  • THE ANDREW MARR SHOW INTERVIEW: OWEN PATERSON CONSERVATIVE JUNE 14Th 2015
    PLEASE NOTE “THE ANDREW MARR SHOW” MUST BE CREDITED IF ANY PART OF THIS TRANSCRIPT IS USED THE ANDREW MARR SHOW INTERVIEW: OWEN PATERSON CONSERVATIVE JUNE 14th 2015 ANDREW MARR: Now then, the prime minister continues his European tour this week trying to win other EU leaders over to his plan to renegotiate Britain’s relationship. It hasn’t gone terribly well so far. Elements of the deal he’s seeking are beginning to emerge, however. How will it be received, however, by the voters and by his own party? I should say that we asked the government for an interview with a minister on this or any other subject, but we were told none was available. But we do have the leading light in the Conservatives for Britain group I was talking about earlier on, the former cabinet minister Owen Paterson. Welcome Mr Paterson. OWEN PATERSON: Good morning. ANDREW MARR: Now this is going to be an important week for Britain and for Europe of course in the House of Commons because you have the chance to debate and possibly amend the government’s legislation. There’s been a lot of talk about something called ‘purdah’, which I think a lot of people won’t understand. Can you explain why purdah matters in this debate – what purdah is and why it matters? 1 OWEN PATERSON: Yeah, Andrew, purdah is crucial. Purdah means the government cannot use agencies of the state to spend money or to send information to citizens in a period leading up to an election. And this has been well established.

  • Stapylton Final Version
    1 THE PARLIAMENTARY PRIVILEGE OF FREEDOM FROM ARREST, 1603–1629 Keith A. T. Stapylton UCL Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 Page 2 DECLARATION I, Keith Anthony Thomas Stapylton, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed Page 3 ABSTRACT This thesis considers the English parliamentary privilege of freedom from arrest (and other legal processes), 1603-1629. Although it is under-represented in the historiography, the early Stuart Commons cherished this particular privilege as much as they valued freedom of speech. Previously one of the privileges requested from the monarch at the start of a parliament, by the seventeenth century freedom from arrest was increasingly claimed as an ‘ancient’, ‘undoubted’ right that secured the attendance of members, and safeguarded their honour, dignity, property, and ‘necessary’ servants. Uncertainty over the status and operation of the privilege was a major contemporary issue, and this prompted key questions for research. First, did ill definition of the constitutional relationship between the crown and its prerogatives, and parliament and its privileges, lead to tensions, increasingly polemical attitudes, and a questioning of the royal prerogative? Where did sovereignty now lie? Second, was it important to maximise the scope of the privilege, if parliament was to carry out its business properly? Did ad hoc management of individual privilege cases nevertheless have the cumulative effect of enhancing the authority and confidence of the Commons? Third, to what extent was the exploitation or abuse of privilege an unintended consequence of the strengthening of the Commons’ authority in matters of privilege? Such matters are not treated discretely, but are embedded within chapters that follow a thematic, broadly chronological approach.
