Show more »"The Minister has stated that the country needs a significant uplift in STEM qualified graduates and young researchers if it is to remain economically competitive. The US has recently increased funding substantially in this area and is already attracting such people. At the same time UK's research councils are struggling from fEC underfunding and in the case of STFC are cutting funds for young post-doctoral researchers by 25%. Will DIUS follow the lead of the US and provide the funding to increase the number of young researchers or should these researchers and their Professors move now to the USA ?" Show less »

Show more »"Does the Minister agree with the Wakeham Review conclusions about the exceptional standing of UK research in particle physics and astronomy, its inspirational value in attracting students to read physics and related degrees at University, and the role of these disciplines in posing extreme technical challenges that can drive major technology breakthroughs? Given the strategy on science being followed in the US, should the UK not be increasing its support for such subjects, rather than imposing severe cuts which will only drive the brightest and best to seek better opportunities across the Atlantic?

                 I have admired your intellect whenever i have heard you speak. i have noted large donations  from city financiers and rich idividuals to MP's over the last 4 years  all registered quite properly.In business i was not allowed presents etc and had to sign a conflict of interest agreement to prevent outside interests affecting my decisions.Yet in parliament the mother of democracy i see very large sums being given and this appears to be acceptable.If one of these MP's becomes part of  government would i be naive in thinking these donations may be remembered.Even if they are declared and whether declared or not influence the individual and party who recieves them.This to me leaves our democratic parliament somewhat open to rich people influencing government policy whoever is in power.

                                                    Yours Faithfully
