What did come out of this meeting however is the genuine disgust the Lords had towards this whole shambles. I'm not overstepping my rights when I state that Lord Forsyth is v clearly disgusted by the whole matter.
However, as DC states, Old podgy and spreadsheet aren't going to back down. They simply cant as to do so now would be to admit previously lying to parliament and of course they wont do that. Once they have dug a hole so deep the only way out is to keep digging.
My own thoughts though are that politicians worry about 1 thing ahead of everything else and that is their own career. Once May goes (as she clearly is doing) then Hammond goes. Once Hammond goes then PP goes as hes simply a puppet for Hammond (im not sure he realises just yet but his recent comment about the LC preceding him indicates he's catching on).
Now that means the next person in his role has 2 options - 1/take on a role and be instantly hated by 100k families or 2/take on a role and be a hero way beyond what is normal in such circles.
Like I say, they always look after themselves, this time such a thing may be useful. We have big hitters such as DD publicly stating that he will only endorse people if they assist our fight.
All of this means, whilst its still an uphill battle its one with genuine hope. Though to turn that hope into reality we must hope, pray, vote that the above changes occur.
