Today the PM will come to the Commons and take questions from all sides as to the governments approach to action against Isil. As always he will take questions from all sides.
At the same time William Hague has written a robust piece in the telegraph as to why he supports action:http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/syria/12014935/We-were-wrong-about-Iraq.-But-were-not-wrong-on-Syria.html

The Home Secretary and the argument for enhanced surveillance powers for our security services that are needed
After Paris everyone is genuinely in shock in parliament.
Yesterday the Home Secretary gave a statement to the Commons: the text is here:

The Home Secretary had the full support of the House of Commons.
The issue of the capacity of our country's security services being able to monitor and combat the threat to our safety will not go away.
Boris John son also wrote a good piece for yesterdays Telegraph. It is hard to disagree with much of what he says. I certainly am 100% behind the need for better surveillance powers for our security services. There is genuinely a need, and genuinely no alternative.
