Belfast: Violent Disorder

I thank the hon. Member for Belfast South and Mid Down (Claire Hanna) for her urgent question. People in this House and beyond, including from Moscow, are whipping up hate and disorder in our country, and what happened last night in Northern Ireland was a sickening example of that. Children nearly died. All of us in th

Yes, I totally understand the risk-averse local authority position on local authority pilots. While I personally feel it might be a good solution, I have discussed with social providers, who operate at arm’s length to local authorities, which may be a way through that. I do not know whether you have considered that.

Milburn Review: Interim Report

I have just had a group of year 8 pupils visit me in Parliament, and many of their questions were about the increasing numbers of young people on benefits, AI sweeping away jobs, and new opportunities and training for young people. The red wall MPs recognise that issues surrounding youth unemployment are not new, but I

19 May 2026Home Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 37)

Thank you so much for coming to see us today. I am going to ask a question about the very beginning of the process. At the time, there was a lot of controversy, particularly with the survivors, about who should chair and run the panel. Two people had been appointed and then they resigned.

The most controversial and sensitive issues are those relating to ethnicity, culture and religion in terms of both the perpetrators and the victims. There is also the absence of data. How do you think you will be tackling those issues? That is what a lot of people will be focusing on.

I thank my hon. Friend for bringing this debate to the House. It is not just Doncaster that is impacted by this issue, because Doncaster and Bassetlaw teaching hospitals NHS foundation trust stretches right across Bassetlaw.

I am concerned about the link between loss of hearing and dementia. If somebody who is experiencing hearing loss goes down that horrible path of dementia and loss of memory, the lack of communication can spiral and make their condition explode.
