Speeches by Nokes.

““Him”, not “you”. I call Sir Iain Duncan Smith.”

“Order. I think the hon. Lady has made her point. I call Gavin Robinson.”

“I call the Minister.”

“Order. The right hon. Gentleman just referred to the right hon. Member for Richmond and Northallerton by name. He really should know better than to do that.”

“Order. The Minister has done it three times now. If I can tell off new Members, I can certainly tell off long-standing ones. No “yous” in the Chamber!”

“I call the shadow Secretary of State.”

“Order—[Interruption.] Order. Just a quick reminder that when I am on my feet, Members should not be. That is third time the hon. Gentleman has said “you”; perhaps he will be a bit more careful in the rest of his speech.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“Order. Supplementary questions should be short and not a speech. Perhaps the hon. Member would like to come to the conclusion of his question.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“I call the shadow Minister.”

“I thank the Leader of the House for a comprehensive session of business questions.”

“And now, a final pithy question from Sir John Hayes.”

“I thank the Secretary of State both for coming to the House to give his statement and, indeed, for the timing of it; it is hugely appreciated.”

“Order. The Chief Secretary might like to reflect that when he says, “What are yours?”, it means, “What are mine?” They are not my choices. Can he please be careful not to use “you” and “yours”?”

“Order. There will be a five-minute time limit from the outset—obviously not including the Liberal Democrat spokesperson. I call Daisy Cooper.”

“Order. We simply cannot have interventions of that length. Only nine Members are going to get to speak this evening and the hon. Lady is on the list, but those who choose to make long interventions might find themselves removed from it.”

“Order. There will now be a four-minute time limit. A reminder about interventions: Members are using up the time that others could have had.”

“Order. That was perfectly long enough.”

“Order. That brings us to the Front-Bench contributions.”
