| 29 Oct 2024 | Great British Energy Bill “I do not agree with all the assertions that the right hon. Member makes, but the duty is intended precisely to ensure that every single project would have a positive impact on nature. Under new clause 3, they would all be renewable projects. The nature recovery duty under new clause 2 would help GB Energy invest only i…” energyeconomy-jobsenvironment | 314 |
| 23 Oct 2024 | Black History Month “I absolutely agree with the hon. Member about education. As for his point about reparations, the echoes of this injustice will not simply fade away; we need to talk about it and take action. Let me end by talking about one more injustice. Jay Abatan was murdered in Brighton outside a nightclub in January 1999. No one h…” culture-community | 182 |
| 23 Oct 2024 | Black History Month “I am grateful to be called to speak in this debate. Like others, I thank the Minister for her commitment to further action on redress for the Windrush scandal. I also commend the Commonwealth nations, which are making sure that there is a conversation internationally about redress and action on reparations for the tran…” culture-community | 921 |
| 20 Oct 2024 | Policing “I thank the Minister for her answers. We have seen a toxic culture in some police services, including WhatsApp messages that are racist, homophobic and sexist, displaying deep prejudice. Will she clarify when the multiple recommendations from the Home Office review into the process of police officer dismissals will be …” crimelocal-government | 66 |
| 20 Oct 2024 | Policing “14. What steps she is taking to monitor and maintain standards of police conduct.” crimelocal-government | 14 |
| 9 Oct 2024 | Topical Questions “T6. Has the Minister’s capital portfolio review properly considered the health, social and equalities aspects of value for money, and will it therefore recommend cancelling more road building schemes from the previous Government in favour of a real long-term boost to local authority active travel funding?” transporteconomy-jobs | 46 |
| 8 Oct 2024 | Renters’ Rights Bill “I endorse all my hon. Friend’s comments, particularly on the need for rent controls. In my constituency of Brighton, I have a very high population of renters, including myself. I have only ever been a private renter since leaving home over 30 years ago. My constituency has many young people and students renting, and my…” housinglocal-government | 103 |
| 9 Sept 2024 | Topical Questions “T9. The harm done to families and women by incarcerating women is huge and made worse when they do not have safe homes after they leave. Some 47% of women are currently leaving prison without settled accommodation. This breaks up families and leaves them at risk of further exploitation and harm, often the same exploita…” crimesocial-care | 97 |
| 8 Sept 2024 | Medicines “Alongside hon. Members who have spoken on behalf of other parties, I welcome the changes. Naloxone saves lives: it brings people back from one of the most final and, in many cases, fatal mistakes they can make. This is a really important change to make, but I hope that the regulations will be kept more closely and cont…” healthsocial-care | 429 |
| 3 Sept 2024 | Grenfell Tower Inquiry Phase 2 Report “I thank the Prime Minister for his very serious and compassionate statement. The events of June 2017 feel like yesterday. Although I cannot imagine how the people directly affected are feeling right now, we must act in every way we can, and we must act together as much as possible. However, I note that the inquiry’s re…” housingcrimelocal-government | 170 |
| 2 Sept 2024 | Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) Bill “The Greens are not agnostic on privatisation. We very much support the principle of the Bill and look forward to its progress. I want to make a short speech on amendments 2 to 5, which I tabled. They are very simple and common sense; their goal is to leave open the opportunity for elected devolved bodies to set up comp…” transporteconomy-jobsfiscal-policy | 248 |
| 1 Sept 2024 | Violent Disorder “The ugly, racist mob violence in our towns and cities this summer was incited and organised by far-right groups, often using electronic platforms including Telegram and X. For example, on Telegram, groups have distributed instructions for making petrol bombs. Locations of hotels housing migrants and offices of immigrat…” crimeimmigrationtechnology | 109 |
| 28 Jul 2024 | Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) Bill “I thank all the Members who have given their maiden speeches. It was moving to hear all of them, particularly the hon. Member for Hertford and Stortford (Josh Dean). I am making a note of everybody who mentions youth services, and he did some very good advocacy: he is on my list. It is great to be speaking on my first …” transporteconomy-jobs | 1,362 |
| 16 Jul 2024 | Debate on the Address “Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker, for calling me. I congratulate the hon. Members for Moray West, Nairn and Strathspey (Graham Leadbitter), for Bolton North East (Kirith Entwistle), for Wolverhampton West (Warinder Juss) and for Southport (Patrick Hurley) on making excellent maiden speeches today. I am so honoured to be he…” economy-jobshousinghealth | 1,116 |
