  • Boris Johnson to Become Britain's Next PM
    Boris Johnson to become Britain’s next PM News Boris Johnson Tuesday will be Britain’s next Prime Minister, succeeding Theresa May. More in News ● Johnson’s victory places a hardcore Brexit supporter in charge of the government for the first time since the United Kingdom voted to leave the EU in the shock 2016 referendum. ● The timing of Johnson’s victory is also significant as it comes during one of the most complex and tumultuous junctures in post-World War Two British history. ● The victory is a triumph for the 55-year-old Johnson, an ambitious but erratic politician whose political career has veered between periods in high office and spells on the sidelines. ● Johnson’s victory has two implications: It pushes the United Kingdom towards a Brexit showdown with the European Union (EU) and Towards a constitutional crisis at home, as British lawmakers have vowed to bring down any government that tries to leave the bloc without a divorce deal. India connection ● Johnson’s recently estranged spouse Marina Wheeler, whom he married in 1993, has Indian ancestry, and Johnson has visited India on numerous occasions over the years. Wheeler is the niece of author Khushwant Singh, and the granddaughter of Sir Sobha Singh, one of the major contractors who built Lutyens’s Delhi. On trade ties with India ● On the backdrop of the strenuous Brexit negotiations, the UK is now looking out for new trade deals with its global partners. ● Currently, India-UK trade is worth over $19.7 billion, a number that Johnson appears to be keen at raising.

  • The Smithfield Gazette
    THE SMITHFIELD GAZETTE EDITION 156 April 2016 CITY OF LONDON VOTES TO STAY IN At the Common Council on 3rd March, Chairman of the Policy and Resources Committee, Mark Boleat, presented a report that the City take a position on the EU referendum. The meeting was well attended by public and press. The debate was lengthy and prolonged by a fire alarm. A number of members had to leave before voting for other engagements. An amendment to split the motion to allow more constructive debate was approved. The motion was controversial as it did not allow for a vote to leave the EU. The original wording for the national referendum was over-ruled by the Electoral Commission which insisted on an in or out vote. The bulk support of the Aldermen won the day and decided the issue. Finally the following motion was put forward: "Taking into account views of City stakeholders and businesses, the City of London Corporation supports the UK remaining as a member of the EU." The affirmative vote was successful. A VOTE FOR THE CITY WORKER The referendum dominates discussion all over the UK, workers everywhere realise their vote is powerful and perhaps the most important decision of their lifetime. This time their vote counts, every single vote matters. This individual vote could be the first step to change the way in which the country organises general election voting and prompt City workers to demand the right to vote for the government of the city they work in. The City voting scheme allows companies one vote for every five employees.

  • The Implications of Brexit for Fundamental Rights Protection in the UK
    LSE Commission on the Future of Britain in Europe | 1 European X xxxx Institute The implications of Brexit for fundamental rights protection in the UK Report of the hearing held on 25th February 2016 LSE Commission on the Future of Britain in Europe Rapporteurs: Jo Murkens Sarah Trotter 2 | The implications of Brexit for fundamental rights protection in the UK Foreword This is the report of the sixth session of the LSE Commission on the Future of Britain in Europe, which took place on Thursday 25 February, from 16.30-19.00h. The hearing drew together a number of politicians, academics, practitioners and activists to discuss the question of the implications of Brexit for fundamental rights protection in the UK. Dominic Grieve QC and Marina Wheeler QC presented opening remarks on the British Bill of Rights and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights respectively, and a very rich discussion ensued. Participants presented perspectives on and analyses of the state and fate of fundamental rights protection in the UK, spanning the matters of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, the European Convention on Human Rights, British relations with the Strasbourg Court and the British Bill of Rights. The report seeks to convey the breadth and depth of the very balanced debate that took place at this session. I would like to express my gratitude to the participants for their expert contributions as presented during the session itself and by way of additional papers. Many thanks are also due to Marion Osborne and David Spence for their excellent support and assistance in the organisation of the hearing.

For the first time in our 15 year history we are building a 500 seater marquee as well as our two bigger venues – Christ Church and the Town Hall - so that distancing, if required, can be maintained.

  • Can Brexit Get Any Worse?
    Can Brexit Get Any Worse? By Dr. Steven McCabe, Associate Professor, Institute of Design and Economic Acceleration (IDEA) and Senior Fellow, Centre for Brexit Studies, Birmingham City University In the ongoing process that is Brexit, every week, there has been a sense that we’ve reached the point at which the situation surely cannot get any worse. And though the patterns over the last year of so has tended to be a continuation of what has gone before, with the odd ‘curve ball’ thrown in, the last week has been, at times, literally jaw-dropping. For the government to have withdrawn the Conservative ‘Whip’ from some of the longest-serving and most dedicated MPs including ‘Father of the House’ Kenneth Clarke and ‘grandee’ Sir Nicholas Soames still seems incredible. Those who rebelled against the government were cognisant of the punishment of support for the Benn bill that has mandates PM Boris Johnson to, if no agreement with the EU emerges after he attends the next Summit on 17th October, avoid ‘no deal’ by seeking an extension. Nonetheless it is something for a party that, even with the support of the DUP on a ‘confidence and supply’ arrangement, only had a wafer- thin majority until the defection of Philip Lee who defected to Lib Dems midway in as public a way as possible during Johnson’s speech, to lose 21 of its MPs. In normal times this would have brought the government down. To be fair, Boris Johnson attempted to call an election but, as he’s discovering, even in winning his first vote he was defeated by the abstentions among the opposition resulting in there not being a two thirds majority of MPs as required under the Fixed Term Parliament Act.

  • Will Boris Johnson Marry Carrie Symonds?
    Will Boris Johnson marry Carrie Symonds? As friends report that Boris Johnson is planning to marry his 30-year-old girlfriend, William Cash on why a third marriage can work when others failed After the announcement last September of Boris Johnson’s divorce from Marina Wheeler, his long-suffering wife of 25 years, the Daily Mail splashed a front-page photograph of him looking crumpled and dejected on the steps of his garden in Oxfordshire. Inside, the paper devoted a colourful spread to details about his latest affair with 30-year-old Carrie Symonds, the vivacious and fun-loving former head of Tory party communications. Seeing him wearing a pair of Indian leather slippers, his hands in his tousled hair, Falstaff-like, I couldn’t help but empathise with Boris — as a fellow double divorcé and writer on the rack. He looked broken and exhausted. I felt for him. The news, less than six months later, is that Boris is now living with Carrie and, according to The Sunday Times, he wants to marry her. “He’s lucky to have Carrie,” one of Symonds’s friends told the paper. “They wouldn’t have gone through all this if it weren’t serious. It’s not seedy — these are two people who fell in love and want to be together.” These words may surprise some of his former mistresses (who include Petronella Wyatt and the art dealer Helen Macintyre), as well as his wife and family. As Sonia Purnell wrote in her 2011 biography Just Boris, part of the raison d’être of the Johnson- Wheeler union was that, while far from perfect, it was “Boris and Marina against the rest of the world”, with the publicity being worse than any affair itself.
