  • Parliamentary Voting and Constituencies Bill October 2010
    Parliamentary Voting and Constituencies Bill October 2010 This paper provides a background briefing on the Parliamentary Voting and Constituencies Bill, which was presented to the UK Parliament by the Rt. Hon Nick Clegg MP, the Deputy Prime Minister, on 22 July 2010. The Bill includes two key provisions which both directly apply to Wales. It aims to provide for a referendum on a choice between First Past the Post (FPTP) and the Alternative Vote (AV) as the system for electing the House of Commons, and change the electoral system for the Commons to the Alternative Vote if the result of the referendum supports this. The Bill also aims to provide for a reduction in the number of seats in the House of Commons from 650 to 600 and to introduce more equally sized constituencies. The National Assembly for Wales is the democratically elected body that represents the interests of Wales and its people, makes laws for Wales and holds the Welsh Government to account. The Members’ Research Service is part of the National Assembly for Wales. We provide confidential and impartial research support to the Assembly’s scrutiny and legislation committees, and to all 60 individual Assembly Members and their staff.

Thank you for subscribingWe have more newslettersShow meSee ourprivacy notice Invalid Email In July of last year when Theresa May became only the second female Prime Minister in British history, much of the media coverage focused on her gender and on her reported fetish for footwear. For the Sun , she was the shoe fanatic whose childhood dream was to be a politician. Goody Two Shoes said the Mirror . Theresa’s fancy footwork gets her the job, said the Daily Star . Such attention was entirely predictable. Mrs May, like any other female politician, is predominantly defined by her sexuality. In 2015, her appearance in Parliament on Budget day threatened to overshadow the Chancellor’s statement. The "1950s called and asked for their headline back" In the Daily Mail , sketch writer Quentin Letts recorded that (note familiar use of first name): “Theresa sat in a suit so low cut she could have been taken for Sam Fox”. An accompanying picture illustrated his point. Then, in March this year the same newspaper published a front page photo colour photograph of the Prime Minister and Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon sitting beside each other.
