We had the pleasure of taking 6 politically engaged students to Angmering school today for a debate between the candidates standing for Worthing West constituency. The students discussed their ideas afterwards. Here's to more political engagement and participating in democracy!

@stuzi_pants Remember he is the nephew of Virgina and Peter Bottomley. Do your Googling and check him out. Tory nepotism is strong here. They don’t change through breeding. They bleed blue blood.

@WorthingCan I am grateful for the reminder but everyone should already be aware of my vocal opposition to the conflict and my desire for a peaceful resolution that is lasting and progressive for both a free state of Palestine and for Israel. Updates are on my website: sirpeterbottomley.com/campaigns/conf…

@StephPowell17 It’s certainly not the end of work to tackle the longstanding issue but was a welcome step in the right direction. For updates on my work, do visit my website. I can’t promise it to be as politically charged as the Lib Dem’s but I try to be informative. sirpeterbottomley.com/campaigns/tack…

@StephPowell17 Interesting that a heavily misleading graphic from Lib-Dem campaign head quarters is doing the round again. This was a vote on introducing an overdue but welcome target for an incredible 80% reduction in phosphates (most commonly but not solely from sewage) in our rivers.

Pleased to have contributed to this important area of discussion on #Biomass. Taking a chainsaw to the world’s forests is not and will never be acceptable. Historic mistakes may not be changed. Future ones can be avoided.
BBC Newsnight@BBCNewsnight

Drax is the UK's largest recipient of green subsidies for biomass. They've been under particular focus as this year the BBC reported it had burned wood from rare forests in Canada. Now, #Newsnight's @katelamble has seen evidence of almost 200 environmental breaches at the mills which turn wood, headed to Drax, into pellets.

🌳 CEN MP and Father of the House @PBottomleyMP explains why we should be tougher on biomass subsidies. Despite its questionable environmental credentials, the public has spent millions of pounds already.

@retrowedding68 You complained about my newsletter (which is already much longer than I like to make it) not including an update on WASPI. I informed you that the previous newsletter included said update.

@PBottomleyMP We could both be dead by then Peter. Remember what I said to you outside Parliament ‘us women are like Zulus when you think you’ve seen the last one a thousand more will come over the hill’ The biggest injustice towards women since our great grans won the vote #GE #50sWomen

Let us recognise the choice of national pride is not binary: it is not one or the other but, rather, both. Happy St George's Day to one and all in Arun, in Worthing and across the UK. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

On St George's Day, we also celebrate Shakespeare's birthday. Icons like Shakespeare show the strength of English culture and language on the international stage. In Summer, we will celebrate English teams at the Euros whilst at the same time cheering on Team GB at the Olympics.

@mrjoelclark It’s a pity we won’t get the joy of seeing him defeated. His next door neighbour, my MP Peter Bottomley certain to go too. He’s over 80years old & will probably retire.

@PARLYapp A remnant of our past perhaps sits happily with St Oscar Romero in my office. It is still collapsible!

Until 1998 an MP raising a point of order while the House was voting had to be "seated and covered", i.e. wearing a hat. Two opera hats were kept for this purpose - sometimes an MP would cover their head with an order paper while a hat was retrieved.

I understand why elected representatives are on national television in our federal parliament holding pieces of paper above their heads … But imagine if you didn’t. #qt #auspol @abcnews
