Photography reminds me that, despite all its difficulties, this is still a beautiful world:
A set of my favourite photos of 2013 is here.
It’s been an eventful year in Parliament: my colleague Douglas Carswell provides a good summary. Great forces continue to work themselves out in our economy, society and political system: Parliament appears to be rising slowly to their challenges.
I look forward to 2014. In the meantime, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
