11 Jun 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 942)

It does not sound to me like things are particularly clear, so do you think there is still a role for Parliament to play in legislating to bring further clarity?

9 Jun 2025 Planning and Infrastructure Bill

I thank the hon. Gentleman for the entertainment he provided throughout the Bill Committee’s proceedings, and for his generosity in the Tea Room. Talking about reflection, however, would he agree that when one looks in the mirror, one does not always like what one sees? The Minister has reflected on many of the proposa

8 Jun 2025 Winter Fuel Payment

I thank the Minister for his statement, which will be warmly welcomed by constituents, particularly pensioners who were just above the threshold and who lost out last winter. Does he agree that measures such as rolling out free breakfast clubs—I visited one this morning at Goodyers End primary school—are making a real

3 Jun 2025 Swimming Facilities

The swimming pool in Atherstone, in my constituency, opened in 1969, and is where I learned to swim. Today it closes regularly because of boiler problems, and despite the swimming pool support fund, it is reaching the end of its life. If it closes and is rebuilt, it will inevitably be closed for around 18 months. There

3 Jun 2025 Prosecutions for Violence against Women and Girls: West Midlands

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Ms Jardine. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Wolverhampton West (Warinder Juss) for securing this debate. I am aware of his extensive knowledge of and passion for this subject. Violence against women and girls is a national emergency, rather than the inevitability

1 Jun 2025Bus Services (No. 2) Bill [Lords]

I thank my right hon. Friend for introducing the Bill. Sarah, one of my constituents, is here today. Her work with the National Federation of the Blind of the UK and its street access campaign has demonstrated the difficulty that blind and partially sighted people experience in accessing buses. They cannot make the cho

21 May 2025Sports Facilities: Areas of Housing Growth

In my hometown of Atherstone, the leisure centre and swimming pool is beyond its useful life. That is the case for more than 50% of swimming facilities up and down this country. When we talk about building new homes, we need to make sure that we are building accessible communities with facilities for people to enjoy sp

21 May 2025Planning and Infrastructure Bill (Fourteenth sitting)

It is a long-standing norm that building regulations deal not just with the construction of buildings but their thermal efficiency and performance. That is why energy performance certificates were introduced, and there are regulations on windows, glazing and glass roofs all found within the building regulations. Surely

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

I wanted to move on to looking at education. To Kaitlyn first, if I may: what education do you think should be included in the national curriculum to help prevent the influence of the manosphere on young men and boys?

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

It is fine. It is a difficult question. Do you think there is anything that people can do to de-radicalise people when they have reached that stage?

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

It is to help us, so that we can ask what red flags are there along that route, and how we can turn somebody back.

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

This question is to Lisa. At what point do you think you would consider that someone has been radicalised by manosphere content, and how can they be de-radicalised?

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

You have already touched on your peer-to-peer mentoring programme, so I will move on in the interest of moving things forward.

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

Jacob, do you have anything to add in terms of how you think we can be reaching men and educating them?

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

Interesting. Could I ask you, Janaya, how we can reach men who are no longer in education, particularly young men?

21 May 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 867)

Thank you for bearing with us through what seems like a long process, particularly when we can hear people having fun outside. It is always more difficult.

19 May 2025Planning and Infrastructure Bill (Twelfth sitting)

I thank the hon. Member for her lengthy and detailed explanation of zero carbon standards. Does she think it is appropriate to constrain the Minister to bringing forward building regulations within the short period of six months? Would that take longer? Not all of us have the same detailed and intricate knowledge of th

19 May 2025Planning and Infrastructure Bill (Twelfth sitting)

I think what comes across in some of the proposed new clauses, which is not the case in the Bill itself, is a punitive scheme for developers. What we need to do is work in partnership with smaller developers and community developers in particular, so that we can build out any number of different types of homes—whether

19 May 2025Planning and Infrastructure Bill (Twelfth sitting)

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship again, Ms Jardine. I rise to speak first to new clause 1, which seems to me, as someone who has worked closely with developers, ill thought out. It does not address the need to build more social and affordable homes. Permissions that are granted, particularly on brownfield
