I've tweeted Richard Bairwell in case it's a PublicWhip issue

Looks like it's a PW issue relating to loading in the "redirect" entries within members/people.json (PW doesn't cope with this at the moment) . Seeing how this can be patched.

rbairwell commented 6 years ago

Fixed.

Closing. Might be worth letting @rbairwell know about any ParlParse changes which are expected to impact PublicWhip?

Redirects have existed in people.json since May 2015; I believed I had updated the PW code to cope (and indeed hadn't had any issues until this one), so perhaps the underlying issue is something else. Perhaps something is referring to a redirecting person ID rather than the redirected, which shouldn't happen, not sure.
