Yesterday in Westminster, Parmjit Singh Gill, Member of Parliament for Leicester South, met with Fairtrade Cocoa farmers from Western Ghana. The farmers are currently touring different venues in London as part of the national Fairtrade Fortnight 2005 (1st-13th March). The theme of this years fortnight is 'Check Out Fairtrade' which aims to make a direct link between cocoa growers and UK chocolate lovers, and give a compelling reason to switch to Fairtrade products in supermarkets and food stores.
Commenting on the reports that the US has proposed a 45 day delay in any decision by the United Nations on Darfur, Parmjit Singh Gill, Member of Parliament for Leicester South, said:
Space is no longer science fiction – it underpins our economy, security, and daily lives. Our new policy will renew the National Space Strategy, support UK spaceports and hubs, and designate space as a strategic industry.
The UK’s asylum system is failing, leaving people fleeing conflict stuck in temporary housing, unable to work, and separated from their loved ones. Our new policy gives practical solutions to clear up the broken system left by the Conservatives.
The Online Safety Act was meant to protect people, yet its flawed implementation risks undermining privacy, free expression, and secure communication. Our new policy addresses our concerns and fights for a digital future where rights are protected.
