No members day again tomorrow
Parliament is going into urgency because it has some bills to pass. In other words for no particular reason but convenience. Not everyone is happy about it, because the bills that are being looked at are not of an urgent nature. As a result there will be no members day tomorrow, again and two fewer bills to deal with,.If they put parliament in to urgency after members day that wouldn't suit because then the members wouldnt have a weekend.
But sacrificing members day so often hardly sounds like democracy in action. But most people wont care - they've never heard of members day.
