Wednesday, 25 March 2020 08:22

There is a motion on today's Order Paper that Parliament should shut down at the close of business tonight and not return until the 21st of April, which is the scheduled return date after the Easter recess. In simple terms, anything scheduled to take place between tomorrow and March 31 (Commons) and April 1 (Lords) will not now happen. Parliament Today will continue to operate and will still supply news as it happens over this period....Request free trial
