Ian Blackford: SNP’s Westminster leader facing calls to resign over handling of sexual harassment case

June 22, 2022 by news.sky.com

The SNP's Westminster leader Ian Blackford is facing fresh calls to step down amid mounting criticism over his reaction to one of his MPs sexually harassing a staff member. The victim, who was inappropriately touched by SNP MP Patrick Grady at a party in 2016, told Sky News: "Ian's position right now is untenable, and it will continue to be so. It will only get worse." He added: "Ian always talks about wanting to achieve independence, and that's his main goal, right now he's not doing the independence movement any favours by staying in post. "It's time for him to go." Mr Blackford has been under pressure after a leaked recording emerged in which he encouraged colleagues to support Mr Grady, the perpetrator in the harassment case.

He announced the launch of an external review of … [Read more...] about Ian Blackford: SNP’s Westminster leader facing calls to resign over handling of sexual harassment case

June 23, 2022 by www.cbsnews.com

Now this hound has something to toot his horn about. A bloodhound named Trumpet won the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on Wednesday night. Trumpet beat a French bulldog, a German shepherd, a Maltese, an English setter, a Samoyed and a Lakeland terrier to take the trophy. "I am so excited for Trumpet," said handler Heather Helmer, who co-owns and bred the 4-year-old. Trumpet became the first bloodhound to win Westminster. Winston, a French bulldog co-owned by NFL defensive lineman Morgan Fox, took second in the nation's most prestigious dog show. The competition drew more than 3,000 purebred dogs, ranging from affenpinschers to Yorkshire terriers. The goal is to crown the dog that most represents the ideal for its breed. Usually held in winter at New York City's Madison Square Garden, the show moved to the suburban Lyndhurst estate last year and this year because of the coronavirus pandemic. Westminster is often described as the Super Bowl of U.S. dog shows, and … [Read more...] about Bloodhound wins Best in Show at Westminster dog show

NI same-sex marriage bill blocked at Westminster

By Gareth Gordon Published 11 May 2018 Share close Share page Copy link About sharing A bill to bring same-sex marriage to Northern Ireland has been blocked from moving to the next stage in the legislative process at Westminster. It was brought by Labour MP Conor McGinn who said he had expected the government to object to the bill. The bill was introduced for its second reading at the House of Commons. A conservative MP objected and the bill was re-listed for a date in October. Mr McGinn, is originally from south Armagh. The bill was brought as a so-called Ten Minute Rule Bill. Bills introduced in this way rarely become law. How a bill becomes law To become law a bill has to pass through a number of stages in the House of Commons and the House of Lords.

Nicola Sturgeon to lay out ‘route map’ to new independence vote, even if Westminster says no

June 28, 2022 by news.sky.com

The Scottish people must be allowed to have "the democratic choice they have voted for", with another referendum on independence, Scotland's First Minister has said. Nicola Sturgeon made the comments ahead of laying out what she has called the "route map" to another independence vote, even if Westminster tries to block the plans. Under the Scotland Act, the UK government would need to make a so-called section 30 order to permit a referendum. Such an Order in Council was issued ahead of the 2014 independence vote under the the Edinburgh agreement between Westminster and Holyrood. Boris Johnson insists that, in the interest of stability, no section 30 order will be issued, while Ms Sturgeon asserts that one cannot be reasonably refused. She says SNP's victory in the 2021 Holyrood election gives her the mandate to hold another referendum, which she wants before the end of 2023.

Snowdonia: Council asks Westminster to revive Llanbedr bypass

June 29, 2022 by www.bbc.co.uk

Published 3 hours ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing A council is trying to bypass the hold on new road developments in Wales by getting help from Westminster. Gwynedd Council will bid for UK government cash to try and restore hopes of getting a new road built around a village in Snowdonia. The Welsh government withdrew financial support last year for a £14m bypass around Llanbedr, citing climate change. But supporters of a scheme first mooted 60 years ago said a solution to traffic problems was needed. Wales' deputy minister for climate change, Lee Waters, said building more roads was not the way forward. All new road-building projects in Wales were frozen last year while a review is carried out.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan had the perfect response for Donald Trump Jr’s rant about the Westminster terror attack

March 23, 2017 by www.mirror.co.uk

Sadiq Khan delivered the perfect response to Donald Trump Jr’s snarky rant in the wake of the London terror attack . The President’s son lashed out at the London Mayor within hours of the deadly attack in the capital yesterday. He dug out an old article, which quoted the Mayor as saying terror attacks were ‘part and parcel’ of living in a major city. In an interview for the Evening Standard last September, Mr Khan warned that people living in major cities “have to be prepared” for terror incidents to happen when people least expect them. ( Image: Getty Images North America) ( Image: REUTERS) He added: “That means being vigilant, having a police force that is in touch with communities, it means the security services being ready, but it also means exchanging ideas and best practice.” Mr Trump tweeted the link along with a comment: “You have to be kidding me?!” Sadiq Khan was asked about the tweet during an interview with CNN.

‘Long may Jacob Rees-Mogg lounge’ – Telegraph readers review the week in Westminster

September 6, 2019 by www.telegraph.co.uk

Legislative filibuster, mass MP expulsion and the loss of a working majority were all in a day’s work for the Brexit storm that returned to shake Westminster to its foundations this week. Some called the loss of the Prime Minister’s power unprecedented, but the loss of a brother's support may yet prove to be more damning. Opposition MPs blocked both a no-deal departure from the EU and a snap election. Jacob Rees-Mogg, meanwhile, broke the internet. As ever, Telegraph readers were quick to provide their perspectives on the week's biggest moments in politics. Read on for the highlights and then take to the comments section to have your say.
