Speeches by Taylor.

“It is really inspiring to be joined by three inspirational women in the field of sport. I am probably the second most enthusiastic person about sport on this Committee, because nobody could be more enthusiastic than Kim. I am delighted to follow in her footsteps by chairing the all-party parliamentary group for sport a…”

“This question is about football clubs, Debbie, but I think it goes for other sports too. Is there more that wealthy clubs and players could be doing to support grassroots sport?”

“That is really interesting. Do you think there has been sufficient funding for sports programmes that are focused on community cohesion?”

“Thank you—that is really helpful.”

“That is really interesting, because in my area we have been given money through Pride in Place. We asked those young people who are involved in antisocial behaviour in our local supermarket, “Why do you go and hang out there?” The answer was that they can meet their friends, talk to them and share what they have seen o…”

“Many of us, as constituency MPs, have seen the work though the Premier League, the English Football League and so on. Is it fair to say that the funding model has become more fragmented and could it, or should it, be made simpler?”

“I thank the Secretary of State for standing up for women and children with conviction and dedication, and with no ifs, no buts. I share that dedication. As a member of the Women and Equalities Committee, I supported our inquiry into non-consensual intimate image abuse. Witnesses told us that one of the most damaging as…”

“T9. Constituents who responded to my commuter survey made it clear that the rail service from Coleshill and Water Orton to Birmingham is just not good enough. I called for CrossCountry to reinstate its 7.35 train from Water Orton and to introduce a new later service, and I am delighted that this has been done, but over…”

“Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for taking pity on my throat. I recently held a public meeting about road safety in Polesworth, where there have been reports of illegal street racing. Constituents shared with me their concerns about the illegal number plates used by criminals to get away with dangerous driving. That i…”

“Has anything specific come up around sexuality with young black people in particular?”

“I will come on to you now, Dani. What additional safety concerns do black people face when sleeping rough, and why do you think that is?”

“Polly, how do other protected characteristics like gender, sexuality, disability and transgender identity affect a person’s experience of being black and homeless?”

“It is great to see so many people here at the Committee today who have an interest in this topic. Excuse me, I am struggling with my voice, as many of us are after Christmas. I will come to you first, Henri, if I may. Can you tell us broadly about the problems faced by young black homeless people?”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Efford. I thank the hon. Member for Wokingham (Clive Jones) for securing this debate. I pay tribute to my hon. Friend the Member for Birmingham Erdington (Paulette Hamilton) for all the valuable work she does in this space, and to everyone who has shared very person…”

“Many pupils have returned to cold school classrooms this week. That is why I am delighted that Kingsbury school, St Michael’s Church of England academy and All Saints Church of England academy in Bedworth, and Ash Green school, have all received funding to install solar panels. Will the Minister outline what support th…”

“3. What steps she is taking to help ensure that British Sugar agrees the terms of future sugar beet contracts with NFU Sugar.”

“A merry Christmas to you and all your staff, Mr Speaker. In the summer I visited Boultbees farm in Baxterley in my constituency, where I met Andrew and his team. Like all farmers who grow sugar beet, they are obliged to sell it to British Sugar, as the sole processor of British sugar beet in the UK. Common market organ…”

“For any victim of rape or sexual assault, to wait years for justice to be delivered is horrific. The mental toll on victims, who are unable to see their perpetrators have their day in court, is unimaginable. It is a stain on our justice system. Will the Solicitor General confirm that victims will be kept at the heart o…”

“My constituent Bryan Griffiths tells me that trail hunting in Warwickshire is often a smokescreen for illegal hunting, with devastating consequences for livestock. When will the Government start the consultation on the future of trail hunting?”

“A very merry Christmas to you, Madam Deputy Speaker. My constituent Sam is a fibre engineer. He spends his days climbing ladders, fixing lamp posts and repairing wi-fi for people across north Warwickshire. He has glycogen storage disease type Ia, which is a very rare liver disorder. Despite his GP and hospital consulta…”
