Speeches by Ghani.

“Order. “You didn’t”—you are talking through the Chair. Please ask a quick question as there remain colleagues who hope to contribute.”

“I call Dr Ben Spencer to ask the final question.”

“Order. I call the Home Secretary.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“Order. I urge colleagues to keep their questions short and the Foreign Secretary to keep his answers short.”

“I call the Father of the House.”

“Order. We have only another 15 minutes to go, so long questions are just taking away time from other colleagues.”

“Order. I appreciate how sensitive the topic is, but longer questions mean that fewer colleagues will get in. Shorter answers from the Secretary of State will help as well.”

“I call the Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee.”

“I call the shadow Foreign Secretary.”

“As Mr Speaker has already mentioned, in order for everybody to get in—well, in order for most to get in—we need speeches to be shy of six minutes, and interventions to be short. I call Gregory Stafford.”

“Order. Before an intervention is taken, may I put it on the record that Members should not be wandering into the Chamber and then very quickly making an intervention? Lots of Members are waiting to speak and to make interventions. Is that the case? Have you been in the Chamber for a while?”

“indicated assent.”

“I have no doubt that if the right hon. Member gives the hon. Member for Gosport (Dame Caroline Dinenage) a moment, she will address it quickly, because even Members who are contributing do not have long.”

“Okay, go on.”

“Order. Before Dr Spencer resumes, I note that this has been a well-tempered debate. Let us keep it so. We know our constituents are watching.”

“Order. The hon. Lady has made it clear that she is not taking interventions at this time.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”

“Order. I think the right hon. Member for Hayes and Harlington (John McDonnell) needs to respond to the first intervention. I appreciate what is happening, though, and he may wish to take the second intervention shortly afterwards.”

“Order. We will not get everybody in unless I drop the time limit again down to two minutes.”
