Parliamentary Policy Briefing
What is parliament saying about your issue?
Requires the UK Legal MCP server
A Claude skill that researches the parliamentary landscape around a policy topic. Searches Hansard, identifies key MPs, assesses parliamentary reception, and maps related legislation into a structured briefing.
The problem
Understanding the political landscape on a policy means searching Hansard manually, reading debate transcripts, identifying who said what, and cross-referencing with legislation. A thorough policy briefing takes a researcher half a day. Most people skip it and go in underprepared.
What it does

- Identifies key MPs and Lords: advocates, critics, ministers with responsibility
