Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications
Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications Jessica R. Adolino, Ph. D. Professor of Political Science James Madison University Draft prepared for presentation at the European Studies Association Annual Meeting May 9-12, 2019, Denver, Colorado Please do not cite or distribute without author’s permission. By almost any measure, since the immediate aftermath of the June 16, 2016 Brexit referendum, the British government has been in a state of chaos. The turmoil began with then- Prime Minister David Cameron’s resignation on June 17 and succession by Theresa May within days of the vote. Subsequently, May’s decision to call a snap election in 2017 and the resulting loss of the Conservatives’ parliamentary majority cast doubt on her leadership and further stirred up dissension in her party’s ranks. Perhaps more telling, and the subject of this paper, is the unprecedented number of ministers1—from both senior and junior ranks—that quit the May government over Brexit-related policy disagreements2. Between June 12, 2017 and April 3, 2019, the government witnessed 45 resignations, with high-profile secretaries of state and departmental ministers stepping down to return to the backbenches. Of these, 34 members of her government, including 9 serving in the Cabinet, departed over issues with some aspect of Brexit, ranging from dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister’s Withdrawal Agreement, to disagreements about the proper role of Parliament, to questions about the legitimacy of the entire Brexit process. All told, Theresa May lost more ministers, and at a more rapid pace, than any other prime minister in modern times. -
Media Release ------For Immediate Release ------North Yorkshire Mps Support the Call for the Introduction of a Pharmacy Minor Ailments Scheme
Media Release -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For Immediate Release -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ North Yorkshire MPs Support the Call For the Introduction Of A Pharmacy Minor Ailments Scheme. During December 2014 and January 2015 Julian Sturdy (MP for Outer York), Hugh Bayley (MP for York Central), Robert Goodwill (MP for Scarborough and Whitby), Andrew Jones (MP for Harrogate and Knaresborough), Julian Smith (MP for Skipton and Ripon) and Nigel Adams (MP for Selby and Ainsty) all visited Pharmacies within their respective constituencies. The purpose of each visit was to encourage people to use their local pharmacies to their fullest extent. This is because they are a convenient alternative to GPs and A&E when it comes to minor ailments such as, coughing, respiratory problems, colds and sore throats. After discussion regarding how a minor aliments scheme would work in practice, all participating MPs agreed that the introduction of such a scheme in North Yorkshire would only benefit those willing to take advantage of it. The MPs also support Community Pharmacy North Yorkshire’s decision to open discussion with the Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in the North Yorkshire area to implement the scheme ASAP. Minor ailments are defined as, ‘common or self-limiting or uncomplicated conditions which can be diagnosed and managed without medical intervention’.1 Pharmacy based services to treat such ailments were introduced locally across the UK more than ten years ago2 to reduce the burden of minor ailments on higher cost settings such as general practice and the A&E departments of hospitals. Consultations for minor ailments are less expensive when provided 1 Self care: an ethical imperative. -

Submission to the Consultation on the City of York Council’S Draft Local Plan
Submission to the Consultation on the City of York Council’s Draft Local Plan Julian Sturdy MP 31st July 2013 Julian Sturdy MP Draft Local Plan Consultation Submission Part I – Greenbelt Policies Fundamental to the Council’s approach to the draft Local Plan has been the repeated argument that if York does not have an adopted Local Plan with a defined greenbelt in place by 2015, the greenbelt could be subjected to unrestrained development and that the Council are defining the greenbelt for the very first time. It will be argued in Part I of this submission that this is not the case. York does have an established greenbelt, which the Council are not seeking to define, but ‘re-define’. The government have also been clear that the York greenbelt policies of the now-revoked Regional Spatial Strategy will be retained until the greenbelt is defined within a Local Plan. While York’s greenbelt very clearly needs to be adopted in the form of a Local Plan, the need for urgency on this should not be used as an excuse or a mandate to radically alter what has for so many years been York’s greenbelt. The following points will reiterate this in greater detail: 1.1.1 Para 79 of the NPPF explicitly states “The Government attaches great importance to Green Belts. The fundamental aim of Green Belt policy is to prevent urban sprawl by keeping land permanently open; the essential characteristics of Green Belts are their openness and their permanence.” Great weight is attached to the importance of greenbelts in protecting both our cities and our rural communities from urban and suburban sprawl. -

Regional Development in Yorkshire and the Humber (F)
Rev: May 10th, 2016 Amy Cogan Wares Regional Development in Yorkshire and the Humber (F) In the spring of 2010 the parliamentary elections in the United Kingdom gave the victory to the Conservative party, ending two terms of Labour governments, the founders of the RDAs. Soon after the following article was published in the BBC news1: Yorkshire Forward development agency axed in Budget Yorkshire Forward has 450 staff at five offices across the region. The body charged with attracting investment to the Yorkshire and Humber region is to be abolished. Yorkshire Forward is among nine regional development agencies (RDAs) in England which will be replaced with Local Enterprise Partnerships. The government confirmed its intention as it unveiled its Budget on Tuesday. The process will begin with a white paper to be published later this year. Yorkshire Forward, which has 450 staff, has not yet commented on the decision. The agency was set up in 1999 to further economic development and regeneration in the region and has an annual budget of £277m. “I don't believe that is delivering the value that we need in our region, especially under these very difficult financial times that we face at the moment”. Julian Sturdy York Outer MP Rosie Winterton, Labour MP for Doncaster Central, said Yorkshire forward had been valuable. She said: "For every pound of public money that the RDA spent they created something like £4.50 in return for their local economy. "So it is wise investment but also you do need, when we are planning for growth in the future, to be able to have a regional vision of what is needed." Julian Sturdy, Conservative MP for York Outer, said it was time for the agency to go. -
