I seem to remember that Miss Sturgeon spoke of the gold standard of referendums, and I do not think that gold has tarnished.


Alton, David

Watson, Michael Goodall

Why not demonstrate that as effectively as possible by both assembling and publishing the information mentioned in Amendment 2?

Butler, Paul

“We need to recognise both the glorious possibilities of digital and its profound brokenness”


Blackman, Kirsty Ann

I have spoken to people previously about why they should dislike the House of Lords.


Dromey, John Eugene Joseph

So the police and the council can do more, but the Government must accept that they cannot work miracles.


Hayter, Dianne

Secondly, to rely on parti pris campaigns, with no requirement for honestly, objectivity or fairness, is the very worst way of providing clear, unbiased information.

Friend the Member for Salisbury, many of the major charities involved in the taskforce have told me that much of it is about working smarter.


Eady, Roger Mynors Swinfen

My Lords, how many cases have been referred to the police or other investigative organisations to be looked into?


Bew, Paul Anthony Elliott

This cost is proportionately far more than the historical aspects of the Bloody Sunday inquiry, which is reputed to be so highly expensive.


Blackford, Ian

That is the difference between the attitude of our friends and colleagues in Europe and the disdain that our Scottish Government have been shown by Westminster.


Desai, Meghnad

She has managed all this time by feigning to be a weak, indecisive person, and she has lasted longer than any of her colleagues.

Wills, Michael

I am grateful to the noble Lord for that characteristically energetic and vivacious intervention, but we have to make policy on the basis of the evidence available to us.

One has to wonder what she has done to earn such a poisoned chalice.


O’Shaughnessy, James

That is the Government’s commitment to our NHS, and I commend this Statement to the House” My Lords, that concludes the Statement.


Davies, Philip Andrew

Does the Chancellor agree that there is no painless way out of huge debt and that people would do well to remember that before they ever elect a free-spending Labour Government again?

Rashid, Mian Faisal

It is nowhere near good enough Finally, young people have a pivotal role to play in defeating new forms of racism.

—the Europeans understood from our making such preparations that we really were resolved to leave in earnest.


Bryant, Christopher John

It is not about the Government deciding everything because they have managed to take it all by winning, but about government by consent and the sovereignty of Parliament.

It was not until the EU acted that the mobile companies got rid of the dreaded mobile roaming charges.


Qureshi, Yasmin

McAvoy, Thomas McLaughlin

If the Minister is also agreeable to it, I suggest that we include the noble Lords, Lord Low of Dalston and Lord Holmes of Richmond, in that meeting.


Jolly, Judith Anne

Combined with some specific easing over the festive period and adjustments to policies on support bubbles, this has the potential to be confusing, to say the least.

It is scandalous that at present only a minority of his recommendations in some cases are taken up.


Lamont, Norman Stewart Hughson

A few months later it had been revised out of existence by the statisticians.

Brady, Graham Stuart

There is a greater willingness for some to tolerate attacks on Jewish people.

Clark, Gregory David

I do not have the power, still less the inclination, to force local people into any arrangements other than those for which they are enthusiastic.


Prasher, Usha Kumari

Such guardians should be appointed as early as possible and provide a single, trusted point of contact throughout the legal proceedings.


Rayner, Angela

Years since the Prime Minister promised to tackle the burning injustices, and just weeks before she is due to leave office, they burn brighter than ever before.


Thornton, Dorothea Glenys

Therefore, I hope that the Minister will be as agreeable about this amendment as he was about the last one.


Maclean, David John

It is a golf ball-sized object made of 90% platinum and 10% iridium and is regarded as the most perfect object to define its weight because of its stability.


Quince, William James

That was not the case under the previous legacy system DWP Ministers always listen and act on feedback.


Tyler, Claire

It is fair to say that it was a highly charged and contentious piece of legislation.


Mackrory, Cherilyn

It is a privilege to be married to a fisherman, because it gives a great understanding of what a scary but wholesome living it is.


Bone, Peter William

Member for Hornsey and Wood Green (Catherine West), who speaks with total sincerity.


Villiers, Theresa Anne

I agree with him that everyone in Northern Ireland should join the widow in this case and condemn that horrific and brutal murder.


Bew, Paul Anthony Elliott

Lords will be amazed, but everybody who works in universities knows that what I am saying is true.

The National Poisons Information Service collects new drugs but does not collect data on all drug- related overdoes.


Hunt, Jeremy Richard Streynsham

We will continue to keep screening and logistical arrangements under review and look to improve or strengthen the process, as guided by expert clinical advice.


Grocott, Bruce Joseph

I hope that one or two contributions do not receive a wider audience, because essentially what is happening now is a filibuster on a Bill which had overwhelming support at Second Reading.


Ahmad Khan, Imran Nasir

Labour’s deficit, which we inherited, was a stunning £153.1 billion.


Bowie, Andrew Campbell

Lady for her intervention, but my figures were from the Scottish Parliament Information Centre, and that is a Parliament oft quoted by SNP Members.

Dykes, Hugh

Should the Leader of the House not be more enthusiastic about the slogan cited by the noble Baroness, Lady Ludford?

It follows a disturbing pattern of regulations and guidance coming far too late, with too little scrutiny.


Ali, Rushanara

Time and again, when Ministers have heard the anguished cries of people in this situation, they have offered no solace.


Moylan, Daniel

So we should really be rejoicing at this statutory instrument which, for the first time, is wholly devoted to abolishing a whole range of EU laws—clause after clause.


Huq, Rupa Asha

So that one deal has to be put to the people—to the electorate—for endorsement as to whether they think it is a good one.


Tarry, Samuel Peter

Yet we found too often, time and again, that frontline workers were sent into the firing line, despite being ill-equipped and despite being in vulnerable categories.


McGovern, Alison

They have made compelling arguments, and I sincerely hope that the Minister will listen Other very good arguments have been made in this debate.


Hamilton, Archibald Gavin

Does he accept that this is largely to do with the overreaction of European Governments, including our own, to the diesel emissions scandal, which was started by Volkswagen in Germany?


Baldwin, Harriett Mary Morison

That is why we are strongly backing Martin Griffiths, the new special envoy for the peace process in Yemen.


Ahmad, Tariq

We are pressing for confirmation of Aung San Suu Kyi’s safety, the urgent release of civilian leaders and the peaceful reconvening of the national assembly.


McDonald, Stuart Campbell

The disastrous impact of the hostile environment—essentially a half-baked, back-door ID card—does not start or end there.


Thornton, Dorothea Glenys

Hopefully, we can then start building a sustainable system for the future.


Keen, Richard

It was not appropriate that she should give a knee-jerk reaction to sensationalist headlines.


Turnberg, Leslie Arnold

However, there are many problems, too, because while we may be good at research, we are too often sluggish in taking up innovations.


Wishart, Peter

If people were getting beaten up for voting and ballot boxes were being confiscated anywhere else in the world, the Government would be indignant and a Minister would race to the Chamber.

The noble Baroness, Lady Nicholson of Winterbourne, is on record as having consistently opposed LGBT equality since 1994.


Champion, Sarah Deborah

Part of the solution must be to support parents to feel confident in understanding the dangers posed by the internet.

It is unlikely that the family has become more industrious or more intelligent as time has gone on.


Watson, Thomas Anthony

To the people of Staffordshire, he was not just a sporting hero but a community hero.


Smith, Angela

Instead, she chose to go it alone, with a predictable rejection, although the scale of that rejection was astounding Time is now running out.


Wallace, William John Lawrence

Then there is the transition from school to work which this excellent report is about.


Meyer, Catherine

I find that a lot of Europeans are very disillusioned with the European Union and feel very remote from its government.


Liddell-Grainger, Ian Richard Peregrine

Avon and Somerset police and its commissioner have been trumpeting Operation Remedy, which claims to make 100 extra officers available to fight drug dealers.

However, the Prime Minister’s visit just over two years ago made a dramatic breakthrough.


Atkins, Victoria

Chalk, Alexander John Gervase

I am delighted that the settlement scheme is progressing at pace, with 2 million or so people signing up.

Benyon, Richard

They need look no further than Darayya on 12 May, where a humanitarian convoy was prevented from entering the town to save the lives of starving children.


McColl, Ian

However, unless we address the demand, for each person who is assisted out of crisis, another will take their place.


Wallace, James

The noble Lord, Lord McAvoy, reflected that when he referred to the speech made by Mrs Margaret Curran in the other place.


Donelan, Michelle Emma May Elizabeth

That is the story of the strongest, most no-nonsense woman I have ever met in my life.


Anderson, David

Instead, they have shut the door and want to carry on the dodgy deals.


Bates, Michael

The explanation is quite lengthy, so perhaps I might put it in writing to the noble Baroness, Lady Doocey, and copy it to other interested Members.


Evans, Natalie

The amendment requires that that report includes information about persons to whom contracts for carrying out the works have been awarded, particularly their size and the areas in which they operate.


May, Theresa Mary

But so far there has clearly not been any consensus across the House for any alternative arrangement.


Young, George

We have a strong legislative framework to tackle hate crime, including offences of inciting racial and religious hatred, and racial and religiously aggravated offences.


Churchill, Johanna Peta

Member for Leicester West (Liz Kendall) said, most of us want a hug.


Sweeney, Paul John

I must say that the Foreign Secretary is looking rather sprightly this morning after his overnight flight.


Foster, Kevin John

I welcome the tone of the Secretary of State’s statement, even though its contents will be devastating for many people and families across my constituency.


Smith, Alyn Edward

But what hurts—I would like some response on this—is that the Chancellor said that no one will be left behind.


Brennan, Kevin Denis

I wish him well, and thank him for the hard work and passion that he brought to his role.


Gillan, Cheryl Elise Kendall

Member for Rhondda (Chris Bryant) sent me a message hoping that I would vote for the amendment in the names of my hon.


Hain, Peter

As Willis Towers Watson has written, “it is only if the funding health suffers very materially that the headroom could run out and pensions would be reduced …


Gardiner, John Eric

I was very alarmed to hear that 70% of food and drink waste comes from households.


Betts, Clive James Charles

In the interests of transparency, may I say that the Select Committee has not considered this matter?


Patel, Narendra Babubhai

She ended her brilliant speech by presenting the evidence why the Brompton is so important and should not be closed.


Murphy, Paul

It is quite interesting that the war began with enormous enthusiasm and euphoria.


Judge, Igor

There was nothing in it except for regulations or regulation-making powers I take these figures from The Devil is in the Detail, a marvellous book by the Hansard Society.


Wilson, Samuel

In effect, that is what her amendment says I am even more amazed that any representative from Northern Ireland dares to put their name to that amendment.


Cunningham, Alexander

I am pleased to see the Minister smiling, and I hope that he can leave me smiling as well.


Pincher, Christopher John

That right will support regeneration by delivering additional homes and redeveloping vacant, unused and unloved brownfield sites, which blight local communities.


Gibb, Nicolas John

We are also rolling out schemes such as the English hubs that I mentioned, which ensure that we spread best practice in the teaching of reading.


Hancock, Matthew John David

That problem is indeed temporary and it is being resolved, very much thanks to the hard work of the new MP for Milton Keynes.


Oates, Jonathan

how Governments can strengthen their ability to get hold of their own resources through strengthened tax collection systems.


Cormack, Patrick

I hope that this debate will be brief, and unanimous that on this issue, in those immortal words, “something must be done”.


Mendelsohn, Jonathan

We have been far too relaxed over the decline in manufacturing and we are suffering the consequences


Cottrell, Stephen

What we have started to do with adults and families we must urgently do with unaccompanied refugee children.


Bew, Paul Anthony Elliott

So why do we suddenly believe that an issue that characteristically we have been stuck on in this country will be resolved in five weeks?


Sunderland, James

Everyone has a role, and no one should feel ashamed of who they are.


Hoey, Kate

I was very disappointed when another constituent of mine, Joanna Lumley, who I have huge admiration for, at various times almost disparaged people who had genuine objections


Patel, Priti Sushil

They took a bold and brave decision to instruct us Members of Parliament, in this House and throughout the country, to take a new and different path.


Tyler, Paul

I think I am right that the then Conservative candidate for Tavistock, my neighbouring constituency, was none other than a very young, sprightly Conservative called Michael Heseltine.


Lefroy, Jeremy John Elton

Does he agree that he saw there the importance of small accident and emergency departments sustaining the whole of the regional health economy by giving support to the larger ones?


Even more frightening is the fact that the causes of 46% of stillbirths are unknown.

Sherratt (Sandbach), Antoinette Geraldine


Callanan, Martin

My Lords, it is a privilege and pleasure to open the second day of debate on Her Majesty’s most gracious Speech.


Jackson, Stewart James

Surely the Minister can understand the sense of a missed opportunity, regret and disappointment at this suboptimal draft agreement.


Stewart, Iain Aitken

Member for Belfast North, he is not saying that they are incapable of doing that


Thornberry, Emily

It takes me back, finally, to my opening remarks about the end of the battle of Rzhev and to remember a time when we stood as allies with the Russian people.


Smith, Angela

We have to ask: is the overreaction to the tax credits vote symptomatic of the Government’s attitude to scrutiny and challenge?


Benjamin, Floella

What are the Government’s plans to get these regulations’ messages out to this group of vulnerable people to protect and reassure them?


Cherry, Joanna Catherine

This young man has not been found guilty of anything, and that is how he is being treated.


Jones, Susan Elan

Many of us are very concerned, however, about the slashing of funding for the Access for All programme by 42%.


Mann, John

It is like the Geoffrey Boycott fan club, all on the way to the test match at Headingley to support England who are taking on New Zealand on Friday.


Hancock, Matthew John David

I am really grateful to the schools that have been involved so far for the enthusiasm that they have shown and for the extra effort they have put into making this work.


Hoyle, Lindsay Harvey

This allows for some certainty as to what might constitute public knowledge of previous conduct.


Jenkin, Bernard Christison

Gentleman is right to make comparisons with other countries that do things better.


Brown, Alan

Clause 31(1) actually begins, “The Treasury may make”, which is hardly a ringing endorsement of the commitment to devolve that matter.


Webb, Suzanne

I am thankful we have Andy Street as the Mayor of the west midlands, who has already said that he will not accept a public and drawn-out negotiation with the Government.


Bragg, Melvyn

The news struggles with impartiality and the delicate task of balancing what are often rather overheated and undercooked arguments but it is still walking the tightrope admirably.


Stewart, Roderick James Nugent

That is as it should be, because domestic burglary is a particularly disgusting and uncivilised crime, and society should be making a symbolic statement against it.


MacNeil, Angus Brendan

Imagine the moment of elation when the loved ones were finally reunited in the UK; just hours before, they had been separated by thousands of miles and hundreds of bombs.


Mitchell, Andrew John Bower

If the Committee of Selection were to approve that next Wednesday, would it be possible for the Bill Committee to meet, albeit briefly, on 27 January?


Hoare, Simon James

Friend agree that the way in which councils organise themselves is also important to ensure the maximum bang for the taxpayers’ buck?

I often receive complaints about shouting, swearing, drinking, drug-taking and threats of violence in those properties.

Frankly, I hope that we can treat his comments with the derision that they deserve.


Davies, Geraint Richard

Diesel particulates cause, rather than just exacerbate, asthma because they cause an allergic reaction and cell mutation in the lungs.


Garnier, Edward

Nor should we go around lowering the threshold in order to scoop up innocent people.


Fysh, Marcus John Hudson

The Bill’s proposal to reduce the liability that the trustees can face is a positive step, because no one wants to be sued by the Americans.


Jones, Jennifer

My Lords, the classic comedy, “Yes Minister” has a running joke.


Bhattacharyya, Sushantha

We have had enough White Papers; perhaps it is time for a little bit of white heat.


Long-Bailey, Rebecca

In conclusion, although I applaud much of the FCA’s work and many of its achievements to date, the issues raised today ring some very loud alarm bells.


Cox, Caroline Anne

The situation has worsened devastatingly since the crisis was highlighted in the medical journal, the Lancet, in May 2015:


Hunt, Jeremy Richard Streynsham

It adds up because we are putting an extra £10 billion, in real terms, into the NHS over the course of this Parliament.


Keen, Richard

The Damages Act 1996 does not specify when the rate should be reviewed.


Berridge, Elizabeth Rose

The Prime Minister addressed an event of black Christians from the Redeemed Christian Church of God at the invitation of their leader pastor Agu Irukwu.


Ribeiro-Addy, Bellavia Janet

The Government’s commitments on EU nationals’ rights are meaningless if not underpinned by primary legislation and if they are not granted automatic settled status.

Blenkinsop, Tom

The chief constable of Northumbria police has dismissed the idea that Britain’s exit from the EU would lead to a reduction in the number of foreign criminals operating in the UK.


Lewis, Brandon Kenneth

We look to see that continue and strengthen as we look outward as a global country while we leave the European Union.


Phillipson, Bridget Maeve

I am aware that time is short, so I will not repeat her questions, but I note that, sadly, none of them was answered These are not new concerns.


Goldie, Annabel

But we need to continue with our negotiations to fine tune that, and hopefully then reduce it all to the final agreement.


Blackford, Ian

They are obsessed with only one thing: winning and delivering their Brexit fantasy at any cost


Blackman, Robert John

In various ways, they are closely linked with problems concerning freedom of religion or belief.


Griffiths, Leslie John

Almost all the Answers to the Written Questions gathered together at the end of the excellent briefing from the Library begin with a sentence that damns this whole process.


Hancock, Matthew John David

I pay tribute to Man Talk, to Offload Rugby League Cares and to all those who are working to support the mental health of others during this difficult crisis.


Zahawi, Nadhim

Traditional and more enlightened forms have been rejected, leading to more aggression and intolerance.


Villiers, Theresa Anne

It will consist not only of the NCA, Border Force, the immigration service and HMRC, but of the Irish Revenue Commissioners and the Criminal Assets Bureau.


Shapps, Grant

I absolutely agree with her, as a passionate supporter of aviation, and indeed a qualified pilot, about the importance of the industry.


Lang, Ian Bruce

Stevenson, Robert

It is complicated by the fact that I also, stupidly, pay my children’s bills.


Madders, Justin Piers Richard

May we please have a debate on the continuing north-south divide, before the northern powerhouse goes the way of the big society and hug a hoodie?


Onwurah, Chinyelu Susan

It is eager to expand and exploit the new market opportunities offered by the lithium-ion technology revolution, and it has the knowledge to do so.


Glen, John Philip

There has been a constructive discussion today, and it is important to highlight the value of the co-operative and mutual sector, both to the House and the public.


Jones, Andrew Hanson

We will take forward a recommendation in the guidance supporting the Bill that authorities ensure that information is made available to passengers.


Jenrick, Robert Edward

It means pulling out all the stops to deliver 1 million homes over this Parliament and nurturing places that inspire pride and a strong sense of belonging.


Turner, Karl

I declare an interest as a loyal member of the Rail, Maritime and Transport parliamentary group in this House.


Livermore, Spencer

The verdict of the referendum has now become so distorted as to be unrecognisable.


Rayner, Angela

I thank the Secretary of State for advance notice and sight of his statement.


Cherry, Joanna Catherine

That is why I was so puzzled, and perhaps expressed my puzzlement in terms that were unparliamentary I want to know.


Boateng, Paul Yaw

Are these resources to be made available to the high commission in Cameroon?


Mayhew, Jerome Patrick Burke

It is a hackneyed cliché that justice delayed is justice denied—denied for the victim, for witnesses and for the accused, many of whom may be innocent.
