  • A Year in Review, the Year Ahead
    2018: A YEAR IN REVIEW, 2019: THE YEAR AHEAD Foreword from Rt Hon Patricia Hewitt, Senior Adviser, FTI Consulting 2018 was the most unpredictable and tumultuous year in politics … since 2017. Which was the most unpredictable and tumultuous year in politics … since 2016. And there’s no sign of let-up as we move into 2019. The unresolved questions of Brexit - how? when? whether at all? - will inevitably dominate the coming year. Even if Theresa May brings back from Brussels a new political declaration sufficiently compelling to command a majority in Parliament - a highly unlikely prospect at the time of writing - the end of March will mean the start of a fresh, complex round of negotiations on a future trade deal, conducted under the shadow of the Irish backstop. For most people, that would be preferable to the collapse of Mrs May’s deal and, almost inevitably, the collapse of her government and a subsequent constitutional crisis. Faced with the choice between revoking Article 50 or leaving the European Union (EU) without a deal, the Commons could well produce a majority for a new referendum. Under the pressure of a leadership contest, the personal and political rancour in the Conservative Party could finally break apart Europe’s hitherto most successful party of government. A no-confidence vote that would be defeated today could command enough votes from the Brexiteers’ kamikaze tendency to force another General Election. And Labour - with most of its moderates MPs replaced by Corbynistas in last-minute candidate selections - could win on a ‘cake and eat it’ manifesto of a Brexit that would end free movement but provide frictionless trade (Irish backstop, anyone?).

  • THE CASE AGAINST WINDFARMS Country Guardian Has Been Researching the Impact of Windfarms on the Environment Since Its Formation in 1992
    1 THE CASE AGAINST WINDFARMS Country Guardian has been researching the impact of windfarms on the environment since its formation in 1992. Its research document "The Case Against Windfarms" is detailed and runs to about 20 A4 pages. Most recently updated in May 2000 it is printed below, preceded by a statement of Country Guardian's Policy on Windfarms. You can use the Index on the left to go straight to a specific section, or read it straight through, or download it A. THE CASE FOR WIND "FARMS" EXAMINED B. THE SCALE OF DEVELOPMENT REQUIRED C. THE PROBLEM OF INTERMITTENCY D. LANDSCAPE QUALITY OF WIND "FARM" SITES E. BEAUTIES OR BEASTS? F. WIND TURBINES OFFSHORE? G. THE NOISE FACTOR H. TELEVISION INTERFERENCE I. WIDER ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES J. SAFETY K. TOURISM, JOBS, HOUSE PRICES L. THE EFFECT ON BIRDS M. PUBLIC OPINION N. WHY THE NEW PHENOMENON OF WINDFARMS? O. GOVERNMENT POLICY P. EUROPEAN UNION POLICY Q. KYOTO R. WIND 'FARMS' AND THE PLANNING SYSTEM S. THE FUTILITY OF SUPPLY-SIDE SOLUTIONS T. HOW CAN ELECTRICITY NEEDS BE MET? U. THE VALUE OF LANDSCAPE V. CONCLUSION Country Guardian's Policy on Windfarms Country Guardian believes that the development of commercial wind power that has taken place with government support since 1990 is misguided, ineffective and neither environmentally nor socially benign. We accept that wind energy has a role and that the countryside has always changed and will always change but we argue that the environmental and social cost of the development of commercial wind energy is quite out of proportion to any benefit in the form of reduced emissions.

  • New Ministerial Team at the Department of Health
    New Ministerial Team at the Department of Health The Rt Hon Alan Johnson MP Secretary of State for Health Alan Johnson was first elected to Parliament in 1997 as the Member for Kingston upon Hull. A former postman, Alan Johnson served as a former General Secretary of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) and is one of the largest trade union names to have entered Parliament in recent decades. Often credited with the much coveted tag of being an "ordinary bloke", he is highly articulate and effective and is credited with the successful campaign that deterred the previous Conservative government from privatising the Post Office. Popular among his peers, Alan Johnson is generally regarded to be on the centre right of the Labour Party and is well regarded by the Labour leadership. As a union member of Labour's ruling NEC (up to 1996) he was seen as supportive of Tony Blair's attempts to modernise the Labour Party. He was the only senior union leader to back the abolition of Labour's clause IV. He becomes the first former union leader to become a cabinet minister in nearly 40 years when he is appointed to the Work and Pensions brief in 2004. After moving to Trade and Industry, he becomes Education and Skills Secretary in May 2006. After being tipped by many as the front-runner in the Labour deputy leadership contest of 2007, Alan Johnson was narrowly beaten by Harriet Harman.
