Speeches by Mishra.

“5. What discussions he has had with the Northern Ireland Executive on community cohesion in Northern Ireland.”

“I thank the Secretary of State for that answer. What assessment has he made of the level of online co-ordination during the recent unrest in Belfast, and what discussions has he had with the Police Service of Northern Ireland and other security partners about addressing that issue?”

“My question is about the support that is provided by IPSA—the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority. Who would like to start?”

“The same for me, Chair: Suzanne is my office manager.”

“Vernon Building Society, which was established in 1924, offers financial services to people in Stockport and across Greater Manchester. It is a true mutual, owned by members, not shareholders. However, as the building society sector grows, there are concerns about meaningful democratic engagement for members. In partic…”

“I am happy to take an intervention from Northern Ireland.”

“The hon. Gentleman makes an important point. It is extremely important to invest in our high streets and have thriving high streets with independent local businesses, as well as thriving district centres. We are lucky that Reddish has a wide range of fantastic independent local businesses, as I will mention later. As I…”

“In meetings with the hon. Lady I have pushed the Government for more funding for Stockport, and I just mentioned that the Government should go beyond what the 7.5% increase will deliver. I agree that more deprived and lower-income areas across Stockport and Greater Manchester deserve more attention; we cannot have a on…”

“I have limited time and am already running behind. I may give way later, if I can. The people of Reddish are not asking for special treatment; they just want fairness. I ask that the people of Reddish get equal treatment, and the same investment and urgency that appear elsewhere in Stockport borough. If money is so tig…”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered Government support for regeneration in Reddish. It is a pleasure to serve in this debate with you and other colleagues, Mr Western. I thank everyone who has contacted me regarding the status and future of Reddish library and Reddish baths, and more widely about investment a…”

“My constituency neighbour, the hon. Member for Hazel Grove (Lisa Smart), is nodding. At a time when the Labour Government and the Stockport Mayoral Development Corporation are helping to deliver 8,000 new homes, the case for investment in Lancashire Hill has never been stronger. Growth must be matched by fairness. Whil…”

“The Secretary of State is right to say that the benefits of this plan will be felt right across the UK; it will increase exports, generate growth and reindustrialise our economy. I am proud to represent KNDS in Stockport, which manufactures military bridges and Boxer armoured vehicles. I am grateful to the Minister for…”

“Thank you, Sir Jeremy. I congratulate the right hon. Member for The Wrekin (Mark Pritchard) on securing this debate. Given the number of people present, it will be a successful debate, and it is a pleasure to serve with you in the Chair, Sir Jeremy. Technology plays a huge role in all our lives. I think all of us in th…”

“I have a lot to say about the Trump Administration, but I will not bore the House with those remarks. The threats we are seeing to modern society from artificial intelligence are quite serious and there is an unpredictable Government in Washington DC. The Government should do a big piece of work, similar to that being …”

“The thoughts and prayers of the people of Stockport are with Shaun Burton’s family and friends. East Midlands Railway serves Stockport and connects us to Sheffield, Nottingham and beyond, so I thank all EMR staff and the railway workers who support those services. Can the Secretary of State reassure the House that Brit…”

“I thank all railway staff at stations across Stockport, not only in my constituency but in neighbouring constituencies. I also declare an interest—trade unions have made donations to my constituency Labour party. The British Transport Police recorded a 5% increase in crime in the 12 months leading up to June 2025, incl…”

“I refer the House to my entry in the Register of Members’ Financial Interests. Black, Asian and minority ethnic workers represent 25% of the directly employed workforce of train operating companies, but that figure rises to just under 60% for outsourced cleaners and caterers. Does my right hon. Friend agree that outsou…”

“I thank my good friend, my hon. Friend the Member for Norwich South (Clive Lewis), for all his work on this issue to protect the environment and customers. My local supplier is United Utilities and I receive vast amounts of correspondence about its poor performance. To provide a couple of stats, 50.6 litres of water ar…”

“I declare my interest as chair of the all-party parliamentary group on cancer and the donations made by trade unions to my constituency Labour party. I welcome a Bill to modernise the NHS, but our local hospital in Stockport, Stepping Hill, needs a lot of modernisation. The building is quite old and lots of problems ha…”
