MPs have voted to allow the use of Twitter during Commons debates after parliamentary authorities moved to ban it in January.

On Thursday, MPs voted by 206 votes to 63 against a move to block the use of Twitter. Speaking against Twitter, the Conservative MP Sir Alan Haselhurst said he appreciated his position might make him "a leading candidate for the dinosaur of the year award".
