WHY all the criticism of the suspension of Parliament?
Do people not realise that Parliament will be just as effective while it’s shut down, as it has been for the last three years – it has effectively been dormant.
In fact, we in the North-East may benefit from the shutdown, because there won’t be any more misery inflicted on us for a while!
