Sun 7th Sep 2008

"I have learned a great deal from this visit," said Steve Webb MP for Northavon. "Everything possible must be done to prevent a repeat of last year's flooding in the East Riding.

Quote of the Week

"This is our moment. This is our time - to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth - that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: Yes We Can."

Barack Obama, the next President of the USA

Acceptance speech - 5 November 2008
