Speeches by Rushworth.

“Just checking that I understand, what you are saying is that unlike some of the larger NGOs, as a local organisation you are able to reach and access areas freely but essentially you lack medical supplies—you greatly lack the resources that you would need—and people are dying due to a lack of basic medical supplies tha…”

“Alsanosi, I want to ask the same question but I am also interested to know about the current humanitarian access for aid and whether there are any blockages.”

“I would appreciate also getting Will and Claire’s perspective on this as some of those larger NGOs working on the ground.”

“I want to ask about identity-based violence and to what extent in Sudan we are seeing violence that is distinctly identity-based as opposed to political. To what degree are there resistance and peace movements at a grassroots level that could be better supported?”

“The first question is to Ms Filippo. Could you explain to us the current humanitarian situation on the ground?”

“I welcome the hon. Member’s intervention. I will come on to talk about men’s sheds—I met representatives of the Men’s Sheds Association on Tuesday in Speaker’s House. Men are, indeed, more likely to take their own life. Boys are more likely to be excluded from school, and they are underachieving compared with girls at …”

“My hon. Friend makes an important point. Before coming to this place, I used to tutor for the Brilliant Club in several schools in the north-east and would often have conversations with my students. One course that I taught was about the prevention of genocide, and it touched on issues of identity-based violence and di…”

“I thank everybody who has participated in the debate. I wish that every day in the Chamber was more like this Thursday afternoon, where we have practised a kinder, more respectful politics—I appreciate that. I do not have time to do justice to everybody’s speeches, but I will probably write to some Members to thank the…”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered International Men’s Day, issues affecting boys’ and men’s health and wellbeing and gender equality. I thank members of the Backbench Business Committee for granting this debate and the 22 Members across five parties who supported the application. I have a confession to make…”

“After receiving advice from my Whip, I should declare an interest: I am a former employee of the Red Cross and, while there is no financial connection between us today, I retain a strong bond of affection for the movement.”

“Thank you very much. Sir Iain Duncan Smith, David Davis and Douglas McAllister made representations.”

“I want to ask one more question and, Chair, let me know if this is beyond the remit of this discussion. There has been clear evidence presented today of what I would say constitute breaches of international law, including targeting the symbol of the Red Crescent and blocking aid. I would be interested to know what sort…”

“We heard earlier about the lack of medical aid and basic medical equipment getting in. My question is to Nebal. Since you appeared before the Committee in January, has the situation with regard to border checks improved?”

“What was the balance that you were seeing between people whose injuries and suffering were caused directly by the conflict—bullets, bombs, shrapnel and so on—versus disease, hunger and other types of illness that were caused by living in those conditions?”
