The arrangements for swearing in are set out in the Chamber information sheet, and a guidance note is also Mr Speaker: I have to report that this House has been available from the Table and Vote Offices. in the House of Lords where Her Majesty, by Her Royal I propose to call first the Father of the House, then Commissioners, has been pleased to approve the choice members of the Cabinet, then members of the shadow made of myself for the Office of Speaker. I have, in your Cabinet, then all Privy Counsellors not included in name and on your behalf, made claim by humble petition those two groups, wherever they may be sitting, and to Her Majesty to all your ancient and undoubted rights then other Ministers. Thereafter, I shall call other hon. and privileges, particularly to freedom of speech in Members according to the Parliament of their first debate, freedom from arrest, and freedom of access to entry, or, for those with broken service, that of most Her Majesty whenever occasion shall require, and that recent entry.

I propose to remain in the Chair until 5 pm today, and then to return at 5.30 pm and continue until 7.30 pm My first duty to the House is to report my respectful or later, as necessary. The House will sit again tomorrow acknowledgement and grateful thanks for the great at 9.30 am. I propose to be in the Chair for swearing in honour you have conferred upon me in placing me in tomorrow from 9.30 am until 11.30 am, to return at the Chair. 12 noon until 1.30 pm, and then again, if required, from 2.30 pm until 4.30 pm. I hope that by the end of tomorrow afternoon we will have made sufficient progress to enable all Members to swear in who wish to do so. However, if required, we will sit for swearing in at 2 pm on the day of the Queen’s Speech. [Interruption.] I am not in a position to divulge any further information on that matter. I hope that Members will come forward in an orderly manner. I remind Members that the swearing in, as a proceeding of the House, is recorded by the television cameras, and that anything said or done by Members may appear on television or be picked up by microphones. It will assist the broadcasters if new Members state their name and constituency when they come to the Dispatch Box. Progress will depend, of course, on the number of Members wishing to swear in at any particular time. I advise Members to watch the Annunciators to establish progress, and to speak to their Whips. In a moment, we will begin this process, as I indicated a few moments ago, with the Father of the House, but before we do so I want to make a very short statement. All of us will be aware of, and horrified by, the tragic fire that engulfed the vast majority of an enormous block of flats in London in the early hours of this morning. Colleagues, it is not possible to treat of that matter in the way that we otherwise, I am sure, would wish to do in the Chamber today. The Government are very sensitive to the concern that exists on this subject and my very clear understanding is that arrangements are in hand for a meeting with the relevant Minister to take place within the precincts of the Palace of Westminster. 15 Members Sworn 14 JUNE 2017 Members Sworn 16 That meeting can be attended by colleagues gravely Right honourable Jeremy Paul Wright, Kenilworth and concerned about this matter, and no doubt questions Southam can be put to the Minister and answers, such as he or Right honourable Jeremy Bernard Corbyn, Islington she is able to give, can be provided. It will not be a North proceeding of Parliament, and that would not be possible Right honourable Nicholas Hugh Brown, Newcastle under our Standing Orders. Nor is it possible, after I upon Tyne East have spoken, for anybody else to say anything. I just want, I am sure on behalf of each and every one of you Right honourable Emily Thornberry, Islington South in this Chamber, to offer our condolences to the families and Finsbury and friends of the victims of this unimaginable and Right honourable John Martin McDonnell, Hayes and horrific disaster. I want also, I am sure with your Harlington concurrence, to offer the warmest and most effusive Right honourable Diane Julie Abbott, Hackney North thanks to our magnificent emergency services for coping and Stoke Newington as best they can in this horrendous situation. I hope Valerie Carol Marian Vaz, Walsall South colleagues will understand that we have to leave it there for now. Thank you. Right honourable John Healey, Wentworth and Dearne Let us now begin, and we do so, appropriately, with Andrew John Gwynne, Denton and Reddish the Father of the House, the right hon. and learned Ian Lavery, Wansbeck Member for Rushcliffe.

  • 'Death of a Female Unknown' to the Life of Margaret
    FROM THE ‘DEATH OF A FEMALE UNKNOWN’ TO THE LIFE OF MARGARET DOCKERTY: REDISCOVERING A NINETEENTH CENTURY VICTIM OF CRIME Clare Sandford-Couch Helen Rutherford1 Abstract On 1 January 1863, a woman was brutally raped and beaten to death in Newcastle upon Tyne. Her murderer was to be tried, convicted, and finally executed for murder. However, he is not the subject of this piece. Historically, the study of the criminal law has focused too heavily on the perpetrators of crimes. This article attempts to establish the victim, Margaret Dockerty, as an individual and to offer some social, cultural, economic and historical context for, and background to, her life. Keywords: victim, murder, Irish, Newcastle upon Tyne, police surgeon, intemperance, clothing; legal history; social history; microhistory Introduction In the early hours of the New Year 1863, ‘whilst the streets were alive with pedestrians among whom the congratulations of the season were heartily exchanged’,2 a woman was brutally raped and beaten to death in the shadow of the West Walls, Newcastle upon Tyne. It was not a clever or devious crime. There were a number of witnesses and the perpetrator was arrested the next day. He was tried, convicted and executed for murder within a few weeks. However, the murderer is not the subject of this study. Rather, we want to focus on his victim: a woman named Margaret Dockerty.3 The modern perception that criminal law focusses too heavily on the perpetrators of crimes has begun to be readdressed by the development of a subgenre of criminology, victimology.4 The victim has often been described as the ‘forgotten man’ of a criminal-centred system and 1 Dr Clare Sandford-Couch [email protected] and Helen Rutherford [email protected] are solicitors and senior lecturers at Northumbria University.

  • Docherty – I’D Love to Headline a Nxtgen
    DOCHERTY – I’D LOVE TO HEADLINE A NXTGEN SHOW IN SCOTLAND Rising Super-Middleweight talent John Docherty says he would love to headline a JD NXTGEN show in his native Scotland as he gears up for a ‘breakout’ 2020, starting with a six round contest against the Czech Republic’s Stanislav Eschner on the undercard of Kell Brook vs. Mark DeLuca at the FlyDSA Arena in Sheffield next Saturday. The former Team GB member, now training under Tony Sims alongside Scottish fight legend Ricky Burns in Essex, made an explosive start to life in the professional ranks, demolishing his first five opponents inside the distance to earn a reputation as one of the hardest-hitting 168llbs prospects in the UK. That KO streak came to an end when ‘The Doc’ went the distance for the first time in his career against experienced journeyman Darryl Sharp at the Exhibition Centre in Liverpool followed by another points win against Lewis van Poetsch at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle. Despite banking some much-needed rounds in his learning fights against Sharp and Poetsch, the Montrose man is eager to get back on the KO train as he continues to work towards his first professional title opportunity in 2020. “I had a rest over Christmas but not much as I knew I had this fight just after new year and this is a fight that I am really looking forward to putting on a show,” said Docherty. “I had an active 2019 but I’m used to fighting a lot because of my amateur background.

This hypothesis Is differently explored in part one and part two of the thesis. Part one is essentially a sociological account of the relationship between the English Catholic Church, the State and the migrant comminity in the 19th century. This eccount is preceded by an analysis of Irish migrants and the political, economic and cultural contexts of their settlement In Britain. Part one attempts to show the role which the structure and content of Catholic elementary education played in the process of denatlonalising the children of this migrant corrnunity. This was achieved by institutionalising a silence on the p01 itic& origins of the migrants and by forging a bond between the Church and Its Irish congregation based on Cetholicity and corm.inity.
