Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe there are loads of votes in “the Ed Miliband agenda, but we tell anyone who liked Ed Miliband they are dirty liberals who should be ashamed”.

Guys, remember to put your lists together and run them by Cooper so you know what you're allowed to say is irritating.

Remember, folks, if you risk the dangerous journey you're accused of deliberately bringing your children to avoid deportation. Whereas if you take the journey alone with the idea if your family coming later when it's safe, you're lone and "fighting age".
BBC News: "the government believe refugees are deliberately bringing their children to avoid deportation"

As opposed to doing what with their children??

as a reporter, the part of this that i’ve simply never understood is how the next person to ask a question when he does something like this doesn’t simply repeat the question that set him off. it’s not just solidarity with your colleague, it’s an important question that remains worth asking
