Sorry, I can’t help myself. The fact that John Bercow has called for an end to the ‘12 week MPs holiday’ demonstrates that for him, that is exactly what it was!

I, and many other MPs have been hard back at work since the beginning of September. He must be joking if he thinks that anyone who gives a jot about their constituency can take twelve weeks off.

I am all for Parliament returning in September but it will mean that the time I spend on constituency issues will be dramatically reduced.

This announcement is nothing more than playing to the media gallery.

Public Meeting.

Just a reminder for everyone in my patch that the public ‘Westminster Forum’ meeting is taking place at Marston Vale Forest Centre, tomorrow September 26^th 2009 from 2pm to 4pm.

The agenda is as follows.

All welcome.
