Hazel Grove MP 2015-2024.

Marple, United Kingdom
Joined July 2013
I send my sincere condolences to Andrew Stunell’s friends and family during their time of grief. Lord Stunell served as Hazel Grove’s MP from 1997 until 2015. He was held in high regard locally for his extensive public service. May he rest in peace.

Good Friday is the day when Christians remember the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. Today, many congregations will take part in a Walk of Witness through their local streets, in remembrance of Jesus' walk with his cross through Jerusalem. #WatchAndPray

Maundy Thursday commemorates Jesus sharing the Last Supper with his disciples and commanding them to  "Love one another as I have loved you."  The tradition of the Monarch or their representative presenting alms on Maundy Thursday goes back to 1213.

Though The King was unable to attend today, a recorded message from His Majesty was played at the service, describing this year’s recipients as, “wonderful examples of such kindness; of going way beyond the call of duty and of giving so much of their lives to the service of others in their communities.”

The awarding of a knighthood to someone who lied to the Prime Minister’s ethics advisor sets a dangerous precedent

Chris Bryant openly admitting he & his party manipulated the rules to get what they wanted. Perhaps now some commentators would like to revise their deeply naive & misguided accounts of what occurred last Wednesday & stop blaming @theSNP?

Either the Speaker bowed to the mob or to Keir Starmer. He must go thetimes.co.uk/article/f8512…

Sad news. Ronnie was a kind and conscientious MP.
Very sad to hear that Ronnie Campbell has died. Blyth Valley MP from 1987 to 2019; a former miner who cared deeply about his community and working people. He never ducked an interview, was great company, and full of character humour and passion. He deserved a longer retirement.

As a keen constitutionalist, you’ll observe they are two separate parliaments with two sets of rules. I could write a book I suppose.
I hadn’t realised that the procedure the Commons followed on Wednesday is the same procedure that the SNP government use in the Scottish parliament for opposition day debates.

Labour MPs, many of whom I can call friends, and who would cheer me to the rafters when I was being a thorn in the side of my own government, should reflect. How would they feel if the boot was on the other foot?

For the record, it was my intention to vote for the SNP motion on a ceasefire in Gaza. I respect all colleagues who hold different views to me about this serious issue. What mattered was the chance show to our constituents what we thought of the SNP motion. We were denied this.

Plain fact is that Mr Speaker acted in a partisan way to meet the needs of Kier Starmer in managing his party. He changed the rules of the game. That is not the action of an impartial referee. All other considerations are secondary in this matter.
