Umunna's issued an invite: "We invite you to leave your parties and forge a new political consensus for Britain".

You're going to need a bigger box of popcorn.

That's the NF party!

Given a big name like Chucka Umunna has jumped you can see more following. Can also see some Tories going too now to join them.

Time to get the popcorn out

Yep: UK MPs Chuka Umunna, Luciana Berger, Chris Leslie, Angela Smith, Mike Gapes, Gavin Shuker and Ann Coffey quit Labour
If the British voting system wouldn't be so ridiculously undemocratic, they would stand a chance forming a new party, unfortunately due to the FPtP they will be replaced by Corbyn yes nodding drones in the next election

...and they've gone

I think they may well be joined by some Tory remoaners.

It's all a bit meh isn't it ... I mean, who really cares which weasel leads the Tory scum? they're only not being trashed in the polls because Corbyn is just as useless. If he stood down and a more moderate Labour leader stepped in the Tories would be on their knees by now.

There will be a new true blue, purist Brexit Tory party for the next GE.

It's in the express, so it must be true. (Not that I doubt that Boris would do anything to move into #10)

Not sure JRM wants what you refer to as a hard brexit (No Deal). True he wants a harder brexit than what May's deal currently gives, but listening to him recently he would rather have a deal than no deal.

And how do you know this?

JRM, like all Brexiters, only appears to have a list of what he doesn't want, and has no clue of what he wants for the UK. (For himself, he's happy if the UK crashes, his money is invested in Europe)

BRINO?

Rees-Mogg wants a hard exit; Johnson doesn't care and will support whichever option gets him into No 10.

There we have it, the ERG will cave, Jacob-Rees Mogg and Boris Johnson will take over and blame Brino on May.
