Speeches by Murphy.

“I welcome the NHS modernisation Bill as the next step in improving our NHS. When I was elected as the Member for Basingstoke, access to GPs, dentists and mental health services was not good enough. There were unacceptably long waits for elective care and at A&E, poor conditions of our hospital building and an overs…”

“T6. Basingstoke is home to a number of vibrant and successful cadet forces—air, Army and sea cadets, as a well as a number of combined cadet forces at the Costello and Vyne schools. Will the Minister join me in paying tribute to those fantastic cadet forces, set out what she and the Government are doing to support them…”

“I welcome the Chancellor’s statement and the announcements made by her and the Energy Secretary. We have seen two fossil fuel shocks in just the past five years, which have done untold damage to our economy. Half the recessions since the 1970s have been caused by similar fossil fuel shocks. It is clear that the move to…”

“To extend the discussion slightly to something you have alluded to but have not gone into in much detail, Dr Pill, in combination with this new modelling, you also view other changes around immigration, tax and regulation as a cumulative effect. The quote in the FT was that “We should worry more” about wage pressures a…”

“I am grateful to the Chancellor for her statement, and in particular for setting out the long list of interventions this Government have made on the cost of living, which stands in stark contrast to the record of the Conservatives, who left behind the worst legacy on living standards in a generation. Can the Chancellor…”

“I, too, celebrate the achievements under the previous Government. Why, then, given that those achievements came about under the framework of the Climate Change Act, which was then recognised internationally and led to progress elsewhere, are you now going to throw that framework in the bin?”

“Apologies, Madam Deputy Speaker. Why is the hon. Member and her party proposing to throw out the framework that underpinned all the achievements that she is listing?”

“I fully agree with the hon. Member. I will say more about the impact on future generations later, but as she says, the burden will weigh heaviest on them if we do not take action today. In my constituency of Basingstoke, we have already seen the reality of our changing climate, with more than 500 heat-related deaths in…”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered the UK’s progress towards achieving the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. I thank the Backbench Business Committee for granting time for this important debate. I am also grateful to the members of the all-party parliamentary group on climate change—of …”

“I thank the hon. Member for his intervention. I do not know the circumstances of that particular issue, but I agree that renewable energy companies, like all companies, should act in the public interest. Those who actively oppose the transition to clean energy, such as Reform, prefer instead to expose every family, bus…”

“Like my hon. Friend, I am so pleased when I get letters from children at schools in Basingstoke. I am able to tell them about the Government’s ambitious plans and their commitment to an issue that so many children are concerned about. The Government have taken action. Great British Energy is rolling out solar in school…”

“I thank the Backbench Business Committee for granting the debate, and all colleagues who contributed. There was broad agreement that it is important to make progress on tackling climate change, not least because it means progress on economic growth, on living standards, on delivering national security, and on leaving a…”

“I completely agree. If my hon. Friend will forgive the pun, the land use framework is a landmark document. It reflects the Government’s acknowledgement that the public understand many of the threats that we face and want to see climate action. Polling shows that 70% of the British public say that tackling climate chang…”

“Do you think that the exclusion of merchant-owned products sensible?”

“Just moving on to crypto-asset activities coming into the perimeter, what is that going to mean for the service?”

“There will be consumers for whom the regulatory perimeter was not in place when they had the issues that they are coming to you for. Do you have a strategy for dealing with those? There is going to be quite a lot of those accumulated. How is your set-up going to triage those to ensure that you are focusing on those who…”

“If you are a consumer and you have taken out one of these products through a merchant-owned avenue versus a third party, is it going to make intuitive sense as to why you can cover one but not the other?”

“The gateway opens in September, but you have not incorporated any estimates into the current 2026-27 budget. Is that sensible?”

“Buy now, pay later issues are coming into your regulatory perimeter from July 2026. You are expecting 2,000 cases. I believe that was the statement made. Is that just in that year? Is it per year in future?”

“Do you have estimates for how it might look in the trajectory following?”
