| 16 Oct 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1321) “At the moment, it sounds as if there are no criteria. One of the major issues has been the lack of parliamentary scrutiny, so we could not ask these questions before the arrangement was put into place. It sounds as if the criteria for the people who are sent back are not clear. It is not clear that there is a safe and …” | 182 |
| 16 Oct 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1321) “How effective a deterrent do you expect the deal to be overall? What level and scale of returns would have to happen for you to say that it had made a significant enough impact?” | 34 |
| 16 Oct 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1321) “What criteria would they have to meet? Do you not envisage any problems with them having to go to Paris, given their situation? Presumably, at this stage, they are in Calais.” | 31 |
| 16 Oct 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1321) “Can you explain how it opens up a safe and legal route?” | 12 |
| 16 Oct 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1321) “Thank you for coming. I would like to ask more questions about the one in, one out treaty with France, which you started to explain. Could you explain what your role was in that deal and what lessons you are learning from one in, one out?” | 46 |
| 15 Oct 2025 | Health and Social Care Committee “As the chair of the all-party parliamentary group on black maternal health, I extend my gratitude to my hon. Friend the Member for Birmingham Erdington (Paulette Hamilton) and all the members on the Health and Social Care Committee for this vital report. Was my hon. Friend disappointed, as I was, not to see any specifi…” healthsocial-care | 89 |
| 12 Oct 2025 | Baby Loss “I know that this debate is not an easy one for those of us participating and for the campaigners, activists and bereaved parents who are listening, but it is nevertheless vital and I am very thankful that it is taking place. I begin by commending all those, including my hon. Friends who have led this debate in the Hous…” healthsocial-care | 770 |
| 12 Oct 2025 | Points of Order “On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. On 25 September, I sent a letter to the Foreign Secretary that was signed by more than 80 Members of the House. It expressed our pressing concern for the safety of British citizens participating in the global sumud flotilla, a non-violent humanitarian mission trying to deliver…” mp-performancelocal-government | 212 |
| 9 Sept 2025 | Occupied Palestinian Territories: Humanitarian Access “My hon. Friend will be aware of the Global Sumud Flotilla, which is the largest maritime mission to Gaza and includes civilians from across the globe, two of whom are constituents of mine. This aid mission is entirely legal, non-violent and presents no threat to the Israeli Government or Israeli citizens. However, we h…” healthsocial-caredefence | 120 |
| 7 Sept 2025 | Indefinite Leave to Remain “It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Mr Pritchard. I, too, thank the Petitions Committee and my hon. Friend the Member for South Norfolk (Ben Goldsborough) for bringing forward this debate. When the Government introduced their immigration White Paper, they proposed increasing the standard qualifying period f…” immigrationsocial-careeconomy-jobs | 759 |
| 7 Sept 2025 | Palestine Action: Proscription and Protests “Those arrested were merely holding signs, wearing T-shirts and displaying general support for a group that does not come close to the loosest definition of terrorism. Meanwhile, political pundits and columnists seem free to discuss Palestine Action without fear of criminal prosecution. I do not think that anyone should…” crimeculture-community | 123 |
| 2 Sept 2025 | Engagements “Q6. This week, the Global Sumud flotilla, which includes British citizens, set sail for Gaza to break the illegal blockade and deliver much-needed aid. In June, a British boat, the Madleen, was threatened and its crew detained, but we took no action. Can the Prime Minister say what has been learned from this, and what …” economy-jobsfiscal-policydefence | 67 |
| 2 Sept 2025 | Duty of Candour for Public Authorities and Legal Representation for Bereaved Families “I congratulate my hon. Friend on all the hard work he has done on this issue since he entered the House. As he was speaking, I thought to myself that in all the cases that have led to these discussions—Hillsborough, the infected blood scandal, nuclear test veterans, the Primodos scandal and countless others—the victims…” social-carecrimehealth | 154 |
| 1 Sept 2025 | English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill “I really welcome the Bill’s efforts to strengthen communities and local democracy. However, I am worried that not enough is being done to protect private renters. In Lambeth, nearly a third of residents are renters. Rents are rising faster than wages, and the average renter is paying 72% more than the national average,…” local-governmenteconomy-jobshousing | 110 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Business of the House “In April, I raised the issue of the need for blood donations, and of people from diverse communities being turned away. In response to parliamentary questions about diversity and blood referrals, I initially received data, provided by NHS Blood and Transplant, stating that 70% of black blood donors were being turned aw…” local-governmentdefencehealth | 224 |
| 15 Jul 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 903) “I will go to my next question about the link between the online and offline space, and this may feed into some of what you have pointed to in terms of incel culture. Do you think you can identify certain individuals who may be more susceptible to certain things online? Have you seen certain individuals being targeted b…” | 81 |
| 15 Jul 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 903) “Thank you very much. You might be right, because if our search history as members of the Home Affairs Committee was to be looked at, we ourselves might be flagged. In that vein, do you think there might be way to future-proof against rapidly changing technologies when it comes to the way in which platforms are being en…” | 94 |
| 15 Jul 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 903) “What trends are you seeing at the moment in how online spaces are used to spread and reinforce new forms of extremism?” | 22 |
| 15 Jul 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 903) “How effective do both of you think Prevent is at identifying and addressing online extremist behaviour overall?” | 17 |
| 15 Jul 2025 | Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 903) “There have been wide-ranging criticisms of Prevent overall, and I definitely take your point about people being more susceptible if there are things going on outside what they are seeing on their phone or computer. The question is more geared towards whether Prevent is equipped enough or is doing well enough at tacklin…” | 89 |
