Especially when you know it’s dead, you know that everyone else knows it’s dead, you know that no-one wants to buy it and the last rites have already been administered.
And the amusing bit for me is that some of that advertising money is being spent on my YouTube channel!
Not only that she’s sending out the likes of the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, the Health Secretary, Matt Hancock and the Brexit secretary, Steve Barclay, (who?) out of the Westminster bubble and into the wilds of the provinces to try and convert the natives into backing her deal.
But the reality is that, barring a miracle for her, she will lose the vote and the question is only how heavy that defeat will be.
So there is now talk of pushing the vote out further into the future, wasting more days to give space for Mrs May to spend more time, and more money presumably, on trying to get support and to tinker about with her deal to try and put something out there, something that more than just her party coat-tail hangers-on will sign up to.
She may be spending lots of taxpayers’ money on advertising and travel budgets, but she is also spending heavily into the red on ..
