Adjournment Debate

Spotted this tweet earlier today: "@stellacreasy’s adjournment debate about her Consumer Credit (Regulation and Advice) Bill is tomorrow at 11am in Westminster Hall." For those not familiar with twitter it's someone spreading the word that our MP has secured an adjournment debate tomorrow on her bill to counter legal loan sharking. This means that the government have to respond; they can't just ignore the bill which passed its first reading last week (watch Stella's speech in this ten minute rule debate below). If you have a chance to go and support Stella in parliament it would be very much appreciated. There is a possibility of cross party support as many coalition mps have already tweeted favourably, and none opposed it in the first reading.
