St Albans MP Daisy Cooper: What children need now is action

Jan 17, 2025 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

Children’s safety is one of those issues where politicians normally put politics to one side and work together to make better laws. So when the government introduced the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill, it was appalling to see political games dominate the debate. The Bill is quite broad ranging, covering things like employment of children, school breakfast clubs and uniforms, teacher misconduct, and children in care. But it grabbed attention because of children suffering in the worst ways.
Amyl and the Sniffers vs. the curse of the 3rd album

Dec 5, 2024 | varsity.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

“You’re a dumb c*nt, you’re an asshole – every time you talk you mumble”; as expectation goes, pure poetry there from lead singer Amy Taylor. Containing some of my favourite swear words, and the euphoric head rush energy of their namesake, the new album Cartoon Darkness marks the gloriously unsubtle return of the Sniffers.
Daisy Cooper MP: A family farm test should be introduced to stop tax-dodgers

Nov 29, 2024 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

Daisy Cooper, MP (Image: Daisy Cooper, MP) When you think of farmers and politics, you might picture French farmers blocking roads with burning bales of hay or driving slowly through Paris. Most wouldn’t think of Barbour jackets and wellies stomping into Parliament Square, but that’s the week we had. Normally when a government unveils its first budget, it has little explaining to do.
Daisy Cooper MP: No more bonuses for water bosses until sewage dumping stops

Markyate water treatment plant (Image: Daisy Cooper, MP) If there’s one issue that has united our nation in universal condemnation, it is the dumping of raw sewage into our rivers, chalk streams and seas. Under the Conservatives, this environmental catastrophe was left to fester. Now the Labour government has brought forward a Water Bill with the aim of tackling the issue - but in truth it's only a job half done.
Daisy Cooper: What does Labour's shake-up of the planning system mean for St Albans?

Aug 9, 2024 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

Daisy Cooper (Image: Daisy Cooper) The final day of the Parliamentary term is normally known as ‘Take out the Trash Day’ on account of the government trying to sneak out bad news via the government website in the hope no-one notices. Not this year. Instead, the Labour Government made a major announcement: a shake-up of the planning system, including a rapid eight-week, 69-page consultation on the National Planning Policy Framework.
Daisy Cooper MP: Let's hope Parliament can deliver for the British people

Jul 26, 2024 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

The Kings Speech (Image: St Albans Liberal Democrats) New and returning members of Parliament gathered to hear the King’s Speech: a speech written by the government but delivered by the monarch, and which outlines all the proposed new laws which this Parliamentary session will debate. It was an unfamiliar sight, seeing Labour MPs on the government benches and the Conservatives on those reserved for the opposition.
Daisy Cooper MP: Listening to victims of 'revenge porn' at Parliament

May 17, 2024 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

After any election campaign, it takes a while for politicians and pundits to move on from election fever. Serious and important issues can sometimes seem overlooked as focus lingers on past and future elections. The local elections have been no different. After so long in power, the Conservatives suffered a major defeat, winning fewer council seats than the Lib Dems for the first time since 1996. They also lost another parliamentary by-election and had another defection to Labour.

Daisy Cooper MP: The Rwanda bill is 'inconceivably immoral and expensive'

May 3, 2024 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

The Rwanda plan, first proposed by the Conservative government in April 2022, became law this week - but not without some eleventh-hour parliamentary drama. In this final week, the bill passed between the House of Commons and the House of Lords - back and forth, back and forth - in a process known as ‘Parliamentary ping-pong’.
Daisy Cooper: The smoking ban will stop young people taking up the habit

Apr 26, 2024 | hertsad.co.uk | Daisy Cooper

Almost all of us have an experience of smoking. Maybe you had a 'cheeky one' behind the bike sheds at school or 'smoked socially' on a night out with friends. Maybe you started young and have spent a lifetime trying to quit. Or maybe you've experienced the absolute worst: watching a loved one die from a smoking-related illness or cancer.
