Sitting near the Chamber’s main doors is the Sergeant-at-Arms’, who is the guardian of the Mace and is responsible for maintaining law and order in the House and for all security at the Legislative Assembly.
Sergeant-at-Arms
The title of Sergeant is thought to have originated in Roman times, when senior officers of state chose 12 patricians to act as bodyguards; lesser officials were permitted six bodyguards. These men possessed virtually unlimited powers of arrest and were not dependent upon the warrant of any legal authority. They were answerable only to their own master, and took precedence according to his rank.
The title of Sergeant-at-Arms appears during the Crusades, when Philip II of France formed a special corps to guard him in the Holy Land in 1192. They always appeared in public encased in armor, and carried a decorated battle-mace as a weapon and as a badge of their office.
It is almost certain that the notion of ‘Sergeant’ came to England from France with the Normans.
“The Table”, the journal of Society of Clerks-at-the-Table in Commonwealth Parliaments, notes that in England people who were permanently retained by the Sovereign to perform certain services became known as Sergeants. It suggests that Sergeants-at-Arms were originally the King’s bodyguard. However, quite early on their military duties passed into other hands and it is likely that by the beginning of the 13th century they had turned into civil or police bodyguards. They were armed with clubs or maces, undoubtedly less warlike weapons than those they had originally carried.
Philip Marsden, a former Deliverer of the Vote in the British House of Commons, writes that in one of its earliest forms a Sergeant-at-Arms was a man with a large land grant from the King. He was required to perform duties concerned with the safety of the King in return for the land he held. Marsden traces the earliest record of Sergeants-at-Arms to 1278, when Edward I recruited a corps of 20 as a mounted escort which wielded almost royal authority over their fellow-citizens.
Introduction of Sergeant-at-Arms into Parliament
With roots in assemblies in Anglo-Saxon England, the concept and powers of Parliament have evolved over the centuries. By the 13th century, parliaments were becoming more representative and more frequently held. Separate entities were created in or around 1341 when Parliament split into the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
There are several theories to account for the introduction of the Sergeant-at-Arms into Parliament, and later, the House of Commons. Some are presented below.
One theory holds that the assignment of a Sergeant-at-Arms to attend upon the Commons Speaker was a scheme by the King in 1415 to extend his power over Parliament. However, Marsden argues that in the early 15th century the House of Commons was still very much a ‘‘Lower House’ in every sense of the word, and not yet enough of a power to warrant such a move. He agrees that the Sergeant-at-Arms was introduced in 1415, but at the request of the Commons in order to enforce parliamentary privilege. By virtue of the King’s insignia on his mace, he was empowered to exercise royal authority over ordinary citizens through the instructions of the Speaker. When Parliament was not sitting, he returned to duty in the Royal Household.
The Table proposes that since Parliament met where the King lived (the Palace at Westminster), it was only natural that he should have seconded two Sergeants-at-Arms to attend upon the Houses. The author of this article suggests that the function of the first parliamentary Sergeant-at-Arms was that of a door-keeper, as mentioned in a pamphlet written about 1322.
I.T.P. Hughes, a former British Sergeant-at-Arms, proposes the Sergeant-at-Arms was appointed to protect the Speaker. The demands placed on the Speaker by his master, the Commons, often conflicted with the demands placed on the Speaker by the King, who had appointed him. Violent disagreement was often the result. Richard II, therefore, appointed a Sergeant-at-Arms to attend upon the Speaker about 1391.
The position of Sergeant-at-Arms was obviously introduced during a critical stage in the evolution of Parliament. The House of Lords and the House of Commons were both trying to consolidate their powers at a time of great confusion over roles, authority and privilege. It is not surprising then that disagreement exists surrounding the Sergeant-at-Arms’ precise date and purpose of introduction.
Role of Sergeant-at-Arms in Parliament
The maintenance of law and order, and the execution of warrants were the earliest functions of the Sergeant-at-Arms. Because he attended the Speaker, he was involved in all ceremonial functions connected with that office. He was also charged with keeping the doors and making sure that the Commons was clean.
Marsden writes that from very early in his history, the Sergeant-at-Arms was the Commons’ Usher, Keeper of the Doors, and Housekeeper. As the public became more aware of the activities of Parliament and began to attend sittings, someone was needed to maintain order.
The 16th century witnessed a shift in the authority of the position. Until then, it had come from the Sovereign, through the Speaker. Henry VIII now delegated the wielding of the Sergeant’s authority to the House of Commons.
In 1572, John Hooker, an MP, described the functions of the Sergeant-at-Arms in Order and usage of the keeping of a Parlement in England. They included keeping out strangers, keeping prisoners, delivering messages, attending the Speaker, and keeping the House clean.
Interference with the liberty of Members occurred from time to time and was always punished. Breaches of privilege in the 17th century included jostling against a Member, taking his cloak or bolting with his coach. The Sergeant would be sent to arrest transgressors.
By the 17th century, the Sergeant’s department was fairly well established and consisted of the Vote Office (which was primarily concerned with the distribution of the journals of the day to Members), the Deputy Housekeeper, two door-keepers, four messengers and various watchmen and firelighters.
Contemporary Responsibilities
More than half a millennium after its introduction into the parliamentary system, the office of Sergeant-at-Arms continues to serve legislatures that adhere to British tradition. A sense of the position’s medieval origins persists, particularly in its ceremonial role in parliamentary proceedings. Over time and in many jurisdictions, maintaining order in the Chamber and housekeeping duties have evolved into responsibility for security beyond the walls of the Chamber and property management functions.

300 Students and workers march through Birmingham City Centre and 60 occupy the council chambers at Birmingham City Council for over 4 hours. Remaining protesters maintained a public protest outside the building to ensure the action was visible to a busy market square. Protests remained peaceful throughout the day.
The action in Birmingham today took place against a back from of what was the 3rd national day of action by students. It was a day of revolt—across Britain, from Dundee to Bournemouth, young people rose up against the attacks on education. The protest named X2 following day X on the 24th November and the 50, 000 NUS/UCU protest on the 10th of November.
These protests are a revolt against £9,000 university fees, the closing off of universities to all but the rich, and the abolition of the EMA allowance that 16-18 year olds rely on to go to college. But it was also about the way the Tories are ripping up people’s futures.
From the beginning of the occupations messages of solidarity flooded in from trade union representatives all over the city representing some of the most vulnerable members of the public and public sector workers under attack from the cuts including UNISON, PCS and UCU unions.
These included support workers, council workers and civil servants, support staff, teachers and lecturers in education, Connexions youth workers faced with job cuts and cuts to the services for the most vulnerable young people in Birmingham. Refugees and migrant workers will see a massive cut in legal aid, what little there is between what can mean life and death for those that are already exploited and degraded in the most appalling ways.
A statement from PCS Union representing over 300,000 civil servants said “Student protests against the attacks on education are inspirational to the rest of us. This is part of a concerted attack by this government to take away people’s rights to education, work, welfare, healthcare, housing and more. The question ultimately is: who pays for the crisis? It is clear that students should not pay for it, and it’s clear the public sector workers shouldn’t either. We should be unified in demanding that those who cause the crisis should pay for it. Keep up the fight, we can win.”
The student action was providing them inspiration and hope that there is an alternative to the CON-DEM cuts which would wreck the lives of millions.
Day X2 and day X has showed that the angry march and the occupation of Tory headquarters on 10 November was not a one-off event and there were as many if not more people involved each time.
Tens of thousands of students, especially school students, took to the streets. These school students know universities are being closed off to them by soaring fees. They know the cuts mean that only a few will get more than low-paid jobs.

Saltburn by the Sea has maintained much of its original charm as a Victorian seaside resort including this pier, together with the colourful Italian Gardens and walks through Riftswood. Saltburn has the oldest water balanced cliff tramway in Britain that is still in operation, linking the town with the pier 120 feet below. You can park at sea level where the old fishing village straddles Skelton Beck.
This was taken on a rather cold, blustery and very changeable day weather wise, but I didn't have a big stopper then so could only get a 3 second exposure at F22. I got some frames without people but I like this one the best.

This memorial has been erected in memory of the National Guard and sits on the spot where the 29th National Guard Division broke through German defenses on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The monument and the original German bunker which it sits atop (Blockhouse WN72) are maintained by the National Guard Eductional Foundation (NGEF) to preserve the legacy and pay honor to all National Guardsmen.
Omaha Beach was one of the five D-Day landing beaches on 6th June 1944. On D-Day, the 29th Infantry Division and nine companies of U.S. Army Rangers (redirected from Pointe du Hoc) were to assault the western half of the beach. The more experienced 1st Infantry Division was given the eastern half. Very little went as planned during the landing at Omaha. Difficulties in navigation caused the majority of landing craft to miss their targets. The defenses were unexpectedly strong, and inflicted heavy casualties on landing American troops. Under heavy fire, the engineers struggled to clear the beach obstacles, later landings bunched up around the few channels that were cleared. Weakened by the casualties taken just in landing, the surviving assault troops could not clear the heavily defended exits off the beach. This caused further problems and consequent delays for later landings. Only 100 of the 2,400 tons of supplies scheduled to be landed on D-Day were landed. Small penetrations were eventually achieved by groups of survivors making improvised assaults, scaling the bluffs between the most heavily defended points. By the end of the day, two small isolated footholds had been won, which were subsequently exploited against weaker defenses further inland, thus achieving the original D-Day objectives over the following days.
An accurate figure for allied casualties at Omaha Beach on 6 June is not known, sources vary between 2,000 and 4,700 killed, wounded, and missing with the heaviest losses incurred by the infantry, tanks and engineers in the first landings. The German 352nd division suffered 1,200 killed, wounded and missing - about 20% of its strength. The landings at Omaha Beach were portrayed in the opening Act of the 1998 film Saving Private Ryan, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Hanks. Many veterans consider it to be the most accurate representation of the Normandy Landings ever commited to film.
Once the beachhead had been secured, Omaha Beach became the location of one of the two "Mulberry" harbours, prefabricated artificial harbors towed in pieces across the English Channel and assembled just off shore (the second was at Arromanches, at Gold Beach, built by the British troops). Construction of Mulberry A at Omaha began the day after D-Day with the scuttling of ships to form a breakwater. Ten days later harbour became operational when the first pier was completed, however three days the area was hit by worst storm to hit Normandy in 40 years and the harbour was so badly damaged that the decision was taken not to repair it.

Bangor bash Barban boys
by Roger Corbett
On a perfect afternoon for rugby, Bangor maintained their good winning streak by recording another bonus point victory against Dromore, eventually winning by 38-17.
With Bangor and Dromore looking secure in 3rd and 4th places respectively in the league, this game could have been viewed as a dead fixture. However, with Dromore no doubt wanting to reverse their earlier defeat, and Bangor wanting to maximise their points tally, the game was certainly competitive.
Bangor got proceedings underway, playing into a slight breeze that was blowing diagonally across the pitch. From the outset, Dromore used this slight advantage to gain good ground through well taken positional kicks. However, were equally happy to run the ball back and produced several good attacks in reply. In fact the home side could have been a couple of scores up in the first quarter, but the ball didn’t run for them at the crucial moments. However, the breakthrough eventually came when the handling across the backs was crisp and secure, giving Neil Cuthbertson on the right wing the opportunity to stretch his legs and dive over in the corner for a well-taken try. The difficult kick was missed, but the scoreboard had started in Bangor’s favour by 5-0.
The next twenty minutes were almost a copy of the first quarter, with Bangor making most of the attacking opportunities, only to be thwarted by a stubborn Dromore defence. For Dromore’s part, they also had their chances, and came close from a kick through that Cuthbertson managed to shepherd into the goal area and get the resulting twenty two drop-out. However, a slack response by Bangor handed the initiative back to Dromore who, after several surges, managed to push over for their first try in the right hand corner, levelling the scores at 5-5 with just a minute or two left in the first half.
Bangor’s reply from the restart was immediate and in complete contrast to how they approached the previous drop-out. Mark Thompson’s kick hung in the breeze, allowing Jamie Clegg to leap for it and continue running at the static Dromore defence. He then passed inside to Jason Morgan who then passed again to Mike Weir at outside centre. Although Weir had the option of Cuthbertson on the wing, he fooled the Dromore defence and made a charge for the line, just managing to squeeze over in the right hand corner. The conversion was missed, making the score 10-5.
With 2 minutes of stoppage time having elapsed, there was just enough time for Dromore to restart once more. However, another apparent lapse in concentration by Bangor in securing and then clearing the ball, allowed Dromore to come straight back and score an opportunist try in the corner and level the points at 10-10. As the referee blew for half time, the home supporters were stunned, feeling their side should have been well in front by this time.
As the teams turned around, Bangor produced their now familiar second half surge. Within 5 minutes, a good break by James Henly was stopped just inside the Dromore twenty two. Although the ball went to ground, good support play by Curtis Stewart saw him pick up and run through to score under the posts. Cuthbertson’s kick was good, and Bangor were back in front by 17-10.
An injury to full back Chris Morgan resulted in changes to both the forward and backs line-up, with Adam Rushe coming off the bench to take James Henly’s wing forward position, allowing Henly to move to outside centre, and moving Mike Weir to full back as a result. There followed a brief period of settling to this new structure, before Bangor struck again. Seeing a flat Dromore defence ahead of him, Jason Morgan chipped over their heads and began the chase for the line. The ball bounced favourably for him, and he just managed to gather and touch down ahead of the nearest defender. The kick was successful extending the lead to 24-10, and now with the additional bonus point.
Although Dromore maintained their own pressure, it was Bangor who were calling most of the shots. Just 7 minutes later, the ball went wide to Mark Widdowson on the left wing whose pace and footwork left several Dromore players floundering, before darting through to score under the posts. The addition of the simple conversion brought the score to 31-10.
With only 5 minutes remaining, Dromore produced a late push and brought play deep into Bangor’s twenty two. Although Dromore won their scrum close to Bangor’s line, it looked like Bangor had the attack covered. However a defensive mix-up left a gap that provided a simple run through for Dromore to score beside the posts. With the successful conversion, the gap had closed to 31-17.
Obviously annoyed by this mistake, Bangor came back at Dromore, forcing the visitors to concede a penalty inside their twenty two. Spurning the kick at goal, Thompson kicked for touch and an attacking line-out. With the ball safely won, Bangor started to drive forward, but the strong Dromore pack held it up. However, the ball was quickly recycled by Ricky Armstrong to Mark Thompson, who then passed to Jason Morgan who pushed off his tackler to score the final try of the day and, with the conversion, bring the final score to 38-17.
This was a good day for North Down sides playing Mid Down opposition. Bangor’s success against Dromore was matched by neighbours Donaghadee who produced an inspired performance to beat Ballynahinch 2nds and earn a place in this year’s Towns Cup final as a result – congratulations to all.
Bangor’s final fixture in this year’s league is away to Cooke next Saturday. The weekend is then topped off on Sunday afternoon with what should be a highly entertaining game between the Perennials and a Bangor Select XV. With several familiar faces from seasons past, this is sure to be a fun event, and one to come along and enjoy.

Traditional banking faces many challenges – not only the fast-changing business environment and digital landscape, but also the need to constantly improve the customer experience. Innovation today is seen as vital for banks to keep up, remain relevant and maintain their market position.

300 Students and workers march through Birmingham City Centre and 60 occupy the council chambers at Birmingham City Council for over 4 hours. Remaining protesters maintained a public protest outside the building to ensure the action was visible to a busy market square. Protests remained peaceful throughout the day.
The action in Birmingham today took place against a back from of what was the 3rd national day of action by students. It was a day of revolt—across Britain, from Dundee to Bournemouth, young people rose up against the attacks on education. The protest named X2 following day X on the 24th November and the 50, 000 NUS/UCU protest on the 10th of November.
These protests are a revolt against £9,000 university fees, the closing off of universities to all but the rich, and the abolition of the EMA allowance that 16-18 year olds rely on to go to college. But it was also about the way the Tories are ripping up people’s futures.
From the beginning of the occupations messages of solidarity flooded in from trade union representatives all over the city representing some of the most vulnerable members of the public and public sector workers under attack from the cuts including UNISON, PCS and UCU unions.
These included support workers, council workers and civil servants, support staff, teachers and lecturers in education, Connexions youth workers faced with job cuts and cuts to the services for the most vulnerable young people in Birmingham. Refugees and migrant workers will see a massive cut in legal aid, what little there is between what can mean life and death for those that are already exploited and degraded in the most appalling ways.
A statement from PCS Union representing over 300,000 civil servants said “Student protests against the attacks on education are inspirational to the rest of us. This is part of a concerted attack by this government to take away people’s rights to education, work, welfare, healthcare, housing and more. The question ultimately is: who pays for the crisis? It is clear that students should not pay for it, and it’s clear the public sector workers shouldn’t either. We should be unified in demanding that those who cause the crisis should pay for it. Keep up the fight, we can win.”
The student action was providing them inspiration and hope that there is an alternative to the CON-DEM cuts which would wreck the lives of millions.
Day X2 and day X has showed that the angry march and the occupation of Tory headquarters on 10 November was not a one-off event and there were as many if not more people involved each time.
Tens of thousands of students, especially school students, took to the streets. These school students know universities are being closed off to them by soaring fees. They know the cuts mean that only a few will get more than low-paid jobs.

Nowadays, Trastevere maintains its character thanks to its narrow cobbled streets lined by medieval houses. At night, both natives and tourists alike flock to its many pubs and restaurants. However, much of the original character of Trastevere remains. The area is also home to John Cabot University, a private American University, the American Academy in Rome, and the Rome campus of the Thomas More College of Liberal Arts, the Canadian University of Waterloo School of Architecture (between the months of September and December), and the American Pratt Institute School of Architecture therefore serving as home to an international student body.
The unique character of this neighborhood has attracted artists, foreign expats, and many famous people. In the sixties and seventies, the American musicians/composers Frederic Rzewski and Richard Teitelbaum, of the group Musica Elettronica Viva, lived in Via della Luce. Sergio Leone, the director of Spaghetti Westerns, grew up in Viale Glorioso (there is a marble plaque to his memory on the wall of the apartment building), and went to a Catholic private school in the neighborhood. Ennio Morricone, the film music composer, went to the same school, and for one year was in the same class as Sergio Leone.

Bangor bash Barban boys
by Roger Corbett
On a perfect afternoon for rugby, Bangor maintained their good winning streak by recording another bonus point victory against Dromore, eventually winning by 38-17.
With Bangor and Dromore looking secure in 3rd and 4th places respectively in the league, this game could have been viewed as a dead fixture. However, with Dromore no doubt wanting to reverse their earlier defeat, and Bangor wanting to maximise their points tally, the game was certainly competitive.
Bangor got proceedings underway, playing into a slight breeze that was blowing diagonally across the pitch. From the outset, Dromore used this slight advantage to gain good ground through well taken positional kicks. However, were equally happy to run the ball back and produced several good attacks in reply. In fact the home side could have been a couple of scores up in the first quarter, but the ball didn’t run for them at the crucial moments. However, the breakthrough eventually came when the handling across the backs was crisp and secure, giving Neil Cuthbertson on the right wing the opportunity to stretch his legs and dive over in the corner for a well-taken try. The difficult kick was missed, but the scoreboard had started in Bangor’s favour by 5-0.
The next twenty minutes were almost a copy of the first quarter, with Bangor making most of the attacking opportunities, only to be thwarted by a stubborn Dromore defence. For Dromore’s part, they also had their chances, and came close from a kick through that Cuthbertson managed to shepherd into the goal area and get the resulting twenty two drop-out. However, a slack response by Bangor handed the initiative back to Dromore who, after several surges, managed to push over for their first try in the right hand corner, levelling the scores at 5-5 with just a minute or two left in the first half.
Bangor’s reply from the restart was immediate and in complete contrast to how they approached the previous drop-out. Mark Thompson’s kick hung in the breeze, allowing Jamie Clegg to leap for it and continue running at the static Dromore defence. He then passed inside to Jason Morgan who then passed again to Mike Weir at outside centre. Although Weir had the option of Cuthbertson on the wing, he fooled the Dromore defence and made a charge for the line, just managing to squeeze over in the right hand corner. The conversion was missed, making the score 10-5.
With 2 minutes of stoppage time having elapsed, there was just enough time for Dromore to restart once more. However, another apparent lapse in concentration by Bangor in securing and then clearing the ball, allowed Dromore to come straight back and score an opportunist try in the corner and level the points at 10-10. As the referee blew for half time, the home supporters were stunned, feeling their side should have been well in front by this time.
As the teams turned around, Bangor produced their now familiar second half surge. Within 5 minutes, a good break by James Henly was stopped just inside the Dromore twenty two. Although the ball went to ground, good support play by Curtis Stewart saw him pick up and run through to score under the posts. Cuthbertson’s kick was good, and Bangor were back in front by 17-10.
An injury to full back Chris Morgan resulted in changes to both the forward and backs line-up, with Adam Rushe coming off the bench to take James Henly’s wing forward position, allowing Henly to move to outside centre, and moving Mike Weir to full back as a result. There followed a brief period of settling to this new structure, before Bangor struck again. Seeing a flat Dromore defence ahead of him, Jason Morgan chipped over their heads and began the chase for the line. The ball bounced favourably for him, and he just managed to gather and touch down ahead of the nearest defender. The kick was successful extending the lead to 24-10, and now with the additional bonus point.
Although Dromore maintained their own pressure, it was Bangor who were calling most of the shots. Just 7 minutes later, the ball went wide to Mark Widdowson on the left wing whose pace and footwork left several Dromore players floundering, before darting through to score under the posts. The addition of the simple conversion brought the score to 31-10.
With only 5 minutes remaining, Dromore produced a late push and brought play deep into Bangor’s twenty two. Although Dromore won their scrum close to Bangor’s line, it looked like Bangor had the attack covered. However a defensive mix-up left a gap that provided a simple run through for Dromore to score beside the posts. With the successful conversion, the gap had closed to 31-17.
Obviously annoyed by this mistake, Bangor came back at Dromore, forcing the visitors to concede a penalty inside their twenty two. Spurning the kick at goal, Thompson kicked for touch and an attacking line-out. With the ball safely won, Bangor started to drive forward, but the strong Dromore pack held it up. However, the ball was quickly recycled by Ricky Armstrong to Mark Thompson, who then passed to Jason Morgan who pushed off his tackler to score the final try of the day and, with the conversion, bring the final score to 38-17.
This was a good day for North Down sides playing Mid Down opposition. Bangor’s success against Dromore was matched by neighbours Donaghadee who produced an inspired performance to beat Ballynahinch 2nds and earn a place in this year’s Towns Cup final as a result – congratulations to all.
Bangor’s final fixture in this year’s league is away to Cooke next Saturday. The weekend is then topped off on Sunday afternoon with what should be a highly entertaining game between the Perennials and a Bangor Select XV. With several familiar faces from seasons past, this is sure to be a fun event, and one to come along and enjoy.

Cleaning green is an excellent way to honor your going green choices. Many individuals think that going green is something new; however, if you speak to some elders you will see that being green has been around for quite some time – at least in the cleaning department.
