Wednesday 18th November saw the eighth Queens Speech since I was first elected and doubtless the last Gordon Brown will ever write for the Queen! The next 5 days were given over to debate on different aspects of what the Government had and had not promised to do before Gordon is finally forced to face the electorate in a few months time.
Commenting on the start of the Copenhagen Climate Summit today Chesterfield MP Paul Holmes criticised the Labour Government's 'warm words' on the need to tackle climate change. Paul said:
Paul Holmes, Liberal Democrat MP for Chesterfield today wrote to the Chancellor, Alistair Darling to express his urgent concern about the proposed cuts to the Warm Front Scheme budget for 2010.
Chesterfield MP Paul Holmes has written to Derbyshire County Council calling again for the controversial Dunston Incinerator to be rejected.
During Tuesday's Health questions in Parliament, Paul asked the Minister:
It is often said that once the juggernaut of a Super Tanker is underway then it can take a mile or more to stop it, even when the engines are thrown into full reverse. Getting the Government to admit it is wrong and change direction is much the same!
