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 .

Democracy requires that referendums be conducted fairly, but the rules surrounding referendums in a fair process? the UK remain deeply contested. As reported in Monitor 61 (page 12) and 62 (page 11), the legislation enabling the The forthcoming referendum on whether the UK referendum passed through parliament last year amidst should remain a member of the European Union or leave much controversy and only after multiple government – to be held on 23 June – has raised many important concessions. Since David Cameron announced the date constitutional questions. of the vote on 20 February, five important aspects of referendum conduct have received particular attention. In part, these concern the implications that a vote for Brexit would have for the constitution and the First, in line with the Prime Minister’s announcement distribution of power in the UK and the EU.

  • Letter 13 October 2016 to Rt Hon Boris Johnson, Foreign Secretary
    International Development Committee House of Commons, London, SW1 A OAA • Tel: 020 7219 1223 Email: [email protected] Website: www.parliament.uk/indcom From Stephen Twigg MP, Chair Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs Foreign and Commonwealth Office 13 October 2016 Follow-up to emergency debate on Syria and Aleppo Dear Boris, Further to the debate on Tuesday on 'Aleppo and Syria' I am writing to seek detailed answers to questions I raised. These questions arise from the International Development Committee's work. I am copying in Priti Patel and Amber Rudd as some of my questions relate to DFID and Home Office responsibilities. You may be aware the Committee published a Report on the Syrian refugee crisis in January of this year. 1 We recommended the Government should resettle 3,000 unaccompanied children from Europe in addition to the commitment to resettle 20,000 refugees from the region (para 63). It should also carry out resettlement quickly (para 65). In May 2016 in response to the amendments put forward by Lord Dubs to the Immigration Bill the Government announced that "Unaccompanied asylum-seeking children will be resettled from Greece, Italy and France" .2 The Immigration Act 2016 contained commitments that: 1. The Secretary of State must, as soon as possible after the passing of this Act, make arrangements to relocate to the United Kingdom and support a specified number of unaccompanied refugee children from other countries in Europe. 2. The number of children to be resettled under subsection (1) shall be determined by the Government in consultation with local authorities.

  • 1 Andrew Marr Show, Jeremy Hunt, Mp
    1 ANDREW MARR SHOW, JEREMY HUNT, MP ANDREW MARR SHOW, 30TH JUNE, 2019 JEREMY HUNT, MP Foreign Secretary AM: Now the truth of the matter is, you know, you’re making a bit of progress but you’re still far, far behind Boris Johnson, and that’s partly down to your own use of language. Do you regret calling him a coward? JH: Well what I said is, “don’t be a coward,” because I think it’s a great shame. This is actually the last of your shows before many Conservative Party members will vote, because they’ll be getting their ballot papers in the next few days and he hasn’t been on here, he hasn’t been prepared to do head to head debates with me before people vote and I think people want a contest; I think that’s respectful to members and I think it will be much better for whoever’s Prime Minister to have that had contest first. So I think what we need is a bit of mojo from Bo-Jo. AM: Now you have also said he must be straight with people. Being straight is our motto here today. JH: I’m always straight on your show, Andrew. AM: Of course you are. In that spirit I want to ask about the Hunt spending splurge, because it seems like an awful lot of money. Corporation Tax, your proposals on Corporation Tax would cost about £13 billion, where would that come from? JH: Well we have about £26 billion of headroom at the moment, and this is a very – AM: I thought you’d say that.

  • 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.
