Dear @SkyNews There are lots of MEPs. Why don’t you ever cut away to them? @julie4nw @TheresaMEP @ChrisDaviesLD @SHKMEP @GinaDowdingMEP

Dear Damian, This is absolute codswallop & you know it . Proroguing parliament is the hallmark of a dictator. Parliamentary sovereignty is key to a functioning democracy. Plus of course scrutiny. How can you push this angle ?Stand up for our constitution!

The Government has agreed to give £20 million of tax payers money to test alternative arrangements to the #Brexit backstop (ie chase unicorns) whilst refusing to give our police an extra £15 million to tackle the knife crime crisis (ie save lives) #disgraceful @TheIndGroup

You continue to miss the point. Flying me, a British politician, out to speak for citizens of a continent I have never lived on is more of the same patronising fluff. Please invite an African filmmaker, celebrity, farmer, teacher or businessperson to make a film in my place.

If as reported the PM is going to pull this weeks vote it would breach a solumn undertaking made at the dispatch box and would be an act showing utter contempt of Parliament

Remember, this is just one of multiple ongoing criminal investigations into @arron_banks. The political denial over this & Vote Leave’s record-breaking fraud is breathtaking. It was an unsafe vote & your elected representatives know it

This is horrible. Everything is stymied by the inability of both leaders to admit that there is nothing objectively better for the UK than EU membership. We're arguing over silver & bronze medals while pretending that gold doesn't exist.

Irresponsible nonsense. The 15 yobs who have been roaming outside Parliament do not represent anyone but themselves. It’s shameful to validate them in this way. Right wing extremists have always existed #Brexit is just an excuse - this is their real agenda

There are few things more disgusting than a Home Secretary using the miserable desperation of a small number of refugees as an opportunity to promote his leadership ambitions. We must treat those seeking sanctuary in the same way that we would wish to be treated.

People aren’t stupid they will see this as an irresponsible waste of their money - blatant political blackmail. A responsible PM would take “no deal” #Brexit off the table NOW! And put @theresa_may ‘s “deal” v Remain to a @peoplesvote_uk

And lo, unto her did appear a host of Corbyn defenders, who did descend upon her mentions, and she was not sore afraid, because she was used to it. And the host did sing with one voice, ‘ungodly woman, thou foolest us not. We know the true reason thou despisest Saint Jeremy.’ 1

It's been a hard last few weeks & it's down to all of you that we remain steadfast & unflinching.
Let history treat those that inflicted this on us with the contempt they deserve.
When BREXIT is Stopped (& it will be) somehow we have to unite.
Thank you & Merry Christmas.

Press assumed Gatwick chaos was caused by "a wanker with a drone". And apparently so did police. The truth looks much more sinister. We now know this was a complex, sophisticated operation that has thwarted both our civilian & military defences

Two people arrested in conjunction with the widespread disruption of flights at Gatwick Airport through the illegal use of drones have been released without charge.

Corbyn knows full well EU state aid rules don’t get in the way of Labour manifesto.
Here he is admitting that @johnmcdonnellMP has looked into it & there’s no problem.
Yet in his Guardian interview he *still* brings up state aid rules. #ExcuseForBrexit
