Proceeding contribution from Baroness Coffey (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 March 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Local Media.
Local Media
My hon. Friend raises an extremely important point. Just this morning, the editor of the Ipswich Star, Nigel Pickover—there is also the Felixstowe Star—raised that point with me. I am sure that my hon. Friend agrees with me that local papers are very important for democracy and holding representatives to account and for conducting campaigns, which he has mentioned. Taking away some of their regular revenue puts more papers at risk.
