That this House recognises the importance of local and regional newspapers in reporting the democratic process and holding politicians to account; further recognises the historical role played by the Bristol Evening Post and Western Daily Press in providing an invaluable service to their respective communities; and therefore condemns proposals by Northcliffe newspapers to sack 36 journalists across both titles.
