We ourselves of the present age, chose our common law, and consented to the most ancient Acts of Parliament, for we lived in our ancestors 1,000 years ago, and those ancestors are still living in us

We have used the presence of UNMIK, as well as other European and American agencies to establish a legal framework compatible with the European Union and that is already an advantage. We have seen the positive effects of this and our parliament will conti...

We have to make it clear that one, two or even three BNP MEPs elected to Brussels will have very little effect on the workings of the Parliament and the Commission.

Those of us that have the opportunity to have a mouthpiece, then let`s keep talking about it. Right now if you look in the newspaper, there`s a lot of meaningless stuff. A lot of stuff about the inner workings of Parliament and nothing about what we can d...

That is why if Lebanon concludes a peace agreement with Israel and brings that accord to the Parliament our deputies will reject it; Hezbollah refuses any conciliation with Israel in principle.
Alexander Liberman
Some members of both Houses have, it is true, been removed from their employments under the Crown; but were they ever told, either by me or by any other of his majesty`s servants, that it was for opposing the measures of the administration in Parliament?

Parliament could revisit the Unfair Contracts Act . Consumers are finding that they can`t get digital content without signing an end user agreement whose terms and conditions are ridiculous.
