Where Britain Leads - everyone else follows...

My little joke.... I refer to the fact that Parliament returned yesterday. The US Congress returns today, and a special session of the French parlement is being held today and tomorrow.

The websites for these institutions are

US House of Representatives
US Senate
French Assemblee nationale
French Senat

(the French Parlement sites are available in English - from the home pages above)

Of course, the European Parliament beat everyone - returning for a committee week last Monday. The next plenary session will be held in Strasbourg on 12th - 15th September. A weekly summary of events in the European Parliament is available here, while the Draft Agenda for the September plenary is accessible here.
