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.

  • Generational Divide Will Split Cult of Corbyn the Internal Contradictions Between the Youthful Idealists and Cynical Old Trots Are Becoming Increasingly Exposed
    The Times, 26th September 2017: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/comment/generational-divide- will-split-cult-of-corbyn-c0sbn70mv Generational divide will split cult of Corbyn The internal contradictions between the youthful idealists and cynical old Trots are becoming increasingly exposed Rachael Sylvester A graffiti artist is spray-painting a wall when I arrive at The World Transformed festival, organised by Jeremy Corbyn’s supporters in Momentum. Inside, clay-modelling is under way in a creative workshop that is exploring “the symbiotic relationship between making and thinking”. A “collaborative quilt” hangs in the “creative chaos corner” next to a specially commissioned artwork celebrating the NHS. The young, mainly female volunteers who are staffing the event talk enthusiastically about doing politics in a different way and creating spaces where people can come together to discuss new ideas. It is impossible to ignore the slightly cult-like atmosphere: one member of the audience is wearing a T-shirt printed with the slogan “Corbyn til I die”. But this four-day festival running alongside the official Labour Party conference in Brighton has far more energy and optimism than most political events. There have been two late-night raves, sessions on “acid Corbynism”, and a hackathon, seeking to harness the power of the geeks to solve technological problems. With its own app, pinging real-time updates to followers throughout the day, and a glossy pastel-coloured brochure, the Momentum festival has an upbeat, modern feel. As well as sunny optimism there is a darker, bullying side Then I go to a packed session on “Radical Democracy and Twenty- First Century Socialism”.

  • Dennis Skinner
    DENNIS SKINNER UK HOUSE OF COMMONS THE BEAST OF BOLSOVER He’s a conviction politician, he’s an unrepentant, old school socialist, he represents the place where he grew up in Derbyshire and he once did a real job for a living (he was a coalminer) – any one of those qualifications makes Dennis Skinner a rare specimen in British politics these days. He once said that he would retire at the age of 65, that to do otherwise would be to ‘take another man’s job’, So far, he’s gone 18 years beyond that, but nobody could ever accuse him of riding the gravy train: Skinner has arguably had the best attendance record in the House and yet frequently listed as claiming the least in expenses. He’s always spurned paid trips abroad, anything smacking of patronage and even the House of Commons bars – he prefers to meet visitors in the canteen. He’s also democracy’s most prolific and vituperative heckler and his sneering harangues have become legendary. Sometimes they’re funny; often they’re just bile and battery acid. He called one former cabinet minister ‘slimy’ and ‘a wart’ and another a ‘pompous sod’. He accused Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher of being the sort who would bribe judges ‘to save her own neck’. Skinner’s staunchly against the monarchy, and the annual opening of Parliament has always triggered a response – usually directed at ‘Black Rod’ the liveried official sent to summon MPs to the House of Lords for the Queen’s speech. When a new Black Rod, the diminutive retired general, Michael Willcocks, made his first appearance, Skinner cried: ‘They’ve short-changed us! He’s nowt but a midget!’ For decades he was something of a hate figure for everyone who didn’t share his politics.

  • Annual Labour Party Conference 2017 Aylesbury Constituency Delegate Report
    Emily Smith ANNUAL LABOUR PARTY CONFERENCE 2017 AYLESBURY CONSTITUENCY DELEGATE REPORT Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………….1 Women’s Conference…………………………………………………………….……..2 Sunday 24th……………………………………………………………………………………9 Monday 25th………………………………………………………………….………..……13 Tuesday 26th…………………………………………………………………………………16 Wednesday 27th……………………………………………………………………….…..26 Introduction The Annual Labour Party Conference of 2017 is sure to be one that goes down in history. In terms of attendees, this years’ conference was the largest yet with a record breaking 12,000+ supporters making their way down to Brighton to witness the excitement and democratic change happening in the party over a snapshot of a few days. The sheer size of the event along with the atmosphere and engagement of all visitors is a further assertion of the inspiring movement that is happening within our Party and a great reflection of our mounting membership which now stands at close to 600,000 – making our party the largest political party in Europe. Our booming membership and colossal conference stand as an unmissable reminder of the undying importance of the parties’ core – the grassroots from which we are built upon. This years’ conference also boasts an incredible engagement of delegates in our Policy Forum, Party Rules and Conference Arrangements that transcends those that preceded. 185 Contemporary Motions were submitted, 13 Constitutional Amendments proposed, 9 Composite Motions suggested, 24 Emergency Motions applied for, over 10 points of order raised, more than 20 calls for Reference Back and Tuesdays’ CAC report was almost declined. There was a visible and remarkable notion of delegates holding the NPF, CAC and NEC to account and a remarkable level of scrutiny, still accompanied by comradery and respect.

  • The Office of Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire
    Section A DECISION NOTICE For Publication AUGUST 2016 THE OFFICE OF POLICE AND CRIME COMMISSIONER FOR DERBYSHIRE DECISION RECORD Received in OPCC Request for PCC Decision OPCC Ref: 33/ 16 Date: 27 June 2016 Title: COMPENSATION: BOLSOVER DISTRICT COUNCIL Executive Summary: Five years ago, the Police Authority approved Derbyshire Police to co-locate the Bolsover Section to Bolsover District Council Offices. The Council took on an obligation to provide similar facilities were they to relocate, which they did, to Clowne. Bolsover District Council has already paid Derbyshire Police a sum to relocate from their council offices to temporary accommodation and to then move into a more permanent solution at Oxcroft House. This coincided with the force’s strategic policing review so the Chief Constable and Commissioner decided that it would be inappropriate to commit to a further long lease of Oxcroft House as it may not meet the new needs of the force going forward. Considerable costs had already been incurred by Bolsover District Council in developing this scheme. Bolsover District Council have demonstrated that they have incurred costs to date (supported by documentary evidence); the Constabulary are still holding removal monies for which there is no justification. Decision Resolved that the Commissioner agrees to pay compensation to Bolsover District Council as set out within their claim and as detailed in the confidential report. Declaration 1 \\Srvsdrive01\fhq\HQ\OPCC\Governance & Strategic Planning\Strategic Governance Board\2016\Decision Log 2016\DN33 Compensation Bolsover District Council\DN Bolsover DC Decision Notice.docx DECISION NOTICE AUGUST 2016 I confirm that I have considered whether or not I have any personal or prejudicial interest in this matter and take the proposed decision in compliance with the Code of Conduct for the Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire.

  • General Election 2019 13 December 2019
    General Election 2019 13 December 2019 The results Boris Johnson’s gamble has paid off. He will return to Parliament with a majority of roughly eighty MPs having taken swathes of seats from the Labour Party. The UK will formally leave the European Union within the next two months and a further general election looks highly unlikely before 2024. Projected final result: Conservatives Labour Liberal SNP Others Democrats 365 203 11 48 23 The electoral map has been redrawn. Traditional Labour seats like Workington, Darlington, Blythe and Leigh have turned blue. Even places like Redcar (which recently saw its steel works shut down) and Sedgefield (once held by Tony Blair) were taken by the Conservatives. The Midlands followed the same trend with long-standing Labour MPs such as Dennis Skinner losing Bolsover after forty-four years. London remains an outlier, with Labour and the Liberal Democrats making some gains. However, there were seats where a split in the remain vote allowed the Conservatives to win, such as the marginal constituencies of Kensington and the City of London and Westminster. Jeremy Corbyn’s overnight statement was short on remorse. He blamed the media and Brexit for his party’s result whilst arguing that his policies remain popular. Corbyn also announced that he will not stand in a further election but pledged to stay on whilst the party reflected on the reasons for their losses. The general expectation is that his MPs will move to remove him from power sooner rather than later, but despite suffering what could yet be the worst Labour result since 1935, the left of the party retain control of the party’s structures.
