Proceeding contribution from Jeffrey M Donaldson (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 March 2022. It occurred during Opposition day on National Insurance Contributions Increase.


National Insurance Contributions Increase

On a point of order, Mr Speaker. We commend President Zelensky and the people of Ukraine and we stand with them in this their time of strife, but our response will not be judged by the volume or strength of our applause for President Zelensky. It will be judged by the volume and strength of our response to his request for help—for practical military support and for humanitarian assistance for the people of Ukraine. We pray for their success. We dare not let them down.
