Speeches in the chamber
14 Apr 2026 Infected Blood Compensation Scheme
Does the Minister accept that although people co-infected with HIV and hepatitis C represent only around 7% of those on infected blood support schemes, they make up roughly 14% of those receiving special category support, because of the di…
23 Mar 2026 Court and Tribunal Transcripts
I completely agree with the hon. Gentleman’s points, and those of the victims whose voices he is bringing to the fore. Does he agree that both the proposals by the Government and the amendment to the Victims and Courts Bill that was agreed…
23 Mar 2026 Court and Tribunal Transcripts
In the spirit of cross-party consensus, I commend both the hon. Member on securing this debate and the hon. Member for Richmond Park (Sarah Olney) on her campaigning work in this area. Does he agree that for victims it is vital that they h…
10 Mar 2026 Courts and Tribunals Bill
I thank my hon. Friend. The third thing to say is that, for me, closure began after a successful civil process following the acquittal. My rapist may not be considered to have met the criminal threshold for guilt beyond all reasonable d…
10 Mar 2026 Courts and Tribunals Bill
I thought long and hard about speaking today. I will allow right hon. and hon. Members from the legal profession to make the legal arguments better than I can, and will allow Members who rightly have procedural or rights-based concerns for…
29 Jan 2026 Holocaust Memorial Day
I want to add my voice to my hon. Friend’s comments about the Mothers of Srebrenica and Žepa Enclaves association. I had the real honour of meeting them myself around a decade ago, and their work is absolutely extraordinary. Will my hon. F…
29 Jan 2026 Holocaust Memorial Day
I thank my hon. Friend for her intervention and share her thanks to the survivor she mentions, but I also send our thanks to that generation of survivors who were so determined to ensure that their stories were carried forward so that we c…
29 Jan 2026 Holocaust Memorial Day
The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2026 is “Bridging Generations”. That recognises that as the remaining survivors who can directly bear witness to the atrocities of the Holocaust pass away, living memory must become collective memory. A…
12 Jan 2026 Social Media: Non-consensual Sexual Deepfakes
While X as a platform, and indeed some parties in this place, seem content to profit from the proliferation of illegal sexually abusive content, this Government are meant to practise what we preach on online safety and violence against wom…
17 Nov 2025 Asylum Policy
Warrington has one of the largest communities of Hongkongers in the country, many of whom I met this weekend when they reiterated their profound concern that the British national overseas 5+1 scheme was at risk as a result of the Governmen…
17 Nov 2025 Small Modular Nuclear Reactor Power Station: Wylfa
Although this announcement is a welcome step forward for the SMR programme and the community on Anglesey, after suffering many broken promises and false starts, it is abundantly clear that the UK will not meet our future clean energy needs…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
I absolutely agree that more can be done without the need for a change in legislation, but it is concerning that the Home Office does not look at legislation. Despite everything that was said in the Home Affairs Committee’s inquiry on drug…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
I absolutely agree and I took a note from that report: “However, it was clear from the Minister’s evidence that the Home Office will not make legislative changes, even if the evaluation finds that the facility has been effective in meet…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
My hon. Friend is exactly right: Change Grow Live is a fantastic organisation. Multi-year funding schemes with clear outcome metrics, such as faster time for treatment, improved retention and improved naloxone coverage, will make a differe…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
My right hon. Friend is exactly right. The clearest way to recovery is with companionship and support—there is no path to recovery without that—and I of course give credit to the organisation she mentioned that is doing such fantastic work…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
I absolutely agree. Later, I will try to develop my argument for that kind of approach, which we could take here but do not. As a Parliament and as a society, we may have inadvertently come to accept the yearly statistics, and have perh…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
The number of drug deaths in Scotland is stark, and it underlines the fact that the issue affects every part of the UK. We know what we need to do to start addressing it. I welcome the recent Scottish Affairs Committee report, which I will…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
I thank the hon. Gentleman for his intervention; without it, it would not be an Adjournment debate. I completely agree. The deaths that I am talking about today are drug poisonings in England and Wales only, but if we look at drug deaths i…
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
I completely agree about the role that rehab facilities can play in supporting people into recovery, and about the need for proper, consistent funding from the Government.
5 Nov 2025 Drug-related Deaths
I absolutely agree. There are huge regional disparities in drug deaths across the country, and a regional approach need to be taken to tackling them. While I appreciate that drugs policy and legislation do not fall under the Minister’s …
