    Re: The Speaker's Chamber
    Evening MPs,

    Message to all
    I just want to start this update with an appeal to you all. As you know, this Friday, the referendum on the Monarchy will be posted and hopefully this will mean lots of outsiders will pay a visit to our forum. I would love it if there were loads of bills and motions for them to read and potentially debate, so can I make a special appeal for bills and motions to be submitted this week, so that we look like a busy and interesting forum! I know that a lot of you have exams, so I understand that you're all busy, but if you do have any spare time to polish up some bills lying around in your sub-forum, or knock out a motion quicker than you can knock out a... ahem. Well, the MHoC would certainly appreciate it and if things get busy this week in particular, we could be reaping the benefits for some time to come!

    Tonight, there is a new(ish) bill, a second reading and two votes, plus Prime Ministers Questions.

    Have a good one,

    - Nick
