Speeches by Wrighting.

“Minister Eagle, who should lead the export drive work for GCAP Tempest?”

“Which Department should lead that work?”

“The Conservatives left a £22 billion hole in our public finances and they continue to oppose every decision made by the Chancellor to clean up their mess. Can the Chancellor tell us how things would look now if the Conservatives had their way?”

“As we know, Asia is digitalising fast. What opportunities do you think exist for the UK to integrate digital trade frameworks to strengthen its economic ties with the region?”

“In Kettering, we know the scale of the challenge facing NHS dentistry after 14 years of Tory failure. My constituents regularly tell me how impossible it is to get an appointment. Some are driving tens of miles to see a dentist, and it is simply a scandal how many children are admitted to hospital with tooth decay. Whi…”

“This Government have made a solid commitment to make work pay and put more money into working people’s pockets. In my constituency, we have a large number of distribution jobs, and as a result of this Government’s actions, people in Kettering on the minimum wage will have more money in their pockets to last them throug…”

“On the back of that, what steps do you think should be taken to balance market growth with fair trade practices and consumer protection in regulating e-commerce platforms like AliExpress, Shein, Temu in the light of increasing volume of small-value imports?”

“2. What assessment his Department has made of the adequacy of access to NHS dental services.”

“Mr Humphreys, to back to your point where you said they will be choosing a path, do you have concerns about data centres, like US and China data centres, in close proximity in south Asian countries?”

“My hon. Friend is making a powerful speech. He and I are constituency neighbours. As he will know, there has been a lot of growth in Northamptonshire and increased distribution in the area, so the Government new clause will make a massive difference to our constituents.”

“I thank my hon. Friend for those really kind comments. The things I see on my screen also translate to real life. When I walk back to my flat tonight, I will not have my headphones on, so I can hear if someone is following me. When I go out with my friends, I will not put my drink down, because I am worried I might be …”

“I rise today as the youngest woman in Parliament and the first woman to represent my constituency of Kettering. I was raised by women: my mum, my nan and my aunt Emma. I am proudly a gen Z woman. Like many others my age, I grew up on social media. I watched this series of “Love Island”. This weekend, I am going to see …”

“Yes, I absolutely agree. I am sad to say that that advice was not new to us. Those, sadly, are things that we have had to learn just through our own experiences. I also put on the record my admiration for colleagues across this House from ethnic minority backgrounds and the LGBTQ+ community and for female Members who h…”

“I thank my right hon. Friend for his chairmanship of the Committee. Given the Prime Minister’s recent announcements, and our increased defence spending, does my right hon. Friend agree that it is important to support small and medium-sized defence enterprises?”

“Where is that competition coming from geographically?”

“Mr Bates, what do you think the key barriers are to growth in the sector?”

“This is to all three of you. We have touched on a few points but, in summary, how competitive is the UK’s business environment? What is holding back growth and investment? I will start with GSK.”

“The Prime Minister showed unwavering commitment to Ukraine this weekend, and I stand with him on that. Will he reiterate this Government’s support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and our commitment to working with our allies in both the US and Europe so that we are in the best position possible to work towards a lasting peac…”

“That is a very certain answer.”

“Sarah, would you agree with that 2050 target being impossible without looking at imports?”
