Writing extensions for Chrome is so refreshingly simple it’s exciting. So as a result I produced another one and this time for a slightly more specialised use. If you’re UK-based and interested in politics then this plugin will enable you to keep tabs on your MP with their latest parliamentary updates and links to further info.

If anyone had suggestions I’d love to hear them.
