A weekly digest of the events in Parliament with Daniela Maoate-Cox and Phil Smith. This week: Daniela has some highlights from the final Parliamentary debate of the year - officially it's about whether or not to adjourn for Christmas.

Produced by Philippa Tolley. It's that time of year again when we'll be decking the halls with boughs of plastic holly and binning the Christmas crackers toys within seconds of ripping them open.

For our final Insight programme of the year, we've decided to do a bit of recycling of our own and play again one of your favourite Insight programmes from 2018.
