Young people deserve a say in their future.

In Parliament, I asked the Minister to confirm that 16 and 17-year-olds will get the vote — and when. I was glad to hear confirmation that a plan and legislation will be set out before the summer.

When Mayor Farquhar met Lord Farquaad...

I've just seen Shrek the Musical at the Bournemouth Pavilion by Swish Theatre School

Talent and joy shone through from every performer, youngsters of all ages

Such amazing fun and vigour, everybody occupied their characters 100%

Not a month since the oath the 47th president now quotes Napoleon, who crowned himself an Emperor

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States"

As a National Trust Member I've voted, I urge you to use your vote to block those seeking election who support hunting or promote the Countryside Alliance

National Trust property and land needs protection from hunting and animal exploitation

Last week saw hunting bans on Ministry of Defence land
National Trust Members:

Time to use the Quick Vote Option to block the usual shenanigans from Farage/ Tufton St “Restore Trust”

You will find your membership number on your card or on an email from the National Trust sent to you in the last week or so.
