Weekly Whip w/c 14th September

Monday 14th September

Monday's news was heavily dominated by the United Kingdom Internal Market Bill. MPs from across the House had already raised serious concerns last week when it was noted by a government official that the Bill would break international law in a "specific and limited way".

Local electricity can reduce electricity bills

Norfolk Liberal Democrats are calling on Norfolk County Council to join the cross party support of 151 MPs and to request the Government and Norfolk's MPs to support a bill that could make electricity cheaper for local residents.

The Local Electricity Bill is currently being considered in Parliament and it would give electricity generators such as a local community centre the right to become local suppliers - i.e. sell their energy directly to local people - and make it financially viable to do so.

Every day Liberal Democrat councillors are working hard to help their communities across the country.

We understand that often the most meaningful change happens at a local level. That's why we have such a strong record in local and community politics.

We're so proud to have hardworking local councillors like Flick striving to deliver real change for people in their area. Thanks Flick!

Let me be clear about this: I am passionately pro-European.

I am proud that we stood by our pro-EU values throughout the Brexit process, giving voice to the millions of Remainers who didn't see themselves included in the future that Boris Johnson was trying to build.

I could not have predicted the almighty shambles that we are seeing now with Brexit.

Tonight, Jewish communities in the UK and around the world will mark Rosh Hashanah - the Jewish New Year.

The Jewish High Holidays are a time of deep contemplation and self-reflection. They are an opportunity for all of us to look back on the past year as we set new goals for the future.

This year has been particularly challenging; we have all had to adjust to new ways of living, whilst grappling with economic uncertainty.
