Here's a draft of the conference schedule

[Grace Cooper @Grace_Cooper1]

REGISTRATION NOW OPEN 🎉

The PSA Parliaments Annual Conference 2025 will be hosted by the Department of Politics and International Relations at the University of York in conjunction with The White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership on the 27th-28th November!

[Grace Cooper @Grace_Cooper1]

I am a little bit biased but York is an amazing city and between the excellent papers, the historical venue, the Christmas markets, as well as the excellent food and drinks organised, its shaping up to be a really great conference! We hope to see you in York in November!

The Modernisation Committee is a new committee of the House of Commons, first proposed by Labour in its 2024 manifesto.

But what issues will it look at? How might it operate? And what problems might the committee face?

Select Committee allocation is out following negotiations. Conservatives will chair Culture, Media and Sport; Home Affairs; Public Accounts; Public Administration; Standards. Lib Dem’s get Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Health and Social Care. All else is Labour 1/

[John Curtis @JohnHoCLibrary]

Today the Speaker should tell the parties how many Select Committees they will get to Chair. This is worked out in proportion to how many seats each party gained. The Whips will then agree which Committees each party will lead, but this may not be announced for a while 1/4

If this is a cabinet reshuffle …#GeneralElection

[Grace Cooper @Grace_Cooper1]

Being in Westminster with all of this election chatter going on is potentially the most exciting day of work in my life… yes I am aware of how sad that is

A great initiative to make data about MPs' financial interests and All-Party Parliamentary Groups more accessible

This is a fantastic opportunity for politics students to gain research experience. (There is a thank you voucher as well.)

Please tell your students! DL is 28th May
