More than a dozen Saudi servicemen training at various American military facilities will be expelled from the US after officials conducted an investigation in the wake of the December Naval Air Station Pensacola shooting.

4. Dozens of Tory MPs stage last ditch attempt to persuade Parliament to allow Big Ben to ‘bong’ for Brexit

(Only in a socialist country can it cost £120,000 to ring a bell once. Maybe once they leave the EU whatever regulation makes it cost so much can be ignored and they can just push a button or tug on a rope)

Dozens of Tory MPs are staging a last ditch attempt to persuade Parliament to allow Big Ben to ‘bong’ at the moment Britain leaves the European Union later this month.

In a letter to today’s Sunday Telegraph, 60 MPs say that the Great Bell must sound at 11pm on January 31 to provide Remainers and Leavers with “closure” after three years of Brexit bitterness.

 

The decision could be made as early as tomorrow when MPs and officials on the House of Commons Commission which meet for its last scheduled meeting before Brexit day.

However Commission was reluctant to allow Big Ben to sound when Brexit was mooted on two previous occasions – March 29 and October 31 – and signs were not hopeful last night.

 

A spokesman told The Telegraph last night that it could cost at least £120,000 to prepare the Great Bell to chime while contractors needed 14 days to carry out the work ahead of January 31.

5. French lawyers are throwing their robes on the ground as the Minister of Justice is speaking in France

(The claim is that merging pension plans of lawyers with the general public will double the cost of the payments by lawyers thereby hurting firms that do pro bono work for the poor. Or in other words, they don’t want their pension plan which they paid for, screwed with by making it a more or less general revenue thing where it will disappear most likely and cost them twice as much)

6. Pelosi does some dementia spin doctoring

Thank you Miss Piggy, M., Wrath of Khan, ML., Pym Purnell, Richard, EB., ET., and all who contributed this weekend. 

the above tweet is not a fair turn around. Fascism was a form of Marxism by people who felt Marx didn’t go far enough in crushing people who stood in the way of creating the new man and destroying the old one. Communist icons are perfectly appropriate at a Corbyn event.

This is good:

A Royal I told you so
