  • Lettre Conjointe De 1.080 Parlementaires De 25 Pays Européens Aux Gouvernements Et Dirigeants Européens Contre L'annexion De La Cisjordanie Par Israël
    Lettre conjointe de 1.080 parlementaires de 25 pays européens aux gouvernements et dirigeants européens contre l'annexion de la Cisjordanie par Israël 23 juin 2020 Nous, parlementaires de toute l'Europe engagés en faveur d'un ordre mondial fonde ́ sur le droit international, partageons de vives inquietudeś concernant le plan du president́ Trump pour le conflit israeló -palestinien et la perspective d'une annexion israélienne du territoire de la Cisjordanie. Nous sommes profondement́ preoccuṕ eś par le preć edent́ que cela creerait́ pour les relations internationales en geń eral.́ Depuis des decennies,́ l'Europe promeut une solution juste au conflit israeló -palestinien sous la forme d'une solution a ̀ deux Etats,́ conformement́ au droit international et aux resolutionś pertinentes du Conseil de securit́ e ́ des Nations unies. Malheureusement, le plan du president́ Trump s'ecarté des parametres̀ et des principes convenus au niveau international. Il favorise un controlê israelień permanent sur un territoire palestinien fragmente,́ laissant les Palestiniens sans souverainete ́ et donnant feu vert a ̀ Israel̈ pour annexer unilateralement́ des parties importantes de la Cisjordanie. Suivant la voie du plan Trump, la coalition israelienné recemment́ composeé stipule que le gouvernement peut aller de l'avant avec l'annexion des̀ le 1er juillet 2020. Cette decisioń sera fatale aux perspectives de paix israeló -palestinienne et remettra en question les normes les plus fondamentales qui guident les relations internationales, y compris la Charte des Nations unies. Nous sommes profondement́ preoccuṕ eś par l'impact de l'annexion sur la vie des Israelienś et des Palestiniens ainsi que par son potentiel destabilisateuŕ dans la regioń aux portes de notre continent.

As in 2013 we received a superb welcome from the city. We continue to ask all attendees to complete an online feedback questionnaire. A good percentage complete this but I would urge all members to take the time to participate. It is incredibly useful to the conference office and FCC and does influence whether we visit a venue again and if we do, what changes we need to try and make. FCC Changes Following the committee elections at the end of last year there were a number of changes to the membership of FCC. Qassim Afzal, Louise Bloom, Sal Brinton, Prateek Buch, Veronica German, Evan Harris and David Rendel either did not restand or were not re-elected. All played a valuable role on FCC and will be missed. We welcome Jon Ball, Zoe O’Connell and Mary Reid onto the committee as directly elected members. FPC have elected two new representatives onto FCC and we welcome back Linda Jack and Jeremy Hargreaves in these roles. Both have previously served on FCC so are familiar with the way we work. One of the FE reps is also new with Kaavya Kaushik joining James Gurling as an FE rep on FCC.

  • Nicol Stephen Speech to Liberal Democrats Spring Conference 2008
    Nicol Stephen Speech to Liberal Democrats Spring Conference 2008 As we meet here in Aviemore we have good reasons to be confident. In Nick Clegg an outstanding new leader, with an inspirational first conference speech determined to double our number of MPs at Westminster And in our MPs the strongest team of powerful campaigners. To one of whom I give special mention today. He gave exceptional leadership at a time when our party needed it the most. Menzies Campbell has given huge commitment to this party and we give him our heartfelt thanks. At Holyrood, we now have five new MSPs – a young, positive, dynamic team and most spectacular of all our outstanding success in Dunfermline for Jim Tolson MSP – until this week the biggest earthquake we had seen for a generation. Reasons to be confident And none more so than our growing strength in local government Those Labour fiefdoms swept away after decades of one party rule. Now 13 councils with Liberal Democrats in government And some of Scotland’s most important councils led by Liberal Democrats the great cities of Edinburgh and Aberdeen; Aberdeenshire council all led by Liberal Democrats Our councillors do a fantastic job. We should thank all 167 of them for all that they have done - and do - to build the strength of our party. The biggest reason of all for our confidence and optimism is an enduring one. It is about what unites us all It is about liberalism The rights of the individual, decentralising power, fighting for communities standing up against injustice freedom, fairness, honesty the great values of liberal democracy.

    Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Local Government Aileen Campbell MSP T: 0300 244 4000 E: [email protected] Councillor Alison Evison President COSLA Verity House 19 Haymarket Yards Edinburgh EH12 5BH Email to: [REDACTED]@cosla.gov.uk ___ 2 July 2019 Dear Allison Thank you for your letter of 18 June about support for local authorities to help them prepare for a potential UK exit from the EU. I appreciate your welcome for the additional funding, totalling £1.6 million, that my colleagues and I have agreed to give local authorities for this purpose. This is additional to the fact that local government has along with other Scottish Government portfolios benefited from the £54.7 million of EU Exit funding consequentials, including the consequentials from the additional funding for councils announced by the UK Government mentioned in your letter, that were allocated through the 2019-20 Scottish Budget. I acknowledge the concerns that exist in local government and indeed all parts of the devolved public sector, including the Scottish Government, about the possible implications of EU exit and the absorption of additional costs in preparation. The outlook of course remains uncertain. As the position becomes clearer I and my officials will continue to maintain the fruitful and regular dialogue that we have been having with you, your officials and other local government stakeholders about EU exit preparation. Kind regards AILEEN CAMPBELL Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Local Government Aileen Campbell MSP T: 0300 244 4000 E: [email protected] Councillor Alison Evison President COSLA Verity House 19 Haymarket Yards Edinburgh EH12 5BH Email to: [REDACTED]@cosla.gov.uk ___ 25 June 2019 Dear Alison I am writing to follow up your discussion with the Cabinet Secretary for Government Business and Constitutional Relations in February about consultative arrangements for local government to replace those that currently exist through the Committee of the Regions after The UK leaves the EU.

It is a task that has taken just over a year and seen my colleagues and me travelling the length and breadth of Scotland. It has been very hard work – but also very rewarding. Many of the issues are complex, but at the heart of this is our desire to find ways to help improve the lives of the people of Scotland. The reward has been in meeting so many people and discussing the issues with them – at formal evidence sessions, at informal meetings, and at engagement events across the country.
