Berwick Advertiser's 200 years of service marked by MPs

June 10, 2008 10:00 AM

A motion congratulating the Berwick Advertiser on its 200 years of service as a local newspaper has been tabled by Berwick Liberal Democrat MP, Alan Beith, with support from neighbouring Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk Liberal Democrat MP, Michael Moore.

The motion says:

"That this House congratulates the Berwick Advertiser on its 200th Anniversary of service as a local newspaper for the Berwick area; further recognises the contribution of the Tweeddale Press newspapers to the life of communities throughout North Northumberland and the Borders; and draws attention to the vital role of local weekly newspapers and their on-line services at a time when many national media trivialise or ignore the democratic process."

    If you are a resident of the Berwick-upon-Tweed constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
