Introduction This paper provides Members with an update on the latest relevant developments for the Assembly following the vote to leave the EU on 23 June. Members should also refer to the Research Paper on the implications of the leave vote to Wales, published on 24 June. 2. Developments in Wales 2.1 Welsh Government The First Minister published a statement on 24 June on the referendum outcome, which identified six priorities for Wales: . Protecting jobs; . Full part to be played by the Welsh Government in discussions about the timing and terms of the UK withdrawal; . UK Government should negotiate access to the Single Market; . Continued participation in major programmes like CAP and Structural Funds up until end of 2020; . Overwhelming case for major revision of Barnett Formula to take into account needs arising from withdrawal from EU; 1 . Constitutional shift resulting from Brexit means ‘the relationship between Devolved Administrations and the UK Government must now be placed onto an entirely different footing’. The First Minister has also made a number of oral statements during plenary since then. On Briefing Page | 28 June, speaking about EU funding, in response to the Leader of the Opposition Leanne Wood AM, he said: I wrote to the Prime Minister yesterday. I asked him to guarantee every penny that we would lose, to make sure that came to Wales.

Licensed under CC BY 2.0 / image cropped 3 The Wilson Doctrine Summary The convention that MPs’ communications should not be intercepted by police or security services is known as the ‘Wilson Doctrine’. 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.

  • ANDREW MARR SHOW 9TH JUNE 2019 ESTHER MCVEY AM: Do You
    1 ESTHER MCVEY ANDREW MARR SHOW 9TH JUNE 2019 ESTHER MCVEY AM: Do you think, Esther McVey, that it makes a difference that you have a very different background – you didn’t go to Eton and all the rest of it – how would it feel different to have a woman of your background leading the Conservative Party? EM: Well, our party is a broad church. It always has been. It’s about meritocracy. And for me, our party’s also about social mobility. It’s about anybody can come from anywhere and achieve the highest post in the land, so long as they are prepared to work hard enough, so long as they can get a good team together and so long as you’ve got a vision that reaches out to the country. And that’s why I’m travelling the country all the time as part of a pub road show with blue collar Conservatives to really hear what people want us to do. Once we’ve delivered Brexit, what do they want after that? And they want money in schools, they want money going to police and they also, which I’ve announced today, is the public sector pay guarantee, because people want to know that they’re going to have a fair crack of the whip too. AM: But we’re not there yet. We’re not out of the EU yet. And your position on that is essentially that there’s not going to be another negotiation, they’re not really going to renegotiate, so we have to be prepared to leave at the end of October with no deal, if necessary.

Moses Cheboi) in the Chair] PRAYERS Hon. Deputy Speaker: Hon. Members, you know it is not very easy now to confirm the quorum. That is because we also have to know the number of Members who are in other holding areas. So, we will allow a few more members to come in and then we can make the final confirmation. Order Members, it is now confirmed that we have the required quorum and, therefore, business will begin. COMMUNICATION FROM THE CHAIR CHANGES IN THE MAJORITY PARTY LEADERSHIP Hon. Members, Standing Order 19(1) provides leeway for the largest party or coalition of parties in the National Assembly to elect a Member of the party or coalition of parties to serve as the Leader of the Majority Party. Further, Standing Order 19(3) outlines the procedure for removal of a Leader of the Majority Party. In this regard, Hon.

Copyright and re-use policy See http://shura.shu.ac.uk/information.html Sheffield Hallam University Research Archive http://shura.shu.ac.uk CHAPTER SEVENTEEN Holocaust Inversion in British Politics: The Case of David Ward Lesley Klaff INTRODUCTION Antisemitism in Britain is no longer the preserve of the political far right as it was throughout much of the 20th century. It is more commonly found on the left of the political spectrum where it masks itself as anti-Zionism and uses the language of human rights in the “fight for Palestine.”1 The 2006 All-Party Parliamentary Group Against Antisemitism found that Holocaust inversion— the provocative comparison between the brutal and genocidal Nazi treatment of the Jews with the policies and practices of the Israeli state towards the Palestinians and the associated idea that “the Jews” should have learnt a moral lesson from the Holocaust—is commonplace among the British left and Palestine solidarity groups, particularly during periods of conflict in the Middle East.2 Indeed, the portrayal of Israelis/Zionists/Jews as Nazis was a prominent feature of protests against the Iraq War, Operation Cast Lead, Operation Pillar of Defence, and most recently, Operation Protective Edge.

I wanted to ensure that we were making the most of not just the Cadet Forces but the many other youth engagement activities that the MOD, including the Armed Forces, undertake. I believe that not enough is done to promote the work that we do in this area. For too long we have been keeping Defence’s Youth Engagement activities to ourselves.
