So there it is: the DfE is cherry-picking data so that only one portion of free schools’ Ofsted judgement profile is publicised. And it appears to be using less successful – and even closed – free schools to bump up the numbers said to have been opened, but which are then not to be counted in assessments of the policy’s success.
If I'm not here, then I'll be in the library. Or the other library.

The important vote was back in March,and Labour was on the wrong side.
There might have been some fun embarrassing the Tories, but that is just politics as a game.
Giving powers to the government to enact legislation without oversight is trivial?????
It is completely inevitable given the vote on art 50. Nobody has suggested any alternative (unless it is Remain).

Isn't giving Parliament a meaningful vote on the exit deal an alternative to what the government is proposing in the repeal bill currently before the House?
A repeal bill of some description is necessary, but this particular repeal bill really isn't.

A highly predictable take.
Of course, the reality is that Labour voting against A50 was never a feasible option - and wouldn't have been whoever the leader was.
For the "people have spoken" reasons that Flint and Field now invoke.

Unbelievable.
Just to cheer you up, Suella Fernandes has been speaking on Brexit. The EU was bad for democracy, you know.

Giving the government powers to bypass committees and votes in the house to pass any legislation they see fit is "inevitable"? I suggest you watch Bryant's speech.
