Speeches by Taylor.

“Growing our relationship with China could boost our motor manufacturing industry. The Prime Minister will know only too well that small businesses in this sector are the engine of economic growth in my constituency and right across the west midlands. Can he set out how his visit will help small businesses in North Warw…”

“That is helpful; thank you.”

“Has any research been done on the sexual orientation of egg donors?”

“Is that something that we should be looking at?”

“Is there any evidence about what motivates different demographics of donors to donate?”

“As opposed to young women who might be working in the local pub .”

“So there is no particular evidence of higher education students being targeted—”

“Petra, is there anything you want to add on the class or educational background of donors?”

“I am going to ask about the demographics of donors. You have already touched a little on the age of most donors, but what else do we know about the demographics of donors, such as their income, ethnicity and education?”

“Bedworth in my constituency hosts the largest armistice parade in Britain. It is truly the town that never forgets. Today I want to pay tribute to all the veterans across North Warwickshire and Bedworth, especially those who lost their lives in Afghanistan, including Sergeant Simon Valentine. When I speak to people acr…”

“Does my hon. Friend agree that the armed forces covenant is so important across all our local authority services?

“Might I recommend that the hon. Lady’s husband regularly run parkrun with the Minister? It may get him up to a level of fitness nearing the Minister’s.”

“My hon. Friend is a fantastic advocate for animals and for the people in her constituency, and I am grateful that she secured this debate. I want to thank all my constituents who have written to me to advocate for animals. We are clearly a nation of animal lovers. Last year, I wrote to the Government to request a ban o…”

“5. What steps she is taking with Cabinet colleagues to help reduce the cost of living in Wales.”

“The latest interest rate cut—the sixth since Labour formed this Government—is great news for mortgage holders in Wales, North Warwickshire and Bedworth and across the UK, bringing down the cost of family mortgages by almost £1,400 a year. Will the Secretary of State update the House on how this Government’s policies ar…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for securing this really important debate. Last year, a number of constituents contacted me because they were similarly concerned that Coventry and Warwickshire ICB decided to pause new ADHD referrals for those 25 and over so that it could prioritise children on its waiting list, which was at a r…”

“11. What steps her Department is taking to help improve the governance of academy trusts.”

“Financial mismanagement by the Arthur Terry Learning Partnership trust has led to disputes with the National Education Union and, currently, strikes, which is disrupting the learning of students across the west midlands, including at the Coleshill school and Curdworth primary school in my constituency. What steps is th…”

“Have you seen patterns emerge in recent years, in terms of funding community sport?”
