  • NEW SHADOW CABINET 2020 Who’S In, Who’S Out?
    NEW SHADOW CABINET 2020 Who’s In, Who’s Out? BRIEFING PAPER blackcountrychamber.co.uk Who’s in and Who’s out? Sir Keir Starmer, newly elected Leader of the UK Labour Party, set about building his first Shadow Cabinet, following his election win in the Labour Party leadership contest. In our parliamentary system, a cabinet reshuffle or shuffle is an informal term for an event that occurs when the head of a government or party rotates or changes the composition of ministers in their cabinet. The Shadow Cabinet is a function of the Westminster system consisting of a senior group of opposition spokespeople. It is the Shadow Cabinet’s responsibility to scrutinise the policies and actions of the government, as well as to offer alternative policies.

Representatives, Meetings, Your Ward Debbonaire and Officers and other Organiser, and Marvin Rees role holders Branch Chairs Bristol West Constituency Labour Party Welcome from Margaret Hickman, Chair of Bristol West CLP Bristol West is the Constituency Labour Party (CLP), meaning that it covers the area represented by an MP. Currently the MP for the constituency is Labour’s Thangam Debbonaire, who was elected in 2015. From 1997 until 2005, Valerie Davey represented us in Parliament. Bristol West covers the heart of Bristol, including the city centre and the major historical sites and areas, from the waterfront and ‘old city’ to St Pauls, Montpelier, Park Street and the University, right up to the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the Avon Gorge. We value Bristol’s diversity and history, but we also recognise that Bristol West is a relatively wealthy and privileged area, albeit one with significant pockets of poverty, particularly the ward of Lawrence Hill which is the most deprived in the South West. Our members are drawn from across a whole range of occupations, from university lecturers and students to midwives and postal workers, retired people and teachers. We welcome everyone who is committed to Labour values and to making Bristol a fairer, more equal city. Thangam Debbonaire, Member of Parliament for Bristol West Bristol is a great place to live and it could be even better.

  • House of Commons Hansard
    House of Commons Hansard The Government's Plan for Brexit 07 December 2016 Volume 618 Mr Speaker I inform the House that I have selected amendment (a) in the name of the Prime Minister. 12:51:00 Keir Starmer (Holborn and St Pancras) (Lab) I beg to move, That this House recognises that leaving the EU is the defining issue facing the UK; notes the resolution on parliamentary scrutiny of the UK leaving the EU agreed by the House on 12 October 2016; recognises that it is Parliament’s responsibility to properly scrutinise the Government while respecting the decision of the British people to leave the European Union; confirms that there should be no disclosure of material that could be reasonably judged to damage the UK in any negotiations to depart from the European Union after Article 50 has been triggered; and calls on the Prime Minister to commit to publishing the Government’s plan for leaving the EU before Article 50 is invoked. For months, Labour has been pressing the Prime Minister and the Government to set out their plan for Brexit. For months, the Prime Minister and a succession of Ministers have refused to do so, either in writing or from this Dispatch Box. Facing defeat on today’s motion, the Government have now caved in—last-minute amendments tell their own story and everybody knows it. This is a victory for common sense. I thank those from various Opposition parties who backed putting pressure on the Government to disclose their plan, and I thank the Conservative Members who, rightly, want to see far more detail about the approach their Front Benchers are intending to take.
