Further to that point of order, Mr Speaker. I agree with the hon. Member for Lichfield (Michael Fabricant) because, when I came in in 1992 as a new Member, the first thing I did was vote for a Speaker, without knowing any of the candidates in any detail whatsoever. But...

We are apparently approaching the season of good will, when we are supposed to have Christmas parties in our primary schools and wish each other season’s greetings. I hope that people who want a season of good will have not been watching these exchanges.

It is now clear that, instead of dying in a ditch, the Prime Minister has ditched the ditch. Is the Leader of the House aware of the problems that are going to be caused in many communities by having an election as late as 12 December in terms of dark...

The right hon. Member for Hemel Hempstead (Sir Mike Penning) mentioned the Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust in Romford. Queen’s Hospital in Romford is part of that trust, as is King George Hospital in my constituency. There is an independent treatment centre on the site of King...

I enjoy the knockabout that has been going on, but will the Secretary of State accept that the NHS reforms brought in by Andrew Lansley led to fragmentation, duplication and inefficiencies, which we are now trying to remedy by reconstructing and bringing groups together, as we are doing in north-east...

There is a further problem with teenagers when they reach the age of 18, because there is a gap between the CAMHS and adult services. Far too often, young people who have been given help when they are 16, 17 and 18 suddenly fall off the cliff and there is...

Let me begin by taking everybody back to the summer of 2012 and Danny Boyle’s fantastic ceremony at the start of the Olympic games. At that time, everybody was saying that the NHS was our secular religion, and in many senses that is true. It has been good to have...

That this House is concerned about the increasing risk of extinction to Asian elephants; notes that in India and South East Asia some Asian elephants are snatched from the wild when very young, deprived of food and water for months whilst tightly confined in cages, beaten and stabbed with iron hooks to break their spirits for easy use in tourism and tortured throughout their lives; further notes that these stressed animals sometimes attack and kill tourists; observes that such tourism is in part driven by companies advertising to the UK market; and calls on the Government to prohibit the advertising of elephant attractions other than genuine sanctuaries.

That this House notes the hard work of the taxi and private hire trade, and that some of the legislation which governs licensing in the industry is dated back to 1847; recognises that new technology and changing transport needs mean than the UK desperately needs updated legislation; notes that the Government's taxi and private hire Task and Finish Group report from 2018, steps towards a safer and more robust system calls for new legislation, and that the report's introduction by its Chair, Professor Mohammed Abdel-Haq, states that undue delay would risk public safety and that the onus falls on the Government to improve legislation; notes that the Queen's Speech omitted any mention of a taxi or private hire Bill; and calls on the Government to introduce new legislation as soon as possible to improve safety in the sector.

Every day, thousands of my constituents, many of whom are low paid, hard working and on zero-hours contracts— carers, cleaners, office workers—travel into London on the Jubilee line. This morning, many of them were disrupted and their lives very badly affected by a handful of extremist Extinction Rebellion idiots. This...

That this House notes with concern the mass protests in Iraq in October 2019 in response to corruption, unemployment, weak governance and unequal access to public services and the disproportionate response by Iraqi security forces to those protests, which resulted in more than 150 people being killed, thousands of people being injured and hundreds of people being detained; expresses concern about the fate of civil activist Dr Maitham Al-Helo, who was taken from his private surgery in West Baghdad by unidentified armed men and who has not been seen since; further notes with concern reports that security forces, including militia groups, fired tear gas and live rounds at demonstrators in Baghdad and several southern provinces, that some activists were savagely beaten and that a minority of demonstrators used violence; reiterates the UN’s message to the Iraqi authorities that the protestors’ demands are legitimate and that the Iraqi authorities should allow people to express their grievances in a peaceful way; urges the Iraqi Government to hold those responsible for the excessive use of force against the demonstrators and other human rights abuses to account and to address the demonstrators’ grievances, including by prioritising effective action to stamp out corruption, which has permeated Iraqi politics and society, and by re-examining the power-sharing quota system; and calls on the UK Government to support the Iraqi authorities and people to comply with the international human rights framework to help prevent instability and violence in that country.

President Erdoğan has long planned this attack. There have been proposals to put millions of people—refugees who are in Turkey—across that border. The American Administration, by
giving a green light, have destroyed the credibility of their international alliances; strengthened autocrats, demagogues and dictators, including Putin, Assad and the Iranians; and...
