Schengen, Shaun and shenanigans

BONG! From today, you can drive from Lisbon to Tallinn without a passport. Which is extraordinary, given that 60 years ago you'd have needed a tank and a dose of megalomania. We're still reeling from the fact there's now a Polish food aisle in Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbury's. Given they can go to Lisbon, why the hell do they end up in Peckham?

BONG! Want to see Caroline Nokes speared for her charity shenanigans? You can here. The Guardian's having a pop, too.

BONG! How Journalism Works Now: a comment on LabourHome has led to dark whisperings of a New Year coup against El Gordo. The comment was posted by "12345678". It's not exactly Deep Throat, is it?

BONG! The police have taken swift and retributive action against those responsible for the unlawful killing of Jean Charles de Menezes. Haven't they? Oh. No.

BONG! Shaun Woodward makes an unusual excursion into public scrutiny and suggests an inquiry into the Omagh investigation snafu.

BONG! Happy Christmas, El Gordo. From a grateful nation.

BONG! Sir Cyril Taylor's lost his job. Recruited by Ken Baker, wooed by Blair, ditched by Brown?
