    Re May bringing her vote several times, it has been convention for centuries that the House can only resolve a matter once in any session. It's an important means of preventing gov't from bullying Commons. So an identical or near identical motion should be out of order.

    We troll bots for a living. This one made 3.7M unsuccessful HTTP requests in 24 hrs, and we responded to each with a js cryptographic challenge, which effectively tarpits the bot by sucking up CPU resources. Expensive, Lambda CPU resources. This guy's AWS bill is going to be nuts

    This is truly amazing. The Justice Department admits that, under Trump, it effectively made up and misstated information to link immigrants to terrorism, but that it won't retract or correct the culprit report.

    My shipping company - - is now up & running. I'm not sure who set up the website but they listen to the show so they must be alright and we don't have any T&Cs yet but if you read the Domino's ones & swap 'pizza' for 'cargo' we'll be cool. Send money now.

    So 'taking back control' meant giving it to 125,000 people with an average of 72 who have paid to be members of the Conservative Party. Someone should have said.

    And this, in case anyone was wondering, is why Remainers like Hunt & Javid are abandoning their constituents & convictions. Their leadership dreams rest on the support of these people. Career before country. All day long.

    Am I the only one thinking this sudden fuss over people crossing the channel is remarkably similar to the “migrant caravan” used by Trump to whip up panic ahead of the US Midterms?

    Make no mistake, this is not in response to genuine concern for human life. This is imitating Donald Trump's "migrant caravan" manufactured emergency to whip up fear before the Brexit vote. Desperate and cynical.

    This is, frankly, astonishing - and sneaking it out in the holidays suggests they know this only too well. The Dover port authority took out ads at the *Conservative Conference* to explain most of this and now the Conservative Government calls it 'unforeseeable'. 1/2

    In nearly 20 years of politics I've never seen our country so divided. This Christmas I hope we can be inspired by the great story of the 20th century. The huge strides towards freedom for all peoples that were made possible by everyday people coming together. Merry Christmas.

    What would you sacrifice to avoid the embarrassment of admitting you’ve made a massive mistake? Brexit is now being driven by people who would sacrifice the economic health of our country, the freedoms of our families & the security of our population. Instead of saying sorry.

    Just to be clear. If anyone else had done that it would have been unacceptable sexism. But Jeremy Corbyn did it. So it’s fine.
