Any reason why Angus MacNeil wouldn't have been given any role despite the fact he's been an MP since 2005? I would have assumed that the 'original' 6 would all have gotten something.

The same halfwits bawling about them taking the oath would be the same halfwits bawling if they refused to take the oath and couldn't take their place in the Commons.

Very few i expect,perhaps she should have picked her words more carefull.
