I attended the Private Member’s Bill Ballot, an old tradition where Members of Parliament enter a ballot to have their name drawn in order to bring our own Private Member’s Bill to a Second Reading in Parliament. You can learn more about Private Member’s Bills and the way they work here: https://www.parliament.uk/.../laws/bills/private-members/
Sadly, my number was not drawn this time but it will not deter me from continuing my mission to make the Shared Parental Leave (Bereavement) Bill, more commonly known as ‘Tim’s Law’ a reality. My speech on Tim’s Law can be watched here: https://youtu.be/yVKiTuWKIjo?si=q7EYgEZJMeOIFKW0
