| 9 Mar 2026 | Foreign Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 703) “Respectfully, Dr Fernández, Grok has been embedded into X, and the UK basically had to threaten legislative action to get X to stop allowing Grok to produce sexualised images of women and children, with no attempt by X to moderate at all. You talk about being a marketplace for ideas, but that is peddling paedophilic im…” | 159 |
| 9 Mar 2026 | Foreign Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 703) “In John’s worked example—let us assume that the system is not 100% perfect and content has got through—does an individual have to prove that it is not them, or is it enough for them to simply go, “That is AI; that is a lie; that’s not what I said,” to get something withdrawn?” | 53 |
| 9 Mar 2026 | Foreign Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 703) “Dr Fernández, I want to clarify something I thought I heard you say earlier, which was that you have removed 800 million accounts from X. Did I hear that right?” | 30 |
| 4 Mar 2026 | Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office “I thank the right hon. Member—I have the huge privilege of serving under her chairmanship of the Foreign Affairs Committee. I do not disagree that the British relationship with the United States goes far beyond the current occupant of the Oval Office. I am extremely grateful for the depth of our relationship, especiall…” defenceeconomy-jobsenvironment | 444 |
| 4 Mar 2026 | Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office “I am sure I am not alone in having been contacted by constituents trapped in the middle east or by those further afield who were hoping to transfer in the middle east on their way home. I am extremely grateful to all the FCDO staff around the world who are helping them out. It has brought into stark relief the fact tha…” defenceeconomy-jobsenvironment | 515 |
| 4 Mar 2026 | China: Foreign Interference Arrests “I praise the work of our police and our security and intelligence services in this case. I thank the Minister for his statement. Like him, I look forward to the publication of the Rycroft report. The Foreign Affairs Committee heard evidence from the Electoral Commission, as did the Joint Committee on the National Secur…” defencecrimeimmigration | 91 |
| 4 Mar 2026 | Draft Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 (Consequential Amendments and Transitional Provision) Regulations 2026 “The Liberal Democrats support the regulations, which make necessary and consequential amendments following the passage of the Data (Use and Access) Act. They ensure that references across more than 800 pieces of UK legislation are updated to reflect the replacement of the Information Commissioner and the Information Co…” technologyeconomy-jobs | 124 |
| 3 Mar 2026 | Environmental Protection and Biodiversity “It is an honour to serve under your chairship, Sir Roger. I join other Members in congratulating the hon. Member for North East Hertfordshire (Chris Hinchliff) on this important debate. I, like many others, would love to speak about a whole host of things, but given the time constraints, I will just talk about chalk st…” environmentagriculturelocal-government | 287 |
| 2 Mar 2026 | Middle East “The Iranian regime is a murderous regime. It is an exporter of terrorism, and a threat to regional and national security, and its removal is good for British security and good for the Iranian people. However, what comes next is even more important than what has happened. The Prime Minister has repeatedly said that he w…” defenceenergy | 75 |
| 24 Feb 2026 | Local Transport: Planning Developments “It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Sir Desmond. I congratulate my hon. Friend the Member for Harpenden and Berkhamsted (Victoria Collins) on securing this important debate and on her continued work in this policy area. In West Dorset, the issue with planning development is not just about how many homes we …” housingtransportlocal-government | 814 |
| 23 Feb 2026 | Firearms Licensing “Will the hon. Gentleman give way?” agriculturecrimeeconomy-jobs | 6 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | Rural GPs: Funding “In a similar vein to the previous intervention, one in five GP buildings predate the NHS itself, which is a quite staggering fact, and over a third of GPs say their premises are no longer fit for purpose. In places such as West Dorset, outdated buildings struggle to deal with the current population, let alone the proje…” healthlocal-governmenteconomy-jobs | 105 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | New Medium Helicopter Programme “I do not disagree with the points the Minister is making, and Lord knows I am happy for us to dedicate the rest of the debate to bashing the previous Administration for their failures. He talks about the need to future-proof decision making. Part of the problem that we have with defence procurement is the length of tim…” defenceeconomy-jobs | 142 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | New Medium Helicopter Programme “I am aware of the time and it sounds like the Minister is wrapping up, but I did not want to be the only Member in the debate who had not been complimented on their tie.” defenceeconomy-jobs | 36 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | Police Grant Report “Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. Of course, I agree with my Dorset neighbour. All the Dorset MPs have written repeatedly to Ministers to ask for a fairer funding settlement, and I shall speak to some of those issues. None of the additional demand caused by our population increases during the summer months is properly f…” crimefiscal-policylocal-government | 333 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | Police Grant Report “I thank the right hon. Gentleman for saving me from the indignity of not being intervened on by him during this debate. I agree that local police forces need to be local, and that we want bobbies on the beat everywhere. Forces that routinely generate surpluses are able to invest in more officers, better technology and …” crimefiscal-policylocal-government | 169 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | Police Grant Report “I thank my fellow Dorset MP for his intervention. He will know that we welcome a huge number of tourists, who are vital for our local hospitality and tourism economy. While we want people to come, this does put an incredible strain on our local police forces and the funding needs to reflect that population increase.” crimefiscal-policylocal-government | 56 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | Police Grant Report “The 2026-27 settlement delivers a cash increase nationally but once again fails to address the structural unfairness faced by rural forces such as Dorset. It does not properly reflect rurality, seasonal population increases or the cumulative impact of more than a decade of underfunding. Dorset police is consistently on…” crimefiscal-policylocal-government | 422 |
| 11 Feb 2026 | New Medium Helicopter Programme “I thank my hon. Friend and constituency neighbour for giving way. He will know that many people who work at the Leonardo site live in West Dorset and commute. The company is responsible for providing training and apprentice opportunities for thousands of my constituents. I feel like every strategic defence review about…” defenceeconomy-jobs | 150 |
| 10 Feb 2026 | Independent Water Commission: Final Report “During my speech, I will outline some such recommendations. This is a good opportunity to thank Surfers Against Sewage for all its hard work. Like my hon. Friend, I use the app regularly before deciding whether to swim at my favourite beaches. It is an understatement to say that the public’s confidence in the water sec…” environmentutilitieshealth | 255 |
