| 25 Feb 2026 | Diesel Vehicles: Defeat Devices “The hon. Gentleman makes such an excellent point as he always does. It is an honour to be intervened on by him. As he said, this was done with intent all over the British Isles, in all our nations. He mentioned the VW scandal. As I say, there could be worse round the corner. Despite the outlawing of these defeat device…” environmenthealthtransport | 1,416 |
| 25 Feb 2026 | Electronic Travel Authorisation: Dual Nationals “After 40 years in the UK, it was the proudest moment of Petra Gartzen’s life when she obtained British citizenship. She is on holiday in Spain, and was shocked to discover that she will not be able to re-enter with her normal German travel document, because she is a dual national. Up until now, she has never needed a B…” immigrationmp-performance | 119 |
| 25 Feb 2026 | Diesel Vehicles: Defeat Devices “I like what I have heard so far because, up to now, this has all been a bit mysterious. I wonder if it might be a good idea for me to meet the Minister. As a London MP, I have experience with ULEZ—we have a riding school in my seat, and an exemption was made for a horsebox. As I have experience of what happens in Londo…” environmenthealthtransport | 92 |
| 5 Feb 2026 | Occupied Palestinian Territories: Genocide Risk Assessment “I completely agree with my hon. Friend. He used to work for Save the Children, which has also been de-registered—the shame of it. We must act. There has been a systematic discrediting of the UN. United Nations Relief and Works Agency buildings have been destroyed, and Francesca Albanese has been accused of being a witc…” defenceculture-communityother | 267 |
| 5 Feb 2026 | Occupied Palestinian Territories: Genocide Risk Assessment “We have seen UK recognition of Palestine become a reality and a Gaza ceasefire under Labour, but still 70,000 Palestinians have been killed—a figure now accepted by Israel—including 500 people since the ceasefire. We have seen repeated forcible displacement and whole neighbourhoods gone. Is this genocide, like Srebreni…” defenceculture-communityother | 188 |
| 2 Feb 2026 | China and Japan “I congratulate my right hon. and learned Friend on last week’s handsome wins, including on visas in China—I just wondered whether the same issue arose in Japan. I did a brilliant visit to the Japan London school in my seat the other day, but that school is finding the dogmatic visa changes made by the Conservative Gove…” defenceeconomy-jobstechnology | 83 |

| 13 Jan 2026 | Iran “After the false dawns of the Arab spring and the “zan, zendegi, azadi” movement, I ask my right hon. Friend to stand firmly with the Iranian diaspora here—many of whom came after the ’79 revolution—against this brutal, repressive and tyrannical regime, particularly those who are critical of it from here? The TV station…” defenceimmigrationcrime | 93 |
| 12 Jan 2026 | Call for General Election “We will resume with Kevin Hollinrake.” fiscal-policyeconomy-jobslocal-government | 6 |
| 12 Jan 2026 | Call for General Election “When you were “in love with a beautiful woman”!” fiscal-policyeconomy-jobslocal-government | 9 |
| 12 Jan 2026 | Call for General Election “I think they all had to ask for permission. They should return for the concluding speeches, but we are finishing a bit earlier than we thought. We are already on the Front-Bench speeches. Usually, that would be 45 minutes before the end. I can inform the Chairman of Ways and Means and get some clarification for the fut…” fiscal-policyeconomy-jobslocal-government | 75 |
| 12 Jan 2026 | Call for General Election “Order. That is a bit on the long side for an intervention.” fiscal-policyeconomy-jobslocal-government | 12 |
| 12 Jan 2026 | Call for General Election “Order. We will suspend for 15 minutes for a Division in the House.” fiscal-policyeconomy-jobslocal-government | 13 |
| 12 Jan 2026 | Call for General Election “Order. I am being told by the Clerk that this is getting way out of scope. We are debating a petition to have a general election.” fiscal-policyeconomy-jobslocal-government | 26 |
| 6 Jan 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594) “Welcome and congratulations. You are still in the honeymoon period, I guess, if it is the first few weeks. First of all, thank you, Historic England. I often write to you when we have local planning applications in conservation areas. You are a statutory consultee so councils have to go to you. How would you say your r…” | 77 |

| 6 Jan 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594) “What more do you think you would need from the Government to support your work? There is a danger in an era of build, build, build that this heritage stuff is seen as a bit of a luxury. There have been cases of maladministration found by the ombudsman where people did not take it seriously, and there were poor decision…” | 61 |
| 6 Jan 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 594) “How satisfied are you with the level of central Government involvement in your work? If it is true that your objections can be overridden, and it sounds good that this money is coming, but it is true that conservation officers have gone out of fashion—actually, in our borough we have brought it back in. I think it went…” | 74 |
