Speeches by Ribeiro-Addy.

“On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. On 25 September, I sent a letter to the Foreign Secretary that was signed by more than 80 Members of the House. It expressed our pressing concern for the safety of British citizens participating in the global sumud flotilla, a non-violent humanitarian mission trying to deliver…”

“My hon. Friend will be aware of the Global Sumud Flotilla, which is the largest maritime mission to Gaza and includes civilians from across the globe, two of whom are constituents of mine. This aid mission is entirely legal, non-violent and presents no threat to the Israeli Government or Israeli citizens. However, we h…”

“Those arrested were merely holding signs, wearing T-shirts and displaying general support for a group that does not come close to the loosest definition of terrorism. Meanwhile, political pundits and columnists seem free to discuss Palestine Action without fear of criminal prosecution. I do not think that anyone should…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Mr Pritchard. I, too, thank the Petitions Committee and my hon. Friend the Member for South Norfolk (Ben Goldsborough) for bringing forward this debate. When the Government introduced their immigration White Paper, they proposed increasing the standard qualifying period f…”

“Q6. This week, the Global Sumud flotilla, which includes British citizens, set sail for Gaza to break the illegal blockade and deliver much-needed aid. In June, a British boat, the Madleen, was threatened and its crew detained, but we took no action. Can the Prime Minister say what has been learned from this, and what …”

“I congratulate my hon. Friend on all the hard work he has done on this issue since he entered the House. As he was speaking, I thought to myself that in all the cases that have led to these discussions—Hillsborough, the infected blood scandal, nuclear test veterans, the Primodos scandal and countless others—the victims…”

“I really welcome the Bill’s efforts to strengthen communities and local democracy. However, I am worried that not enough is being done to protect private renters. In Lambeth, nearly a third of residents are renters. Rents are rising faster than wages, and the average renter is paying 72% more than the national average,…”

“In April, I raised the issue of the need for blood donations, and of people from diverse communities being turned away. In response to parliamentary questions about diversity and blood referrals, I initially received data, provided by NHS Blood and Transplant, stating that 70% of black blood donors were being turned aw…”

“How effective do both of you think Prevent is at identifying and addressing online extremist behaviour overall?”

“What trends are you seeing at the moment in how online spaces are used to spread and reinforce new forms of extremism?”

“There have been wide-ranging criticisms of Prevent overall, and I definitely take your point about people being more susceptible if there are things going on outside what they are seeing on their phone or computer. The question is more geared towards whether Prevent is equipped enough or is doing well enough at tacklin…”

“I will go to my next question about the link between the online and offline space, and this may feed into some of what you have pointed to in terms of incel culture. Do you think you can identify certain individuals who may be more susceptible to certain things online? Have you seen certain individuals being targeted b…”

“Thank you very much. You might be right, because if our search history as members of the Home Affairs Committee was to be looked at, we ourselves might be flagged. In that vein, do you think there might be way to future-proof against rapidly changing technologies when it comes to the way in which platforms are being en…”

“I have some further questions, but I might come back to them.”

“To follow on from that and some other remarks that you both made about perhaps not everything fitting into the box of Prevent, is there any evidence to suggest that, in the space where some people have lost their budgets, where some organisations that perhaps lean more towards social care and youth work have less fundi…”

“The Minister has made very clear exactly where the Bill will apply, but will he be clear about exactly who it will apply to? We have asked this question in different ways when talking about who we think will be disadvantaged, but can he be clear that those of British nationality who have no other claim to a nationality…”

“Further to the intervention by the right hon. Member for North West Hampshire (Kit Malthouse), is the hon. Member aware not only that Commonwealth countries allow people to claim citizenship from the birth of their parents or grandparents, but that some countries—notably Ghana and Kenya—specifically allow people to cla…”

“I rise simply to ask the Minister if he might publish the assessment. He has said continuously that the Bill is fair, but I want to impress upon him that it cannot possibly be fair that should such orders be brought about, they would impact me and not him. I do not think that is fair at all. I would also like the Minis…”

“I rise to speak in favour of amendment 1, in the name of the right hon. Member for North West Hampshire (Kit Malthouse), who is definitely on the other side of the House but who I am very much allied with in seeing the clear flaws in this Bill. Like him, I remain uncomfortable about the Bill as a whole, which I am sure…”

“Does the right hon. Gentleman agree that this whole notion of heritage is not even an exact science? My first black ancestor to be born in this country was born in 1806, in Twyford; I have no idea where that is, but I know it is not that far from here. He was the son of a formerly enslaved person and a white domestic s…”
