We’ll not be looking at the big parliamentary news of the week here, for that we’ve done a separate article here. The devolved administrations were relatively quiet too this week, so just a quick newsflash from Westminster today. Westminster Perhaps the most interesting debate outside the budget this week came to us from the House […]

Westminster is back in action, and this week it is the Welsh who have declined to give me anything interesting to talk about. So we’ll avoid crossing the Severn for now and look at what else has been happening. Westminster A couple of weeks ago, we wrote about the Government’s much criticised plans to remove

Most of the time when a consultation draws our attention because of its length, it’s usually because it looks far too short. We’re talking here about the ones about an issue of great complexity with only 4 questions (such as the recent NHS reform consultation). One this week drew our attention for quite the opposite
One of the big concerns held by campaigners and concerned citizens recently has been that changes introduced ‘temporarily’ during the pandemic might be carried over after the return to normality without any consultation.

Like many of us in lockdown, I have been taking daily walks around my locality, something which has become significantly less chilly (albeit not much less damp) over the last week or so. On one of my walks this week, I came across something, or rather two somethings lying on the ground in a muddy
Westminster is in recess this week, so we have a slight pause from London-based politics. Equally, the Northern Ireland Assembly and the Welsh Senedd have not been that heavy on the consultation stories, so this week we’ll be travelling on the Caledonian Sleeper up to Edinburgh.

This morning’s Guardian carried an interesting comment piece from Sir Jonathan Jones QC, the former Treasury Solicitor who resigned after disagreeing with the Attorney-General about the Government’s plan to give ministers the power to breach international law during the Brexit negotiations at the end of last year. Sir Jonathan’s article argued that the decision-making and

The NHS White Paper contains much that was entirely predictable. Sorting out the legal mess created by the Coalition Government’s reorganisation has been a requirement for years as Managers devised ever more elaborate workarounds to repair the damage.
