Topic: Bristol South (UK Parliament constituency)

	BUCA - Issues
		Bristol University students now have the hope of a brighter future after David Martin was selected as the Prospective Conservative Parliamentary Candidate for Bristol West at a packed meeting of local Conservative Party members last November.

	Legal Resources
		South of a line from the Wash to the Severn estuary and outside London there were, in both 1983 and 1987, only three Labour seats.
		The semi-corollary of a high proportion of the constituencies being in 'safe-seat' territory is not merely that many voters pass their entire adult lives without ever voting for a winning candidate but that they also do so without any realistic hope of influencing a result.
		Nor does the respect in which Parliament is currently held, or the turn-out at elections, or the degree of commitment to the political process exhibited, particularly by the young, constitute a ringing endorsement of the present system.

	Bristol Green Party - Labour misleads electors on war vote
		Valerie Davey (and Doug Naysmith, Bristol North West) did vote for two amendments which stated that 'the case for military action against Iraq is as yet unproven' (Division 96, 26/2/2003) and that 'the case for war against Iraq has not yet been established' (Division 117, 18/3/2003).
		Labour MPs Dawn Primarolo (Bristol South) and Jean Corston (Bristol East) voted with the government all the way, both of them voting for the motion in Division 118 authorising military action.

	Bristol Green Party - Greens Condemn Labour's War Lies
		The Bristol Green Party has issued a damning statement exposing false claims made by Labour that Bristol West MP Valerie Davey opposed the Iraq war.
		An article in Labour's "Bristol West Rose" distributed to voters in the constituency, states baldly that "Valerie voted against the war, as was widely documented in the press at the time", adding that she is victim of a smear campaign.
		But Greens have produced Parliamentary records showing how in the two crucial divisions, when Parliament was asked to authorise military action, Valerie Davey did not oppose the government's war plans.

	England needs its own Parliament - Unexplained Mysteries Discussion Forums
		But if they got their own parliament again, then they could point to it knowing it was originally founded in 1153 and existed as the very Mother of Parliaments and the seed bed of modern democracy, and proudly say, that’s part of what we’ve achieved as the English nation.
		The UK Parliament and Government will henceforth be greatly slimmed down institutions dealing only with reserved matters that affect the whole of the UK, so there should not be any increase in bureaucracy and expenditure.
		Secondly, the UK Parliament would naturally retain responsibilities for the major matters concerning the whole, like defence, major taxation, foreign relations, matters of macro economics and matters of trade and transport which affect the whole of the UK.

		The outstanding harbour means it is the principal port on the south coast, and one of the largest in the UK.
		There are three members of parliament for the city: Rt Hon John Denham (Labour) for Southampton Itchen (constituency for the east of the city), Dr Alan Whitehead (Labour) for Southampton Test (the west of the city), and Sandra Gidley (Liberal Democrat) for Romsey (which includes a portion of the north of the city).
