Summer recess is effectively cancelled at Holyrood; Presiding Officer writes to MSPs to say there will continue to be weekly virtual question sessions through the summer, and any "major government announcements" will continue to be made in parliament in "hybrid" meetings in July

Holyrood was due to be in recess from 27 June to 30 August. Parties have unanimously agreed there will instead be virtual meetings every Thursday, plus two first ministerial statements in the chamber in July, and fuller sittings will resume on 11 August (when schools go back)

Then they don’t get represented. Loads of MPs are vulnerable in some way and it’s another 600-odd people travelling up and down the country, mixing then travelling back when there’s a perfectly viable alternative all so our fat mop useless **** of a Prime Minister has a few braying hecklers on his side for PMQs.

I'm surprised Rees Mogg destroying parliamentary democracy isn't seeing more vitriol on here. I might be imagining it but our resident right-wingers do go quiet when the government does something utterly despicable and indefensible. Our government is so corrupt.

That’s because some are so obsessed with a bloke walking around a castle? Other news is not important. The biggest story should be Hong Kong or the US.
