The wisdom of Emily Thornberry
Jonathan Calder asks a pertinent question about this story: Why doesn’t the BBC name Emily Thornberry?
As he says, the matter is published on the Parliament website. It’s a bit odd when the BBC are being even more secretive than Parliament.
I’m not clear whether this is intended to protect her or mischievously give the story legs.

Much as I’d like to imagine mischief, I imagine it’s a case of cut and pasting the story from Philip Mawer’s report and not considering that there might be more information available elsewhere.

Quite possibly, but in many ways that is so much worse. It certainly isn’t journalism.
