10 Dec 2024Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-12-10)

My question is relevant to the tourism point. How receptive are you to the argument for loosening entry requirements for kids on school trips? I remember I had a Westminster Hall debate on this under the last Government. We have all done it in reverse as well—a school trip to France. They could come over on ID cards bu

Let’s do this together. I am happy to feed in the stuff I have.

Brilliant. Youth culture: I know that there are questions on youth work, but mods, teds, hippies, ravers—it is a great British institution, and composed of a multiple of things. What do you think of the argument that youth culture should be in the UNESCO convention for the safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage?

There is a museum of youth culture across the river—we could do a trip there. It is a good thing. In general, what is our timetable on this? The last Government said that they would implement that convention. What is going on with that now?

I have; it didn’t make it on Friday. I have a new date. There is a lot of expertise I could share with you.

I call the shadow Minister, the hon. Member for Hinckley and Bosworth (Dr Evans), to speak for His Majesty’s loyal Opposition.

10 Dec 2024 Cleve Hill Solar Park

I will call Helen Whately to move the motion, and then I will call the Minister to respond. There will not be an opportunity for the Member in charge to wind up, as is the convention with these 30-minute wonders.

Netflix does not have to do that. It is because ITV is a public service broadcaster. Yes, if you can do it on those things, it would be much better, thank you. I am so glad that you get it—Britney and everything.

On the point of spreading things around, I totally get that it cannot all stay in central London. Can I have a plea for suburban London as well? We always feel hard done by because everyone assumes that London means that the streets are paved with gold in the city centre. I remember raising to one of your predecessors

The British Museum is in your bailiwick. Do you think that it accurately reflects what people want to see? Some people are quite alarmed that there is no acknowledgment of the British role in the transatlantic slave trade at all in there. There is a campaign by the Good Law Project at the moment called “No Room for Sla

6 Dec 2024 European Union (Withdrawal Arrangements) Bill

May I echo what was said by my hon. Friend the Member for Bootle (Peter Dowd), Madam Deputy Speaker, and say that my heart swells with pride to see you in the Chair? We are of the same vintage, as is the Prime Minister: the class of 2015. Here we are on another Friday of private Members’ Bills. I have to say to the hon

2 Dec 2024North-West Syria

Christian minority families find themselves facing jihadist terrorists and Russian airstrikes. The family of my Acton constituent Waheba fled to Aleppo 10 years ago from their original city of Al-Tabqah. She wonders whether there could be some kind of Ukrainian-style resettlement scheme for Syrians with blood ties here

2 Dec 2024Bangladesh: Attacks on Hindu Community

I am grateful to my constituency neighbour, my hon. Friend the Member for Brent West (Barry Gardiner), for raising these important issues. We must be vigilant against all attacks on minorities, be they Buddhists, Christians or the Hindus in Bangladesh. Does the Minister agree that, sadly, at times, since the country’s

T5. Since the announcement of my Sale of Tickets (Sporting and Cultural Events) Bill, which makes provision for transparency on ticket prices, I have been deluged with suggestions and support worldwide from people who do not want another Oasis-style ticket scam. Will Ministers meet me to discuss working together on thi

20 Nov 2024 Global Plastics Treaty

I will call Dr Simon Opher to move the motion and I believe there will be one other small speech before the Minister responds. There will not be an opportunity for the Member in charge to wind up on this occasion, as this is only a 30-minute debate.

Our final Back Bencher, before we move on to the Lib Dem spokesperson, is Lee Pitcher.

20 Nov 2024 Global Plastics Treaty

I can answer that, actually. It is only a 30-minute debate, so it is very bare bones and there is no opportunity for the mover of the motion to respond and no Opposition spokesperson. It is not that they did not turn up.

20 Nov 2024 Global Plastics Treaty

Order. The Clerk is telling me that “you” is not usually used to refer to other Members, only to the Chair. The Clerk keeps telling me to say this; I have restrained myself so far, but it is one of the conventions of this unusual workplace.
