Tours of Westminster

Consituency Tours

 We are able to arrange tours of Parliament for our consituents free of charge. The tours must be booked approximately a month in advance, and you will be required to provide your full address as proof of being in our consituency. To book a tour, contact us in writing, by email or by phone.

 

Gordon BrownPrime Minister's Question Time

We are able to organise tickets for our consituents to sit in the gallery during Prime Minister's Question Time at midday on Wednesdays.  However, we are only allocated four tickets per year, and these have already gone for 2008. They are obviously in very high demand and are very limited, so we regret that some of you will be disappointed.  However, you can sit in the Public Gallery of the House of Commons for any other ministers (see below) or we are happy to arrange any other tour for you.
