The NUJ Parliamentary Group in the House of Commons acts as a working group facilitating the NUJ’s lobbying, liaison and campaigning. The group is made up of around 25 MPs. As the NUJ is not affiliated to any political party the group comprises MPs from all the main parties.

The group actively challenges censorship and campaigns for limits on the concentration of media; supports public service broadcasting; and campaigns for an end to the long-hours culture and low pay.

The union’s parliamentary officer, based in the Houses of Parliament, co-ordinates the NUJ’s Parliamentary strategy: monitoring legislation; tabling amendments; proposing parliamentary questions and Early Day Motions (EDM); and lobbying for support.
