Naz Shah - she did a great speech last time

Lweji during the G8 gathering at Gleneagles in 2005 my rural house was on the helicopter flight path from Prestwick airport.
We knew when George Bush went over as his was surrounded by Apache helicopter gunships. There were a few musings about what would happen if we had a wee daytime fireworks display with some rockets. I assumed we'd have been blown up and it covered up as an unfortunate fire on a farm.

Across and Hold I am not saying the toadlike one has not said sensible things about Trump (even a stopped clock and all that)

But 'fine Politician' - nah! (obv just my opinion and other opinions in Scotland are available!

seriously though, it shouldn't be about the personality but the content.
Trump is all about the personality.

I'm surprised you were allowed to remain there, Peri!

Marine Le Pen's Front National headquarters raided by police

Twitter video of protests. Wish I was near London.

And a photo. The tweet says thousands but can't see that many...

The new normal:

1. Wait for a draft memo of a proposal to be leaked to the press.

1. Refuse to comment when asked about the draft.
2. Wait to dispute a story's accuracy until the story is published.
3. Accuse the press of never having sought comment to begin with.

Ah, that reminds me of when I drove past a large banque national de Paris' office in London which had a huge BNP above the door. I'd worked in the city for yonks so it didn't register with me.

My sister (charity worker) was in the car - "just look at those bastards! I can't believe it!!! (head out of window) you bastards!!!!..." How we laughed.

Don't know if this has already been posted:

Russian ambassador to UN Vitaly Churkin dead: Diplomat dies suddenly in New York
www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/russian-ambassador-un-vitaly-churkin-dead-diplomat-dies-suddenly-new-york-puton-a7590366.html

Just heard it on the radio as well. No news on the cause but Russian officials do seem to be having a spate of sudden deaths recently.

That can 'turn' so easily, though, woman.

Edward Leigh sounds like a buffoon.

Le Pen seems to be misusing EU funds. Not dissimilar from Farage. Hate the Institution, but profit as much as possible from it.

"French police were searching the headquarters of Marine Le Pen’s far-right Front National west of Paris on Monday in relation to an investigation into the alleged misuse of European Union funds to pay parliamentary assistants, an FN official told Reuters."

What has the poor Ambassador done?

Kudos to brave Tulip Siddiq. (agree on gruesome Leigh).

Tulip Siddiq is really good here too. Telling any trump observers the protests are not fake news

I'm in parliament square. It's pretty packed and loud. How is the debate going?

I like Tulip Siddiq.

Glad people are mentioning fake news. That's a big point.

Noticed the Conservative speakers seem similar...

Tory side of the debate are sounding like a hive mind of mansplainers.

Hello badkitten! Hope it's going well out there tonight.

Ooh, send us another pic Kitten

Starts preparing new thread...

Thank Goodness, ami.
