Attend PMQs

 

Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) is a ticketed event which takes place every Wednesday at 12pm. Tickets are free of charge and are available only to UK residents through your Member of Parliament.

​

If you are a Wakefield and Rothwell constituent you can contact Simon about PMQ tickets.

 

You can check which constituency you fall under on the UK Parliament website.

 

For PMQs, advance booking is essential. MPs have a very limited number of tickets so requests should be made as far in advance as possible.
