  • Father of the House Sarah Priddy
    BRIEFING PAPER Number 06399, 17 December 2019 By Richard Kelly Father of the House Sarah Priddy Inside: 1. Seniority of Members 2. History www.parliament.uk/commons-library | intranet.parliament.uk/commons-library | [email protected] | @commonslibrary Number 06399, 17 December 2019 2 Contents Summary 3 1. Seniority of Members 4 1.1 Determining seniority 4 Examples 4 1.2 Duties of the Father of the House 5 1.3 Baby of the House 5 2. History 6 2.1 Origin of the term 6 2.2 Early usage 6 2.3 Fathers of the House 7 2.4 Previous qualifications 7 2.5 Possible elections for Father of the House 8 Appendix: Fathers of the House, since 1901 9 3 Father of the House Summary The Father of the House is a title that is by tradition bestowed on the senior Member of the House, which is nowadays held to be the Member who has the longest unbroken service in the Commons. The Father of the House in the current (2019) Parliament is Sir Peter Bottomley, who was first elected to the House in a by-election in 1975. Under Standing Order No 1, as long as the Father of the House is not a Minister, he takes the Chair when the House elects a Speaker. He has no other formal duties. There is evidence of the title having been used in the 18th century. However, the origin of the term is not clear and it is likely that different qualifications were used in the past. The Father of the House is not necessarily the oldest Member.

  • Harriet Harman QC MP
    Harriet Harman QC MP Member of Parliament for Camberwell & Peckham House of Commons London SW1A 0AA 0207 219 4218 [email protected] www.harrietharman.org @HarrietHarman @UKLabour 1 For further information about my work in the constituency please see my website www.harrietharman.org Introduction For the Labour Party in Camberwell and Peckham, the next 12 months will be very different from the last. 2016 has been busy with elections. We had the Mayoral election, then the EU Referendum and then the Labour Leadership election. Next year we will be having no elections and that will give us the opportunity to campaign in every ward to build the support we need to get our councillors re-elected in 2018. It is always important to have a Labour Councillor on your side, but never more so than when there is a Tory government. And with the leadership election behind us it will be the chance for all members, including the over 2,000 who have joined us since 2015, to be out campaigning together. People locally will judge us not just by the discussions we have in our ward and in our GC but by our commitment to be out there campaigning on their doorstep, showing our solidarity with them as they face difficult times. And there is every possibility that, with the Government mired in difficulties over Brexit and with our low standing in the opinion polls, The Prime Minister might seek the opportunity of an early General Election. In the meantime the reality of a Tory government continues to press down on people.
