A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 11 June 2017 Following the 8 June General Election result, Prime Minister Theresa May has formed her new government. Before the election and in anticipation of a Conservative landslide victory, there was much speculation that May planned a large ministerial reshuffle. However, such a reshuffle could have posed too much of a political risk after the Conservatives lost their majority in the House of Commons. As a result, most senior ministers have been re-appointed, while junior ministers have been subject to some reshuffling and a few ministers that lost their constituency seat have been replaced. The Conservative government has a confidence and supply deal with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), meaning the DUP will support the government in key votes, such as on the Queen's Speech and Budgets, as well as Brexit and security matters, which are likely to dominate most of the current Parliament. This gives the government a working majority of 13. This is a briefing for BIA members on the new Government and key ministerial appointments for our sector. It will be updated as information emerges.

Nicola Blackwood, previously Health Minister responsible for life sciences innovation, R&D, genomics and data alongside public health and health protection, did not get re-elected in the General Election. Her remit for these areas has been transferred to Lord O’Shaughnessy. Lord O’Shaughnessy, Lord in Waiting (Government Whip) and Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Health Lord O’Shaughnessy was made a life peer in 2015. Between 2010 and 2011 he worked in No.10 as Director of Policy to Prime Minister David Cameron, where he was responsible for co-authoring the Coalition's Programme for Government and overseeing the implementation of the Government's domestic policy programme. He was Director of the Conservative Research Department from 2007 to 2010 and authored the Conservative Party's general election manifesto. In 2013, he founded Floreat Education, a multi-academy trust of 3 primary schools in Wandsworth, Wokingham and Brentford that provides an ‘academics and character’ educational philosophy. He held a number of other education and advisory positions. The BIA has met with Lord O’Shaughnessy both privately and as part of the Ministerial Industry Strategy Group (MISG). He has also been involved in the EU-UK Transition Programme work. BIA member briefing Page 5 Lord Prior – Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State An investment banker and Barrister by training, Lord Prior served as MP for North Norfolk from 1997 to 2001 and went on to be deputy chairman and CEO of the Conservative Party. He was also on the Commons Select Committee for Trade and Industry. Lord Prior was appointed Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy in December 2016. Previously he served at the Department of Health as Minister for NHS Productivity from May 2015. He also joined the House of Lords in May 2015. Prior to that he was chairman of the Care Quality Commission from 2013 to 2015. Lord Prior delivered a keynote speech at the BIA Gala Dinner in January 2017. Similar to Lord O’Shaughnessy, the BIA has engaged with Lord Prior privately, through the MISG and other work related to Brexit. BIA member briefing Page 6 Theresa May’s team in Number 10 Gavin Barwell – Chief of Staff Barwell is replacing Fiona Hill and Nick Timothy as the PM’s Chief of Staff. Barwell served as Minister of State for Housing, Planning and Minister for London at the Department for Communities and Local Government from July 2016 until the General Election, where he did not get re-elected. He served as an MP for Croydon Central between 2010-15 and 2015-17. Before becoming an MP, Barwell worked for the Conservative Party, serving as its Chief Operating Officer between 2003-06.

It is named after the former Prime Minister Harold Wilson who established the rule in 1966. According to the Times on 18 November 1966, some MPs were concerned that the security services were tapping their telephones. In November 1966, in response to a number of parliamentary questions, Harold Wilson made a statement in the House of Commons saying that MPs phones would not be tapped. More recently, successive Interception of Communications Commissioners have recommended that the forty year convention which has banned the interception of MPs’ communications should be lifted, on the grounds that legislation governing interception has been introduced since 1966.

Migrant Voters in the 2015 General Election 1. Introduction The 2015 general election looks to be the closest and least predictable in living memory, and immigration is a key issue at the heart of the contest. With concerns about the economy slowly receding as the financial crisis fades into memory, immigration has returned to the top of the political agenda, named by more voters as their most pressing political concern than any other issue1. Widespread anxiety about immigration has also been a key driver behind the surge in support for UKIP, though it is far from the only issue this new party is mobilizing around2. Much attention has been paid to the voters most anxious about immigration, and what can be done to assuage their concerns. Yet amidst this fierce debate about whether, and how, to restrict immigration, an important electoral voice has been largely overlooked: that of migrants themselves. In this briefing, we argue that the migrant The political benefits of engaging with electorate is a crucial constituency in the 2015 migrant voters could be felt far into the election, and will only grow in importance in future.

  • Understanding Governments Attitudes to Social Housing

    Understanding Governments Attitudes to Social Housing

    Understanding Government’s Attitudes to Social Housing through the Application of Politeness Theory Abstract This paper gives a brief background of housing policy in England from the 2010 general election where David Cameron was appointed Prime Minister of a Coalition government with the Liberal Democrats and throughout the years that followed. The study looks at government attitudes towards social housing from 2015, where David Cameron had just become Prime Minister of an entirely Conservative Government, to 2018 following important events such as Brexit and the tragic Grenfell Tower fire. Through the application of politeness theory, as originally put forward by Brown & Levinson (1978, 1987), the study analysis the speeches of key ministers to the National Housing Summit and suggests that the use of positive and negative politeness strategies could give an idea as to the true attitudes of government. Word Count: 5472 Emily Pumford [email protected] Job Title: Researcher 1 Organisation: The Riverside Group Current research experience: 3 years Understanding Government’s Attitudes to Social Housing through the Application of Politeness Theory Introduction and Background For years, the Conservative Party have prided themselves on their support for home ownership. From Margaret Thatcher proudly proclaiming that they had taken the ‘biggest single step towards a home-owning democracy ever’ (Conservative Manifest 1983), David Cameron arguing that they would become ‘once again, the party of home ownership in our country’ (Conservative Party Conference Speech 2014) and Theresa May, as recently as 2017, declaring that they would ‘make the British Dream a reality by reigniting home ownership in Britain’ (Conservative Party Conference Speech 2017).

    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 26 June 2020 This is a briefing for BIA members on the Government led by Boris Johnson and key ministerial appointments for our sector after the December 2019 General Election and February 2020 Cabinet reshuffle. Following the Conservative Party’s compelling victory, the Government now holds a majority of 80 seats in the House of Commons. The life sciences sector is high on the Government’s agenda and Boris Johnson has pledged to make the UK “the leading global hub for life sciences after Brexit”. With its strong majority, the Government has the power to enact the policies supportive of the sector in the Conservatives 2019 Manifesto. All in all, this indicates a positive outlook for life sciences during this Government’s tenure.

  • Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications

    Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications

    Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications Jessica R. Adolino, Ph. D. Professor of Political Science James Madison University Draft prepared for presentation at the European Studies Association Annual Meeting May 9-12, 2019, Denver, Colorado Please do not cite or distribute without author’s permission. By almost any measure, since the immediate aftermath of the June 16, 2016 Brexit referendum, the British government has been in a state of chaos. The turmoil began with then- Prime Minister David Cameron’s resignation on June 17 and succession by Theresa May within days of the vote. Subsequently, May’s decision to call a snap election in 2017 and the resulting loss of the Conservatives’ parliamentary majority cast doubt on her leadership and further stirred up dissension in her party’s ranks. Perhaps more telling, and the subject of this paper, is the unprecedented number of ministers1—from both senior and junior ranks—that quit the May government over Brexit-related policy disagreements2. Between June 12, 2017 and April 3, 2019, the government witnessed 45 resignations, with high-profile secretaries of state and departmental ministers stepping down to return to the backbenches. Of these, 34 members of her government, including 9 serving in the Cabinet, departed over issues with some aspect of Brexit, ranging from dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister’s Withdrawal Agreement, to disagreements about the proper role of Parliament, to questions about the legitimacy of the entire Brexit process. All told, Theresa May lost more ministers, and at a more rapid pace, than any other prime minister in modern times.
