In his lecture The Right Hon. John Bercow, MP, will examine the way Parliament works, tracking the modernisation process under his watch from the nadir of the 2009 expenses scandal to today.
Since his election as the 157th Speaker of the House of Commons in June 2009, Bercow has helped to secure enhanced scrutiny of policy and decision-making, greater transparency, more opportunities for backbench MPs and Select Committees, a focus on diversity and inclusion in Parliament, and measures to instil a culture in which the legislature is at the forefront of setting the political agenda. Mr Bercow explains what has been achieved so far, and what still needs to be done.
John Bercow, who was awarded an honorary degree by the University last year, was born in Middlesex in January 1963. He grew up in London and graduated from the University of Essex with a first class honours degree in Government in 1985. He was a member of the Conservative Party from 1980 until he rescinded his party membership in 2009 on becoming Speaker of the House of Commons. John married Sally Illman in 2002 and they have three children. In spite of his duties as Speaker, he is an active MP for the Buckingham constituency.

UKIP leader Nigel Farage MEP kicked off the UKIP 2014 European Election campaign at a public meeting at Chalfont St. Peter, Buckinghamshire on the 25 January. The event was organised by the Chesham and Amersham constituency branch of UKIP. After an enthralling speech, Nigel engaged the audience in a 'Question and Answer' session, addressing such subjects as 'gay marriage', the possibility of electoral pacts, shale fracking, and trade with Europe after a British withdrawal from the E.U. And, of course, he discussed the local horror story that is HS2. UKIP is the only party to oppose this wasteful project. Nigel is joined by Councillor Alan Stevens (Bucks County Councillor, Chesham and Amersham UK Parliamentary candidate and South-East England European Parliamentary candidate) and the meeting is chaired by Councillor David Meacock of Chiltern District Council.

Michael Foot talks about a young Tony Blair, with footage from the 1982 by-election in Beaconsfield.
The Beaconsfield by-election was a parliamentary by-election held on 27 May 1982 for the British House of Commons constituency of Beaconsfield in Buckinghamshire.
A safe Tory seat, the Labour Party selected as its candidate an unknown and untested 29-year-old barrister called Tony Blair, an aspiring politician who had been advised by Labour MP Tom Pendry to seek the party's nomination to gain political experience.
On a slightly reduced turnout, the result was a win for the Conservatives' Tim Smith, with a fractional increase in their share of the vote. Labour's vote was nearly halved from 20.2% in 1979, down to 10.4%, and Blair lost his deposit as his vote was below the 12.5% threshold. The relatively good Conservative showing was partly attributed to the surge in support for the government due to the on-going Falklands War.
It is notable for being the only election Blair lost in his political career.

John Mann makes a passionate speech about CSA on the 1st day of the new parliament. He inducts new members into the 'scandal' of CSA in the country, and explains that he has put down an early day motion asking for the Official Secrets Act to be lifted for officials who wish to give evidence to help answer the question of how Cyril Smith, and others, were allowed to get away with prolific child abuse for so many years?
From Hansard:
"There is one other issue that new Members need to be aware of, because it is going to haunt this Parliament. Yesterday on Sky television, Esther outlined it bravely. I have been in touch with her today. She has gone to the police with the name of an MP who she and others allege abused her as a child, but I am expecting other people with other names to come forward from other parts of the country in the near future. Others have already gone to the police. The scandal of historical child abuse in this country will be one of the defining issues of the next five years. It is going to corrode everything during this Parliament because it is so huge and involves so many people. Just in my area, I have had people come to me. One man was kept as a slave, forced to work in a foundry, aged 11 to 16, and that is nice compared to what happened to the rest of his family. I have 26 victims of child abuse just in my constituency who have been to see me—and who am I for them to come to? That is how big this scandal across the country is.
The last Government were right to set up the Goddard inquiry. I have tabled an early-day motion—for those who do not know, an early-day motion is usually a bit of nonsense we sign so we can send letters to people telling them how good we are—calling on the Government to lift the restrictions of the Official Secrets Act, because a lot of people, including former members of special branch, want to speak out to answer the basic question I pose to anyone who wants to know: why was Cyril Smith allowed to get away with prolific child abuse for so many years? But it was not just Smith. There were far more, and what was revealed in Staffordshire yesterday was just one other aspect.
My constituency is no worse than anywhere else in the country. This is nationwide and touches every aspect of society. The number of people, on top of the 26, who have been to see me who do not want the police involved, never want to go public and never actually want to say anything is phenomenal. That is how they have dealt with that childhood trauma—and it is their right to do so. A man flew back from Canada, having not visited my constituency in 30 years because of what happened to him, to spend 20 minutes in the library of my surgery, just to tell me about it, knowing nothing could be done, before flying back again. That is the impact of historical child abuse, and this Parliament is going to have to deal with it."

"That this House believes that justice for the survivors of child abuse should be a priority for the Government; notes that concerns have been raised by current and former police officers and special branch officers that by coming forward with evidence related to child abuse they could be prosecuted under the Official Secrets Act 1989; and calls on the Government to introduce legislation to remove the threat of prosecution for anyone who has reasonable cause to believe that the information, document or article they disclose is relevant to an official investigation of, or inquiry into, historic child abuse.

fGW Class 150/0 diesel multiple units working between Reading and Basingstoke
A selection of short clips showing the two First Great Western operated Class 150/0 diesel multiple units at work on the line between Reading and Basingstoke.
All clips were recorded on Thursday 12th February 2015.
Clip 1 - 150001 arrives at Reading West to form the 10:41 to Basingstoke.
Clip 2 (0:25) - View from inside 150001 passing 150002 at Mortimer station.

The British Rail Class 150 "Sprinter" diesel multiple-units (DMUs) were built by BREL York from 1984 to 1987. A total of 137 units were produced in three main subclasses, replacing many of the earlier first-generation "Heritage" DMUs.
At the beginning of the 1980s, British Rail (BR) had a large fleet of ageing "Heritage" DMUs built to many different designs in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Some of the more reliable types were retained and refurbished. BR decided to replace many of the non-standard or unreliable types with new second-generation units, built to modern standards. Two different types were developed; low-cost "Pacers", built using bus parts and intended for short-distance services; and "Sprinters", based on BR's Mark 3 bodyshell design, for use on longer-distance services.
In 1984, BREL built two prototype 3-car Class 150/0 units, numbered 150001 and 150002. 150001 was fitted with Cummins engines and Voith hydraulic transmission, and 150002 was fitted with Perkins (Rolls-Royce) engines and Self-Changing Gears mechanical transmission.
The design specifications of the prototypes were similar to the later production units, but they were to remain as the only Class 150s to be built as 3-car units.
The two prototype 3-car Class 150/0 units transferred from London Midland have replaced the Class 165 and 166 Turbo units currently used by First Great Western on the Reading to Basingstoke Line, which allowed the Turbo units to reinforce Thames Valley services. 150001 entered service in January 2012.

First Great Western is a British train operating company owned by FirstGroup. It provides the majority of commuter and outer-suburban services from its Central London terminus at London Paddington to West London and the Thames Valley region including Berkshire, parts of Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire along with long-distance inter-city services via the Great Western Main Line to South West England and South Wales.
First Great Western uses its large fleet of 58 HST "InterCity 125" sets (seven or eight Mk III coaches between two Class 43 locomotives) to operate most long-distance services.
The Class 165 "Thames Turbo" is a two- or three-coach DMU used on shorter-distance services in the Thames Valley area. They are based at Reading Traction Maintenance Depot. All Class 165 units have received First Great Western Neon Dynamic Lines livery.

It is part of the borough of Basingstoke and Deane and part of the parliamentary constituency of Basingstoke. Basingstoke is often nicknamed "Doughnut City" or "Roundabout City" because of the number of large roundabouts.

Buckingham is a town in north Buckinghamshire, England, close to the borders of Northamptonshire and Oxfordshire. The town has a population of 11,572 (United Kingdom Census 2001), (2007 est. 13,200). Buckingham is also a civil parish designated as a town council.
Buckingham was declared the county town of Buckinghamshire in the 10th century when it was made the capital of the newly formed shire of Buckingham until Aylesbury took over this role early in the 18th century.
Buckingham has a variety of restaurants and pubs, typical of a small market town. It has a small number of local shops, both national and independent. Market days are Tuesday and Saturday which take over Market Hill and the High Street cattle pens. Buckingham is twinned with Mouvaux, France.
In the 7th century, Buckingham, literally "meadow of Bucca's people" is said to have been founded by Bucca, the leader of the first Anglo Saxon settlers. The first settlement was located around the top of a loop in the River Great Ouse, presently the Hunter Street campus of the University of Buckingham. Between the 7th century and the 11th century, the town of Buckingham regularly changed hands between the Saxons and the Danes, in particular, in 914 King Edward the Elder and a Saxon army encamped in Buckingham for four weeks forcing local Danish Viking leaders to surrender. Subsequently a fort was constructed at the location of the present Buckingham parish church.

Anthony Charles Lynton Blair (born 6 May 1953) is a British Labour Party politician who served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2 May 1997 to 27 June 2007. He was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Sedgefield from 1983 to 2007 and Leader of the Labour Party from 1994 to 2007. He resigned from all of these positions in June 2007.
Blair was elected Leader of the Labour Party in the leadership election of July 1994, following the sudden death of his predecessor, John Smith. Under his leadership, the party used the phrases "New Labour" and "New Socialism" to define its policy, and moved away from its support of state socialism since the 1960s and created a new version of the ethical socialism that was last pursued by Clement Attlee. Critics of Blair claim that "New Labour" did not adhere to socialism as claimed, and that it effectively advocated capitalism. Blair subsequently led Labour to a landslide victory in the 1997 general election. At 43 years old, he became the youngest Prime Minister since Lord Liverpool in 1812. In the first years of the New Labour government, Blair's government implemented a number of 1997 manifesto pledges, introducing the minimum wage, Human Rights Act and Freedom of Information Act, and carrying out devolution, establishing the Scottish Parliament, the National Assembly for Wales, and the Northern Ireland Assembly.

David William Donald Cameron (pronunciation: /ˈkæmərən/; born 9 October 1966) is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, First Lord of the Treasury, Minister for the Civil Service and Leader of the Conservative Party. He represents Witney as its Member of Parliament (MP).
Cameron studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) at Oxford, gaining a first class honours degree. He then joined the Conservative Research Department and became Special Adviser to Norman Lamont, and then to Michael Howard. He was Director of Corporate Affairs at Carlton Communications for seven years.
He was defeated in his first candidacy for Parliament at Stafford in 1997, but was elected in 2001 as the Member of Parliament for the Oxfordshire constituency of Witney. He was promoted to the Opposition front bench two years later, and rose rapidly to become head of policy co-ordination during the 2005 general election campaign. With a public image of a youthful, moderate candidate who would appeal to young voters, he won the Conservative leadership election in 2005.

A total of 137 units were produced in three main subclasses, replacing many of the earlier first-generation "Heritage" DMUs. At the beginning of the 1980s, British Rail (BR) had a large fleet of ageing "Heritage" DMUs built to many different designs in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Some of the more reliable types were retained and refurbished. BR decided to replace many of the non-standard or unreliable types with new second-generation units, built to modern standards. Two different types were developed; low-cost "Pacers", built using bus parts and intended for short-distance services; and "Sprinters", based on BR's Mark 3 bodyshell design, for use on longer-distance services. In 1984, BREL built two prototype 3-car Class 150/0 units, numbered 150001 and 150002. 150001 was fitted with Cummins engines and Voith hydraulic transmission, and 150002 was fitted with Perkins (Rolls-Royce) engines and Self-Changing Gears mechanical transmission. The design specifications of the prototypes were similar to the later production units, but they were to remain as the only Class 150s to be built as 3-car units. The two prototype 3-car Class 150/0 units transferred from London Midland have replaced the Class 165 and 166 Turbo units currently used by First Great Western on the Reading to Basingstoke Line, which allowed the Turbo units to reinforce Thames Valley services. 150001 entered service in January 2012. -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ First Great Western is a British train operating company owned by FirstGroup. It provides the majority of commuter and outer-suburban services from its Central London terminus at London Paddington to West London and the Thames Valley region including Berkshire, parts of Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire along with long-distance inter-city services via the Great Western Main Line to South West England and South Wales. First Great Western uses its large fleet of 58 HST "InterCity 125" sets (seven or eight Mk III coaches between two Class 43 locomotives) to operate most long-distance services. The Class 165 "Thames Turbo" is a two- or three-coach DMU used on shorter-distance services in the Thames Valley area. They are based at Reading Traction Maintenance Depot. All Class 165 units have received First Great Western Neon Dynamic Lines livery. -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Reading is a large town and unitary authority area in the county of Berkshire, England. It is located in the Thames Valley at the confluence of the River Thames and River Kennet, and on both the Great Western Main Line railway and the M4 motorway. Reading is located 36 miles (58 km) east from Swindon, 24 miles (39 km) south from Oxford, 36 miles (58 km) west of central London, and 14 miles (23 km) north from Basingstoke. The Borough of Reading has a population of 145,700 (2008 estimate) and the town formed the largest part of the Reading/Wokingham Urban Area which had a population of 369,804 (2001 census).

BBC Straight Talk - Andrew Neil interviews UKIP Leader Lord Pearson 1 of 3BBC Straight Talk - Andrew Neil interviews UKIP Leader Lord Pearson 1 of 3
Lord Pearson of Rannock, who could be described as the custodian leader of UKIP since the resignation of Nigel Farage at short notice (in order to contest The Speaker of The House of Commons in Buckinghamshire), negotiates the obstacle course laid out for him by Andrew Neil in what can only really be considered a hostile interview. The recently elected leader of The UK Independence Party is forced to justify his reluctant bid for, and resultant leadership of the party in light it's being a perceived conflict (by Mr. Neil at least) with his sitting in The House of Lords, to which he was appointed by Margaret (now Baroness) Thatcher. Lord Rannoch attemps to dispell what he sees as "the economic myths" of leaving the European Union and puts forward his view of the likely impacts upon trade, commerce, freedom of movement, healthcare and immigration; using Switzerland as an example he tries to illustrate the likely reciprocal, bilateral agreements that would be made between the EU and UK in the event of our withdrawal after a no vote at a referendum. Lord P elaborates on the party's plan not to contest affirmed eurosceptic candidates from other parties but rather, in a somewhat radical manner, to campaign on their behalf in their Constituencies. He also explains why UKIP believes that a hung Parliament would benefit the party and it's cause. Whatever your political persuation, I'm sure you will leave this with the impression that Lord P is a genuine, cordial and measured man; if perhaps a reluctant politician.

The way Parliament works - The Right Hon. John Bercow, MP
In his lecture The Right Hon. John Bercow, MP, will examine the way Parliament works, tracking the modernisation process under his watch from the nadir of the 2009 expenses scandal to today. Since his election as the 157th Speaker of the House of Commons in June 2009, Bercow has helped to secure enhanced scrutiny of policy and decision-making, greater transparency, more opportunities for backbench MPs and Select Committees, a focus on diversity and inclusion in Parliament, and measures to instil a culture in which the legislature is at the forefront of setting the political agenda. Mr Bercow explains what has been achieved so far, and what still needs to be done. John Bercow, who was awarded an honorary degree by the University last year, was born in Middlesex in January 1963. He grew up... -

Nigel Farage at Chalfont St. Peter January 25 2014
UKIP leader Nigel Farage MEP kicked off the UKIP 2014 European Election campaign at a public meeting at Chalfont St. Peter, Buckinghamshire on the 25 January. The event was organised by the Chesham and Amersham constituency branch of UKIP. After an enthralling speech, Nigel engaged the audience in a 'Question and Answer' session, addressing such subjects as 'gay marriage', the possibility of electoral pacts, shale fracking, and trade with Europe after a British withdrawal from the E.U. And, of course, he discussed the local horror story that is HS2. UKIP is the only party to oppose this wasteful project. Nigel is joined by Councillor Alan Stevens (Bucks County Councillor, Chesham and Amersham UK Parliamentary candidate and South-East England European Parliamentary candidate) and ... -
Michael Foot & Tony Blair - 1982 by-election in Beaconsfield
Michael Foot talks about a young Tony Blair, with footage from the 1982 by-election in Beaconsfield. The Beaconsfield by-election was a parliamentary by-election held on 27 May 1982 for the British House of Commons constituency of Beaconsfield in Buckinghamshire. A safe Tory seat, the Labour Party selected as its candidate an unknown and untested 29-year-old barrister called Tony Blair, an aspiring politician who had been advised by Labour MP Tom Pendry to seek the party's nomination to gain political experience. On a slightly reduced turnout, the result was a win for the Conservatives' Tim Smith, with a fractional increase in their share of the vote. Labour's vote was nearly halved from 20.2% in 1979, down to 10.4%, and Blair lost his deposit as his vote was below the 12.5% thresh... -

From Hansard: "There is one other issue that new Members need to be aware of, because it is going to haunt this Parliament. Yesterday on Sky television, Esther outlined it bravely. I have been in touch with her today. She has gone to the police with the name of an MP who she and others allege abused her as a child, but I am expecting other people with other names to come for... -

Cameron's Conservatives to Be Biggest Party, Close to Majority: UK Exit Poll
British Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservatives are on course to win the most seats in parliament but will be just shy of an outright majority, an exit poll showed on Thursday after voting closed in a national election. The poll put the Conservatives on 316 seats and the opposition Labour Party on 239. The Scottish National Party (SNP) is set to win 58 seats and the centrist Liberal Democrats 10 seats in the 650-seat Westminster parliament, according to the poll, released by national broadcasters.

AV Referendum Background
More detail: Historical context AV for the House of Commons has been debated in Parliament many times since 1917. Both the Liberals and Labour have supported the change at one time or another. In 1950 all constituencies became single-member and all votes non-transferable. From then until 2010, the Labour and Conservative parties always voted down proposals for moving away from this system for the Commons, which came to be known as 'First Past the Post'. Other voting systems were introduced for various other British elections. STV was re-introduced in Northern Ireland and list-PR introduced for European elections except in Northern Ireland. While out of power, the Labour party set up a working group to examine electoral reform. The resulting Plant commission reported in 1993 and recom... -

In his lecture The Right Hon. John Bercow, MP, will examine the way Parliament works, tracking the modernisation process under his watch from the nadir of the 2009 expenses scandal to today.
Since his election as the 157th Speaker of the House of Commons in June 2009, Bercow has helped to secure enhanced scrutiny of policy and decision-making, greater transparency, more opportunities for backbench MPs and Select Committees, a focus on diversity and inclusion in Parliament, and measures to instil a culture in which the legislature is at the forefront of setting the political agenda. Mr Bercow explains what has been achieved so far, and what still needs to be done.
John Bercow, who was awarded an honorary degree by the University last year, was born in Middlesex in January 1963. He grew up in London and graduated from the University of Essex with a first class honours degree in Government in 1985. He was a member of the Conservative Party from 1980 until he rescinded his party membership in 2009 on becoming Speaker of the House of Commons. John married Sally Illman in 2002 and they have three children. In spite of his duties as Speaker, he is an active MP for the Buckingham constituency.

UKIP leader Nigel Farage MEP kicked off the UKIP 2014 European Election campaign at a public meeting at Chalfont St. Peter, Buckinghamshire on the 25 January. The event was organised by the Chesham and Amersham constituency branch of UKIP. After an enthralling speech, Nigel engaged the audience in a 'Question and Answer' session, addressing such subjects as 'gay marriage', the possibility of electoral pacts, shale fracking, and trade with Europe after a British withdrawal from the E.U. And, of course, he discussed the local horror story that is HS2. UKIP is the only party to oppose this wasteful project. Nigel is joined by Councillor Alan Stevens (Bucks County Councillor, Chesham and Amersham UK Parliamentary candidate and South-East England European Parliamentary candidate) and the meeting is chaired by Councillor David Meacock of Chiltern District Council.

Michael Foot talks about a young Tony Blair, with footage from the 1982 by-election in Beaconsfield.
The Beaconsfield by-election was a parliamentary by-election held on 27 May 1982 for the British House of Commons constituency of Beaconsfield in Buckinghamshire.
A safe Tory seat, the Labour Party selected as its candidate an unknown and untested 29-year-old barrister called Tony Blair, an aspiring politician who had been advised by Labour MP Tom Pendry to seek the party's nomination to gain political experience.
On a slightly reduced turnout, the result was a win for the Conservatives' Tim Smith, with a fractional increase in their share of the vote. Labour's vote was nearly halved from 20.2% in 1979, down to 10.4%, and Blair lost his deposit as his vote was below the 12.5% threshold. The relatively good Conservative showing was partly attributed to the surge in support for the government due to the on-going Falklands War.
It is notable for being the only election Blair lost in his political career.

John Mann makes a passionate speech about CSA on the 1st day of the new parliament. He inducts new members into the 'scandal' of CSA in the country, and explains that he has put down an early day motion asking for the Official Secrets Act to be lifted for officials who wish to give evidence to help answer the question of how Cyril Smith, and others, were allowed to get away with prolific child abuse for so many years?
From Hansard:
"There is one other issue that new Members need to be aware of, because it is going to haunt this Parliament. Yesterday on Sky television, Esther outlined it bravely. I have been in touch with her today. She has gone to the police with the name of an MP who she and others allege abused her as a child, but I am expecting other people with other names to come forward from other parts of the country in the near future. Others have already gone to the police. The scandal of historical child abuse in this country will be one of the defining issues of the next five years. It is going to corrode everything during this Parliament because it is so huge and involves so many people. Just in my area, I have had people come to me. One man was kept as a slave, forced to work in a foundry, aged 11 to 16, and that is nice compared to what happened to the rest of his family. I have 26 victims of child abuse just in my constituency who have been to see me—and who am I for them to come to? That is how big this scandal across the country is.
The last Government were right to set up the Goddard inquiry. I have tabled an early-day motion—for those who do not know, an early-day motion is usually a bit of nonsense we sign so we can send letters to people telling them how good we are—calling on the Government to lift the restrictions of the Official Secrets Act, because a lot of people, including former members of special branch, want to speak out to answer the basic question I pose to anyone who wants to know: why was Cyril Smith allowed to get away with prolific child abuse for so many years? But it was not just Smith. There were far more, and what was revealed in Staffordshire yesterday was just one other aspect.
My constituency is no worse than anywhere else in the country. This is nationwide and touches every aspect of society. The number of people, on top of the 26, who have been to see me who do not want the police involved, never want to go public and never actually want to say anything is phenomenal. That is how they have dealt with that childhood trauma—and it is their right to do so. A man flew back from Canada, having not visited my constituency in 30 years because of what happened to him, to spend 20 minutes in the library of my surgery, just to tell me about it, knowing nothing could be done, before flying back again. That is the impact of historical child abuse, and this Parliament is going to have to deal with it."

A selection of short clips showing the two First Great Western operated Class 150/0 diesel multiple units at work on the line between Reading and Basingstoke.
All clips were recorded on Thursday 12th February 2015.
Clip 1 - 150001 arrives at Reading West to form the 10:41 to Basingstoke.
Clip 2 (0:25) - View from inside 150001 passing 150002 at Mortimer station.

The British Rail Class 150 "Sprinter" diesel multiple-units (DMUs) were built by BREL York from 1984 to 1987. A total of 137 units were produced in three main subclasses, replacing many of the earlier first-generation "Heritage" DMUs.
At the beginning of the 1980s, British Rail (BR) had a large fleet of ageing "Heritage" DMUs built to many different designs in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Some of the more reliable types were retained and refurbished. BR decided to replace many of the non-standard or unreliable types with new second-generation units, built to modern standards. Two different types were developed; low-cost "Pacers", built using bus parts and intended for short-distance services; and "Sprinters", based on BR's Mark 3 bodyshell design, for use on longer-distance services.
In 1984, BREL built two prototype 3-car Class 150/0 units, numbered 150001 and 150002. 150001 was fitted with Cummins engines and Voith hydraulic transmission, and 150002 was fitted with Perkins (Rolls-Royce) engines and Self-Changing Gears mechanical transmission.
The design specifications of the prototypes were similar to the later production units, but they were to remain as the only Class 150s to be built as 3-car units.
The two prototype 3-car Class 150/0 units transferred from London Midland have replaced the Class 165 and 166 Turbo units currently used by First Great Western on the Reading to Basingstoke Line, which allowed the Turbo units to reinforce Thames Valley services. 150001 entered service in January 2012.

First Great Western is a British train operating company owned by FirstGroup. It provides the majority of commuter and outer-suburban services from its Central London terminus at London Paddington to West London and the Thames Valley region including Berkshire, parts of Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire along with long-distance inter-city services via the Great Western Main Line to South West England and South Wales.
First Great Western uses its large fleet of 58 HST "InterCity 125" sets (seven or eight Mk III coaches between two Class 43 locomotives) to operate most long-distance services.
The Class 165 "Thames Turbo" is a two- or three-coach DMU used on shorter-distance services in the Thames Valley area. They are based at Reading Traction Maintenance Depot. All Class 165 units have received First Great Western Neon Dynamic Lines livery.

Lord Pearson of Rannock, who could be described as the custodian leader of UKIP since the resignation of Nigel Farage at short notice (in order to contest The Speaker of The House of Commons in Buckinghamshire), negotiates the obstacle course laid out for him by Andrew Neil in what can only really be considered a hostile interview.
The recently elected leader of The UK Independence Party is forced to justify his reluctant bid for, and resultant leadership of the party in light it's being a perceived conflict (by Mr. Neil at least) with his sitting in The House of Lords, to which he was appointed by Margaret (now Baroness) Thatcher.
Lord Rannoch attemps to dispell what he sees as "the economic myths" of leaving the European Union and puts forward his view of the likely impacts upon trade, commerce, freedom of movement, healthcare and immigration; using Switzerland as an example he tries to illustrate the likely reciprocal, bilateral agreements that would be made between the EU and UK in the event of our withdrawal after a no vote at a referendum.
Lord P elaborates on the party's plan not to contest affirmed eurosceptic candidates from other parties but rather, in a somewhat radical manner, to campaign on their behalf in their Constituencies. He also explains why UKIP believes that a hung Parliament would benefit the party and it's cause.
Whatever your political persuation, I'm sure you will leave this with the impression that Lord P is a genuine, cordial and measured man; if perhaps a reluctant politician.

Sons of Libertas talk with Nigel Farage, MEP...
We spoke with Nigel Farage at an event from the Junge Alternative NRW in the Maritim Hotel in Cologne.
Nigel Paul Farage is a British politician and leader of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) since 2010, a position he also held from September 2006 to November 2009. Since 1999, he has been a Member of the European Parliament for South East England and co-chairs the Europe of Freedom and Democracy group.
Farage was a founding member of UKIP, having left the Conservative Party in 1992 after the signing of the Maastricht Treaty. Having unsuccessfully campaigned in European and Westminster parliamentary elections for UKIP since 1994, he won a seat as MEP for South East England in the 1999 European Parliament Election -- the first year the regional list system was used -- and was re-elected in 2004 and 2009.
In September 2006, Farage became the UKIP Leader and led the party through the 2009 European Parliament Election when it received the second highest share of the popular vote, defeating Labour and the Liberal Democrats with over two million votes. He stepped down in November 2009 to concentrate on contesting the Buckingham seat of the Speaker, John Bercow, at the 2010 general election. Farage failed to unseat Bercow, receiving the third highest share of the vote in the constituency.
In November 2010, Farage successfully stood in the 2010 UKIP leadership contest, following the resignation of its leader, Lord Pearson of Rannoch. Farage was also ranked 41st in The Daily Telegraph's Top 100 most influential right-wingers poll in October 2009, citing his media savvy and his success with UKIP in the European Elections. Farage was ranked 58th in the 2010 list compiled by Iain Dale and Brian Brivati for The Daily Telegraph. In the same list published in 2012, Farage was ranked 17th and in 2013 was ranked 2nd behind the Prime Minister.
Farage has been noted for his passionate and sometimes controversial speeches in the European Parliament and has strongly criticised the euro and its related single currency project.

British Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservatives are on course to win the most seats in parliament but will be just shy of an outright majority, an exit poll showed on Thursday after voting closed in a national election. The poll put the Conservatives on 316 seats and the opposition Labour Party on 239. The Scottish National Party (SNP) is set to win 58 seats and the centrist Liberal Democrats 10 seats in the 650-seat Westminster parliament, according to the poll, released by national broadcasters. The combined total of 326 for the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, who have governed in coalition since 2010, indicated that Cameron should be able to stay in office.

STORYLINE
Britain will hold a national election May 6, Prime Minister Gordon Brown announced on Tuesday. The bitterly contested race will be dominated by a recession-wracked economy and a sense that 13 years of Labour rule may be coming to an end.
Brown met with Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace to ask her to dissolve Parliament, marking the start of the general election campaign. Parliament will shut down next Monday after concluding business.
After the announcement of the election date, the leaders of the three main party all set out on the campaign trial.
Brown greeted passengers enthusiastically at London''s St. Pancras station, before taking a train to Kent where he met employees of a supermarket chain.
Brown, who has never won a national election as leader of his party, has a difficult task ahead, with Labour Party trailing in opinion polls and Britain''s economy still fragile after the worst recession in decades.
Britain''s opposition Conservatives - the party of former Prime Ministers Margaret Thatcher and Winston Churchill - hope to win a national election for the first time since 1992.
Brown''s Labour Party is as much as 10 points behind the Conservatives and their articulate leader David Cameron in some opinion polls, but an unusual electoral map means the outcome of the election is still uncertain.
Cameron headed north on Tuesday, to meet patients and staff at Birmingham''s Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
The 43-year-old Cameron has sought to replace his party''s fusty, right-wing image with a more modern brand of "compassionate Conservatism," and drawn more women and ethnic minorities to a party long dominated by affluent white men like himself.
His party has pledged to reverse Labour''s planned hike to national insurance, a payroll tax, and implement major spending cuts this year. Labour says major cuts should be deferred until 2011 to give the economy more time to recover.
While Britain''s political scene is dominated by Labour and the Conservatives, several smaller groups are likely to win seats they could then use as bargaining chips in coalition talks.
The centrist Liberal Democrats, the country''s third largest party, are seen as potentially vital dealmakers if no one party emerges with a clear mandate. Its leader, Nick Clegg, on Tuesday presented his party as one of change, pledging to take the country in a new direction.
Clegg was campaigning at a school in Watford on Thursday.
Because of the quirks of Britain''s electoral system, the Conservatives will need a significant margin to ensure a majority of House of Commons seats and oust Brown.

More detail:
Historical context
AV for the House of Commons has been debated in Parliament many times since 1917. Both the Liberals and Labour have supported the change at one time or another.
In 1950 all constituencies became single-member and all votes non-transferable. From then until 2010, the Labour and Conservative parties always voted down proposals for moving away from this system for the Commons, which came to be known as 'First Past the Post'. Other voting systems were introduced for various other British elections. STV was re-introduced in Northern Ireland and list-PR introduced for European elections except in Northern Ireland.
While out of power, the Labour party set up a working group to examine electoral reform. The resulting Plant commission reported in 1993 and recommended the adoption of the supplementary vote, the system used to elect the London Mayor, for the Commons. Labour's 1997 manifesto committed the party to a referendum on the voting system for the Commons and to setting up an independent commission to recommend a proportional alternative to FPTP to be put in that referendum.
After winning the 1997 General Election, the new Labour government set up the Jenkins Commission, which was supported by the Liberal Democrats. The commission proposed AV+ system and rejected both first past the post and alternative vote.
However, legislation for a referendum was not put forward. Proportional systems were introduced for the new Scottish Parliament and Welsh and London Assemblies, and supplementary vote was introduced for mayoral elections. With House of Lords reform in 1999, AV was introduced to elect replacements for the remaining 92 hereditary peers who sit in the Lords.
At the General Election in 2001, the Labour manifesto stated they would review the experience of the new systems and the Jenkins report to assess the possibility of changes to the Commons. However, reform remained at a standstill.
Pre-election
In February 2010, the Labour Government used their majority to pass an amendment to their Constitutional Reform Bill to include a referendum on the introduction of AV to be held in the next Parliament, saying they wanted to restore trust in Parliament in the wake of the 2009 expenses scandal. A Liberal Democrat amendment to hold the referendum earlier, and on STV, was defeated. There wasn't enough time in Parliament between 2005-2010 for the Bill to become a law so the move was dismissed.
In the 2010 general election campaign, the Labour manifesto supported the introduction of AV via a referendum, to "ensure that every MP is supported by the majority of their constituents voting at each election". The Liberal Democrats argued for proportional representation, preferably single transferable vote, and the Conservatives argued for the retention of FPTP. Both the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats proposed reducing the number of MPs, while the Conservative Party argued for more equal sized constituencies.

The following travel video is a comprehensive list of the best 35 Things to do in Chicago including all of the top Attractions worth visiting and seeing in this complete travel guide for the Windy City.
Many people don't realize this but Chicago is a world class city with festivals, arts, entertainment, dining and architecture that can rival any city in North America or even Europe. The only other city that I think can compare with Chicago - in terms of attractions - in America is New York. Whether you're scarfing down Chicago style deep dish pizza or taking in a Blues festival you'll find no shortage of things to do in the city. If you're a sport fan there are no shortage of professional teams to follow at any time of the year including the Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Chicago Bears and the Chicago Bulls. When you're thinking of destination to travel to in the United States, Chicago should be near the top of your list. I guarantee that you'll have a lot of fun:
1) Chicago Architecture and Chicago River Walk
2) Chicago River Boat Trip
3) Kayaking along the Chicago River
4) Cloud Gate - The Bean
5) Millennium Park
6) Pavilion 'Free Shows'
7) Art Institute of Chicago
8) Watch a Chicago Cubs game at Wrigley Field
9) Eat Deep Dish Pizza
10) Visit the sky deck at Willis Tower (formerly Sears Tower)
11) Stroll around the University of Chicago campus
12) Check out the Oriental Institute of History
13) Marvel and escape the bustle at Osaka Garden
14) Enjoy an afternoon or evening at Wicker Park
15) Relax and escape at Humboldt Park
16) Check out the Dinosaur exhibits at the Chicago Field Museum
17) Visit the Shedd Aquarium - the largest indoor one in the world
18) Watch a Chicago Blackhawks game at the United Center
19) Check out the 'Borders' exhibit at Solti Gardens of Grant Park
20) Admire Buckingham Fountain during the day or at night
21) View the Chicago skyline from the Hancock Center
22) Spend an afternoon having fun at Navy Pier
23) Wander around Lincoln Park Zoo and Conservatory
24) Work out or get a tan at North Avenue Beach
25) Laugh your head off watching improv at The Second City
26) Test your mind playing the Zombie Game
27) Go shopping or people watching along the Magnificent Mile
28) Take the Chicago 'El or 'L' CTA metro system
29) Watch an NFL football game (Chicago Bears) at Soldier Field
30) Check out the entirely free Money Museum
31) Ride a bicycle in downtown Chicago
32) Spend time at the Museum of Science and Technology
33) Marvel at the architectural wonder known as Robbie House
34) Rest your legs by taking a Chicago city tour by Segway
35) Check out a performance at Chicago Theatre
We got to see buildings like Marina City, Trump Tower, and Wrigley Building. Architecture river tours are a fun way to take in the sights along the river. If you find yourself here during the summer months kayaking is a popular way to experience the Chicago River. The Crown Fountain is a cool interactive sculpture located in Millennium Park. Art lovers will enjoy the Art Institute of Chicago. Taking in a Chicago Cubs baseball game at Wrigley field is a must for anyone who visits the city. You can't come to Chicago and not eat deep-dish pizza! During our week here we ate at many pizzerias in town including Lou Malnati's, Giordano's, Gino's East Side, and Pizzeria Uno. Formerly known as the Sears Tower, Willis Tower is now the 2nd tallest building in the United States. Many of the buildings at the University of Chicago were designed in the Gothic style. The campus is also home to the Oriental Institute. The Osaka Garden is located in Jackson Park
which is in Chicago's South Side. If you visit Wicker Park you'll find it has a very hipster feel, with lots of street art down every alley. Humboldt Park is a little far removed from the downtown area so it's not as popular with visitors, however, it's a really great place to soak in nature. For a chance to come face to face with dinosaurs, head over to the Field Museum. Right next door is the Shedd Aquarium which is a popular attraction for families. Visit the John Hancock Center by night as the city really dazzles from the 94th floor. The Navy Pier is a fun place to visit on a weekend including a Ferris Wheel. Located in the north end of the city, North Avenue Beach is a popular hangout spot with beach-goers. For improv comedy there's no better place than The Second City.

wn.com/35 Things To Do In Chicago | Top Attractions Travel Guide
The following travel video is a comprehensive list of the best 35 Things to do in Chicago including all of the top Attractions worth visiting and seeing in this complete travel guide for the Windy City.
Many people don't realize this but Chicago is a world class city with festivals, arts, entertainment, dining and architecture that can rival any city in North America or even Europe. The only other city that I think can compare with Chicago - in terms of attractions - in America is New York. Whether you're scarfing down Chicago style deep dish pizza or taking in a Blues festival you'll find no shortage of things to do in the city. If you're a sport fan there are no shortage of professional teams to follow at any time of the year including the Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Chicago Bears and the Chicago Bulls. When you're thinking of destination to travel to in the United States, Chicago should be near the top of your list. I guarantee that you'll have a lot of fun:
1) Chicago Architecture and Chicago River Walk
2) Chicago River Boat Trip
3) Kayaking along the Chicago River
4) Cloud Gate - The Bean
5) Millennium Park
6) Pavilion 'Free Shows'
7) Art Institute of Chicago
8) Watch a Chicago Cubs game at Wrigley Field
9) Eat Deep Dish Pizza
10) Visit the sky deck at Willis Tower (formerly Sears Tower)
11) Stroll around the University of Chicago campus
12) Check out the Oriental Institute of History
13) Marvel and escape the bustle at Osaka Garden
14) Enjoy an afternoon or evening at Wicker Park
15) Relax and escape at Humboldt Park
16) Check out the Dinosaur exhibits at the Chicago Field Museum
17) Visit the Shedd Aquarium - the largest indoor one in the world
18) Watch a Chicago Blackhawks game at the United Center
19) Check out the 'Borders' exhibit at Solti Gardens of Grant Park
20) Admire Buckingham Fountain during the day or at night
21) View the Chicago skyline from the Hancock Center
22) Spend an afternoon having fun at Navy Pier
23) Wander around Lincoln Park Zoo and Conservatory
24) Work out or get a tan at North Avenue Beach
25) Laugh your head off watching improv at The Second City
26) Test your mind playing the Zombie Game
27) Go shopping or people watching along the Magnificent Mile
28) Take the Chicago 'El or 'L' CTA metro system
29) Watch an NFL football game (Chicago Bears) at Soldier Field
30) Check out the entirely free Money Museum
31) Ride a bicycle in downtown Chicago
32) Spend time at the Museum of Science and Technology
33) Marvel at the architectural wonder known as Robbie House
34) Rest your legs by taking a Chicago city tour by Segway
35) Check out a performance at Chicago Theatre
We got to see buildings like Marina City, Trump Tower, and Wrigley Building. Architecture river tours are a fun way to take in the sights along the river. If you find yourself here during the summer months kayaking is a popular way to experience the Chicago River. The Crown Fountain is a cool interactive sculpture located in Millennium Park. Art lovers will enjoy the Art Institute of Chicago. Taking in a Chicago Cubs baseball game at Wrigley field is a must for anyone who visits the city. You can't come to Chicago and not eat deep-dish pizza! During our week here we ate at many pizzerias in town including Lou Malnati's, Giordano's, Gino's East Side, and Pizzeria Uno. Formerly known as the Sears Tower, Willis Tower is now the 2nd tallest building in the United States. Many of the buildings at the University of Chicago were designed in the Gothic style. The campus is also home to the Oriental Institute. The Osaka Garden is located in Jackson Park
which is in Chicago's South Side. If you visit Wicker Park you'll find it has a very hipster feel, with lots of street art down every alley. Humboldt Park is a little far removed from the downtown area so it's not as popular with visitors, however, it's a really great place to soak in nature. For a chance to come face to face with dinosaurs, head over to the Field Museum. Right next door is the Shedd Aquarium which is a popular attraction for families. Visit the John Hancock Center by night as the city really dazzles from the 94th floor. The Navy Pier is a fun place to visit on a weekend including a Ferris Wheel. Located in the north end of the city, North Avenue Beach is a popular hangout spot with beach-goers. For improv comedy there's no better place than The Second City. The Magnificent Mile is a shopper's paradise. The Chicago L, or the elevated line, is great for getting around town. A week pass is $28. The Divvy is Chicago's bike sharing system.

50 Things to do in London Travel Guide | Top Attractions London City Guide Transcript:
So Hello from London! Time for a new destination. This is a city that I haven't visited in almost 4 years and it is actually Sam's very first time here. So we're both very excited to be in London. And we're going to be making a little video guide. Actually a really big video guide because we plan on showing you 50 different things to do around London. So let's get started.
Our first stop was Trafalgar Square. This square leads to a lot of central attractions, so it's a nice place to people watch, get your bearings, and plan out where you want to go in the city.
The London Eye is a giant Ferris wheel on the South Bank of the Thames. It offers a bird's eye view of the city - just make sure you don't go on a foggy day.
Buckingham Palace has served as the official London residence for Britain's sovereigns since 1837. The State Rooms at Buckingham Palace are open to visitors every year, however, that's something that you need to plan months in advance.
The Palace of Westminster, also known as the Houses of Parliament, is the meeting place of the House of Commons and the House of Lords. The Palace along with Big Ben are two of the top London attractions that dot the city-scape.
The Tower of London sits on the north bank of the River Thames. Though this castle served many purposes, it's mainly remembered for its use as a prison in the 16th and 17th centuries.
And that's a wrap for London! Like with any mega city, it's impossible to cover all the sights and attractions you can enjoy here, but hopefully this video will give you an idea of what London has to offer. As always, if you have any other suggestions of things to do in London that you'd like to share with other travellers, feel free to include those in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in England series. We're making a series of videos showcasing English culture, English arts, English foods, English religion, English cuisine and English people.

A trip to London might as well be a trip through history. This city has long been a hub for finance, education, and culture, and is full of modern construction mixed with ancient buildings.
Your London tour must include St. Paul’s Cathedral, one of its most well-known churches. You’ll also want to see the Tower of London, the Palace of Westminster, and Westminster Abbey for exquisite examples of the city’s famous architectural landmarks. Walk or jog through numerous green spaces, among them Hyde Park and Green Park, in the center of London.
Continue your London sightseeing in the West End, where you’ll find ancient buildings converted into modern shops, restaurants, bars, and shows. You’ll find one of the largest theatre districts in the world here, and can take in a different play almost every night of the week.
For a real treat, climb aboard the London Eye, a giant, rotating Ferris wheel, and see the old and new parts of the city all at once.

Travel video about destination London in England.
London is an exciting and pulsating metropolis of the new millennium, a melting pot of both people and culture and a fascinating city of diverse contrasts.
The City Of London contains the Tower, an historic landmark with a remarkable history. A mighty medieval fortress with 13 towers that throughout its 900 years, has served many functions and from the Middle Ages, it was a heavily fortified prison.
After the medieval St. Paul's Cathedral was destroyed by a devastating fire in 1666, Christopher Wren was ordered to re-build it with a dome. During the 36 years of its construction, its design was frequently altered until finally a wonderful masterpiece of church architecture was created.
The Monument is the city's tallest freestanding stone column and a reminder of the Great Fire of London that destroyed 80 percent of the city. In four days, more than 13,000 buildings were destroyed and the Monument was built on the site of the bakery in which the fire began.
Since the reign of Queen Victoria, Buckingham Palace has served as London's royal residence. A garden of mulberry trees once grew on the site of today's palace and the Duke of Buckingham subsequently added a simple brick built residence. Around 60 years later, George II purchased the site for his wife and George IV eventually began to design an extensive palace complex.
The highlight of any holiday in London must be the largest Ferris wheel in the world, the London Eye. Situated on the banks of the Thames, it rises high into the sky, opposite the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben.
The former centre of the largest empire in the world, London is still a city of superlatives that attracts millions of visitors each year. Exciting both day and night, London is a modern city with age old traditions and a long and colorful history.

Buckingham Palace (UK /ˈbʌkɪŋəm/ /ˈpælɪs/[1][2]) is the London residence and principal workplace of the monarchy of the United Kingdom.[3] Located in the City of Westminster, the palace is often at the centre of state occasions and royal hospitality. It has been a focus for the British people at times of national rejoicing.
Originally known as Buckingham House, the building which forms the core of today's palace was a large townhouse built for the Duke of Buckingham in 1703 on a site which had been in private ownership for at least 150 years. It was subsequently acquired by King George III in 1761[4] as a private residence for Queen Charlotte and was known as "The Queen's House". During the 19th century it was enlarged, principally by architects John Nash and Edward Blore, who formed three wings around a central courtyard. Buckingham Palace finally became the official royal palace of the British monarch on the accession of Queen Victoria in 1837. More info visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckingham_Palace

Saint James Park is the ideal place for some peace and quiet,
away from the hustle and bustle of London's busy streets. Located between Buckingham Palace, The Mall
and St James Palace, this is the oldest of the eight Royal Parks in London, which makes it even more of a unique and enjoyable attraction. Lay out the blanket, and get those sandwiches out to have a picnic in this haven of greenery. If you're attending during the months between April-September, you can sit on one of the deckchairs and if with children, let them play in the children's playground!

Travel video about destination Stockholm in Sweden.
Stockholm is a city that floats on water, the 'Venice of the North' was built on 14 islands.
Gamla Stan, or 'Old Town', is the name of the city's three central islands that are linked by numerous bridges. Its ambience is that of the Middle Ages and small and mysterious alleys and beautiful buildings that date back to the 7th century characterize the life of the traders who once lived there.
The old town's most dominant building is the royal castle of Kungliga Slottet. Larger than London's Buckingham Palace, it contains 608 rooms.
The Stadshuset is one of the city's landmarks and was designed in Medieval style eith a tower that is almost 106 metres tall. The most important artists of the time were engaged in the creation of the Blue Hall in which the Noble Prize ceremony now takes place each year.
Those who appreciate museums will not be disappointed by Stockholm as it boasts more than 50! The National Museum, located on the Strömmen Canal, contains countless works of art. Due to the passion for art of various Swedish royal families and also generous public donations, the museum has a truly outstanding collection of French paintings that date back to the 18th century.
Six kilometres south of Stockholm is a cemetery that has been designated as a World Heritage Site by Unesco, the Skogskyrkogarden, the final resting place for many of Stockholm's past inhabitants and also some of its most famous, including Greta Garbo. This extraordinary complex took 30 years to build and is unique in the world.
Since 1998, this centuries-old Hanse city has also been the cultural capital of Europe. This city of the Vikings is a true architectural gem!

Be led to royalty by walking through The Mall. This long, tree-lined road leads from Trafalgar Square to Buckingham Palace. But this is not just 'ANY' road. Regardless of the weather, this wide, beautiful route is boarded with parks and often decorated with Union Jack flags. The red surface apparently represents a red carpet running up to Buckingham Palace - yes, this is the Queen's front drive, after all! Keep in mind that the Mall is closed to traffic on certain days, including Sundays and public holidays.

http://www.expedia.com/St-James-Park-London.d507736.Vacation-Attraction
Are you ready for some charm and tranquility during your whirlwind London tour? Then step into St. James Park and leave the hustle and bustle of the big city behind you.
This delightful public area was once the royal family’s private hunting ground, and it is now 58 acres of winding paths, ponds, and forest area. A St. James Park tour must include a stroll down the Mall, which connects the park to Buckingham Palace and the Admiralty Arch. The Arch, which is actually three arches contained in one imposing structure, was completed in 1912 in memory of Queen Victoria. From that point, you can walk directly to Trafalgar Square, which is also full of historic monuments and structures.
You’re bound to get hungry or thirsty during your St. James Park sightseeing, so make sure you purchase a snack or beverage at one of the many stands and kiosks throughout the park. Don’t forget to stop at the Horse Guards Parade, where you can find several beautiful memorials. If you’re lucky, you may even witness one of the elaborate military ceremonies that occur here.
A stroll through St. James Park is your chance for a quiet afternoon spent in a serene setting. During the summer, it’s the perfect place to stretch out on a grassy hill and catch some rays. Just remember to pack sunscreen!
How will you spend your time in St. James Park?
