Speeches by Craft.

“I would hope to see it change, because I would reflect that at the moment in some of the poorer areas of my constituency, that is not necessarily the case. That is what I have had reported back to me. Liz, I will pick up briefly on what you were saying about the nutrient profile model and the concerns about it. You men…”

“Would you not support a nutrient profiling model that makes that crystal clear? I keep coming back to the example of Coco Pops—my colleagues know that I seem to have a vendetta against that particular breakfast cereal. That packet has several health claims on it—on fibre, on protein—but the sugar content of that cereal…”

“Thank you for coming today. I want to turn to healthy sales targets, and I might pick up a bit on what my colleague Danny was just focusing on. Many of you have already implemented healthy sales targets. Is there anything that the Government could learn from your experiences when designing their new healthy food standa…”

“Thank you. Beth, I think you said that Asda was seeing year-on-year reports of healthier food targets being met. Do you have that data to hand, or are you able to write to us and share it?”

“Okay, fantastic. I want to pick up on a couple of slightly more niche things. You said that smaller stores are exempt from Government legislation on product placement and various other policies aimed at it, but obviously a number of you have smaller stores that fall into that footprint. Have you taken action in your sm…”

“People are the backbone of our NHS, and I am incredibly grateful to the healthcare staff who work in it, particularly in Thurrock, and who care tirelessly every day, often in difficult conditions, for my constituents. As a lifelong Thurrock resident, I have experienced their excellent care as a patient, and now as an M…”

“Ensignbus, which operates in my constituency, is not a bus manufacturer per se, but it repurposes buses and is looking to get into the repowering of buses that have finished their natural life, usually in London, which will aid the switch to zero emissions. Will my hon. Friend join me in encouraging and supporting it i…”

“It is a pleasure to see you in the Chair, Mrs Barker. I extend my congratulations to the campaigners for securing this debate, and particularly to the 442 people in my constituency who signed the petition. As many Members have pointed out, play-based learning is not about lowering attainment or standards. Indeed, count…”

“Are you confident that the MPTS have the understanding and expertise? Are you satisfied with the outcomes where you refer cases of antisemitism to them?”

“Have you taken steps to assure yourself that your internal procedures and the things that have prompted the Mann review do not reflect an organisational weakness in how you handle cases of racism and antisemitism?”

“Do you imagine that, following the Mann report, you will have to make significant changes in the way you handle these kinds of investigations?”

“I will explain what I would be interested in as a bit of self-reflection. I have been speaking to people I know who would fall under your regulatory frameworks—doctors and so on—and they feel that the way the GMC has approached the scale of antisemitism over the last couple of years has perhaps not been as robust or dy…”

“Returning to the other regulatory bodies, does the ability exist for co-ordination between you all to tackle this kind of significant issue, or is that a wider issue for someone else to answer?”

“But would it be fair to say that there is no one in the GMC at the moment who has expertise in antisemitism?”

“This is a brief follow-up on that note. You have placed conditions on my local acute hospital’s anaesthetics and training programme, and thank you very much for writing to keep me updated on that. The reason why you have attached conditions is mainly concerns about misogyny and sexually inappropriate remarks and behavi…”

“Thank you. I will leave it there.”

“The question is really about whether people who have been engaging in this behaviour will be held accountable, rather than how we change the culture. People have been perpetuating this kind of behaviour, and all that seems to have happened thus far is that the victims of it have been moved to an alternative hospital in…”

“On those definitions and work, where is the line to be drawn between the free speech and opinions of medical professionals—not just doctors—and where those play into questions of fitness to practise?”

“Are those boundaries fairly clearly defined or are they constantly evolving? When is something an opinion and when does it impact on your ability to carry out your job as a medical professional?”

“Who in your organisation has expert knowledge of antisemitism? What training has been undertaken by some of your assessors in that regard?”
