Brandon Lewis MP is seeking a constituency assistant for his constituency office in Great Yarmouth. Although previous office or casework experience would be beneficial it is not essential. More important are strong organisational skills and the flexibility to work in a busy office environment.

A huge congratulations to Boris Johnson on becoming Leader of the Conservative Party and from Wednesday afternoon Prime Minister.

Constituents often ask me what a typical day is like for a Member of Parliament. There is no typical day; I soon found that out when I first went to Westminster after my election in 2010. Every day is different and brings new challenges.

Many things discussed and voted upon in Parliament are changes to existing laws. Some of these can be quite detailed technical changes that go unnoticed by the media.

Children and young people in Great Yarmouth are to benefit from additional mental health support. 

Transport issues are dominating my local agenda, and I recently highlighted these at the very heart of Westminster. With the Government set to decide its priorities for future roads investment, MPs are lobbying transport ministers to fund projects in Norfolk, and across East Anglia.

One of the joys and privileges of being Chairman of the Conservative Party is meeting so many activists, councillors and volunteers across the country. Last summer the Young Conservatives, an essential and vital part of the Conservative family, was reformed and relaunched.

It's fantastic news that Great Yarmouth Borough Council have been successful in securing funding from the Future High Streets Fund. 

Most people don't associate the Great Yarmouth constituency with farming. During a visit to the Royal Norfolk Show, Brandon explains why it is important to the agricultural sector. Did you know the blackcurrants used to make Ribena come from a farm in the constituency? 

We celebrated Armed Forces Day this week by saying thank you to all those working in our Armed Forces and crucial defence jobs across the East of England.
