UK MP Hilary Benn has given one of the finest speeches Westminster has heard in years in the debate over Syria. It will go down as a defining moment in the fight against Daesh and proves that bombing alone is not the answer. Watch it. It’s how politics can be, when done right.

Goff has attempted to throw a fire-cracker into the notion of the National Party leadership and caucus being one big happy family.
