Westminster this week - the autumn statement dominates but a lot more also happening in Westminster

Wednesday at 12.30 sees the autumn statement. In it the chancellor will set out how he intends to try and balance the books, and implement the manifesto that the country voted for.

In addition I have the usual mix of constituents, companies and other matters before parliament. I have Haltwhistle employer RPC coming to the plastics reception in the commons, a meeting on arch cru, and multiple other debates this week. The main one is the Childcare Bill, of which I will blog more later this week. The PM will also be setting out the details of the strategic defence review.
