Speeches by Fleet.

“Fourteen years of Conservative rule meant that we all saw child poverty levels rise. One in five children across the country now grows up in scarring poverty. A quarter of all children in Bolsover live in poverty. Can the Minister please set out the measures that this Labour Government will take to end this travesty?”

“9. What steps she plans to take to help improve living standards.”

“Microsoft has asked that funding be made available for police training and judicial education specific to deepfake NCII harm. Will the Government make that funding available?”

“Should they also be able to claim damages from search engines that produce the results for those websites and platforms?”

“Should victims of synthetic NCII be able to claim damages from the relevant deepfake creator platforms and host websites?”

“Alex, you recently said that you were considering what further legislative measures were needed to ban sexual deepfakes and nudification apps. What measures are you considering?”

“This is a question for Sam: do police officers receive any specialist training on responding to victims of synthetic or deepfake NCII, and if not, would you support such training being offered?”

“What are the challenges facing police with regards to bringing to justice criminal gangs overseas committing sextortion?”

“The Government committed to strengthening police training on violence against women and girls. Can you provide more detail on what this will mean in practice for deepfake NCII specifically?”

“Does the Government need to change its approach to women’s health?”

“Since the strategy was implemented in 2002, where have you seen the most progress and where is progress lacking?”

“My question is whether there could be guidance available to women who seek it. Right now, if you googled, “How do I tell my child that they were born as a result of rape?”, you would get results relating to countries very far away.

“You mentioned earlier that Naga Munchetty had asked you for something on the website and you had delivered it. If you could consider also delivering some advice about this on the NHS website, that would be really appreciated.”

“Wonderful. I am absolutely thrilled that we are talking about women’s reproductive health. I really liked it when you said that we need to think about what a woman needs and wrap our care around her—I absolutely love that. It feels like there is a huge omission, because I cannot see anywhere a mention of conceptions fr…”

“Thank you. Dr Mann, a blood test has been authorised to help diagnose PCOS, but we understand it is not available via the NHS for that purpose. Should it be?”

“Was the women’s health strategy for England suitably ambitious? What are the performance indicators that we can use to judge its impact so far?”

“This was specifically about reporting. There are helplines available to talk through it, but is there anything to report it?”

“Earlier this year, the Committee heard from NCII survivor and campaigner, Georgia Harrison. She described the positive difference it would make for victims if platforms had a phone line that they could call to report this. Is this something you have and if not, is it something you could have?”

“It is the honour of my life to be in this Chamber as the Member for Bolsover, a seat made famous by the legend that is Dennis Skinner. From Calow to Pilsley, they tell me stories of him singing to them on the phone, and they remind me of his witty one-liners. He showed the very best of politics: what can be achieved wh…”
