  • Understanding Political Party Change: Why More Conservative Female and Ethnic Minority Candidates Were Successful in the 2010 British General Election
    Understanding Political Party Change: Why More Conservative Female and Ethnic Minority Candidates Were Successful in the 2010 British General Election Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Graduate Program in Global Studies Jytte Klausen, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Master’s Degree by Adrienne Roach May 2013 Acknowledgements For Matthew Wisnefske who never stops listening; Steve and Beth Roach for their encouragement; and Professor Jytte Klausen for her guidance and support I am also extremely grateful to the Members of Parliament and the former candidate I interviewed for this thesis. I know they all have very busy schedules, and are being asked to do interviews all the time. My time in London was very enlightening, helpful, and enjoyable because these individuals made time for me. I cannot thank them enough. ii Understanding Political Party Change: Why More Conservative Female and Ethnic Minority Candidates Were Successful in the 2010 British General Election A thesis presented to the Graduate Program in Global Studies Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Adrienne Roach This thesis examines the impacts of party competition and societal change and modernization on the outcome of the 2010 British General Election. Through the lens of descriptive representation, this thesis focuses on the 2010 general election as a case study. Interviews are conducted with Conservative female and ethnic minority MPs, and a former candidate to determine why the number of Conservative female and ethnic minority MPs increased in 2010. Three reasons for the increase are examined; competition with the Labour Party, internal pressure from party elites, and David Cameron’s leadership.

  • Lloyds Asset Theft Frauds
    LLOYDS ASSET THEFT FRAUDS THE OMNIBUS EDITION OF THE LLOYDS PRESS RELEASES December 2020 “Fraud unravels everything” This historic court ruling (Lord Denning, 1956) holds the key to “The most serious financial scandal of modern times.” Through years of research, victims of banking fraud know every detail of the wrongdoing and fraud which has been undertaken by Lloyds Banking Group and is described in this report. However, knowing that fraud unravels everything, because once proven it negates judgments, contracts and all transactions, successive Governments including the present one, have been determined that the truth should not come out. The argument being that this would be too damaging for the economy as a whole. Every arm of Government and the Establishment has therefore been engaged in the cover up, which has extended from ministers and senior civil servants, through regulators and prosecutors down to the police. The Home Secretary received our “Lloyds Asset Theft Frauds” report (available on our website) in June and replied dismissively in October. In July last year, the National Crime Agency (NCA) was supplied with overwhelming evidence of Lloyds’ signature forgeries and has played for time. Meanwhile, at least eight regional police authorities have refused, or are currently refusing, to investigate cases involving Lloyds’ frauds. Government and those bodies responsible for enforcing the law have long been positioned on the wrong side of the law, an unthinkable position which they consider can somehow be maintained. Gatekeepers have been placed in key positions of authority to ensure that the lid is kept firmly sealed on all wrongdoing. A leading figure, who has been responsible for supervising the cover up of widespread banking fraud, is the current Governor of the Bank of England.

  • Urgent Open Letter to Jesse Norman Mp on the Loan Charge
    URGENT OPEN LETTER TO JESSE NORMAN MP ON THE LOAN CHARGE Dear Minister, We are writing an urgent letter to you in your new position as the Financial Secretary to the Treasury. On the 11th April at the conclusion of the Loan Charge Debate the House voted in favour of the motion. The Will of the House is clearly for an immediate suspension of the Loan Charge and an independent review of this legislation. Many Conservative MPs have criticised the Loan Charge as well as MPs from other parties. As you will be aware, there have been suicides of people affected by the Loan Charge. With the huge anxiety thousands of people are facing, we believe that a pause and a review is vital and the right and responsible thing to do. You must take notice of the huge weight of concern amongst MPs, including many in your own party. It was clear in the debate on the 4th and the 11th April, that the Loan Charge in its current form is not supported by a majority of MPs. We urge you, as the Rt Hon Cheryl Gillan MP said, to listen to and act upon the Will of the House. It is clear from their debate on 29th April that the House of Lords takes the same view. We urge you to announce a 6-month delay today to give peace of mind to thousands of people and their families and to allow for a proper review. Ross Thomson MP John Woodcock MP Rt Hon Sir Edward Davey MP Jonathan Edwards MP Ruth Cadbury MP Tulip Siddiq MP Baroness Kramer Nigel Evans MP Richard Harrington MP Rt Hon Sir Vince Cable MP Philip Davies MP Lady Sylvia Hermon MP Catherine West MP Rt Hon Dame Caroline
