I think that in the 'handle' function you should be putting the code in
a 'while' loop:

      def handle(self):
          # The client has opened a socket to the server.
          while True:
              data = self.request.recv(1024)
              if not data:
                  # The client has closed the socket to the server.
                  break
              ...
