| 5 Mar 2025 | River Wandle Pollution “Like the hon. Member, I was born and brought up along the banks of the River Wandle. Today, it is a much more prestigious river than it was all those years ago. In fact, there is a connection with the Chamber today, because the leather on these seats came from Connolly’s leather factory, which was a tannery on the Wand…” environmentutilities | 174 |
| 4 Mar 2025 | Backbench Business Committee — Oral Evidence (2025-03-04) “I am here with my colleague Charlie Maynard from the Liberal Democrats; we share a personal and a political devotion to this particular subject. Brain tumours are the biggest cancer killer of under-40s in this country. It is little known, but they are also the biggest killer of children. Out of 29 comparable countries,…” | 225 |
| 4 Mar 2025 | Backbench Business Committee — Oral Evidence (2025-03-04) “No. We would just be grateful for the time and the opportunity to put pressure on organisations that, to date, have been pretty impervious to our efforts.” | 27 |

| 12 Feb 2025 | Support for Pensioners “Order. We are out of time, but I want to make a public apology to the hon. Member for Epsom and Ewell (Helen Maguire).

| 12 Feb 2025 | Support for Pensioners “Order. I remind the Member that she came into the debate very late. I do not wish to embarrass her in any way, but if she wants to intervene, she needs to be here at the start of the debate.” cost-of-livingsocial-carefiscal-policy | 40 |
| 12 Feb 2025 | Support for Pensioners “I remind Members that they should bob if they wish to be called to speak in the debate.” cost-of-livingsocial-carefiscal-policy | 18 |
| 12 Feb 2025 | Support for Pensioners “Order. The right hon. Member is a man of great of experience and he knows that this is an intervention, rather than a speech.” cost-of-livingsocial-carefiscal-policy | 24 |

| 12 Feb 2025 | Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories “Order. I ask the hon. Member to sit down. I apologise—I know that he waited a long time to make his contribution. I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson, who has five minutes.” defenceother | 32 |
| 12 Feb 2025 | Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories “Order. I apologise for this, but a desire to get everybody in means that I am now reducing the time limit to one minute.” defenceother | 24 |
| 12 Feb 2025 | Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories “I clarify that I am imposing a hard two-minute limit, so I will ask hon. Members to sit down if they go over it.” defenceother | 24 |
| 12 Feb 2025 | Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories “Order. I remind Members that they should bob if they wish to be called in the debate. Please do not take that to be a promise. As everybody can see, a lot of people want to speak. We will endeavour to get through everybody, as is our hope. At the moment, we think the limit is around two minutes, but should it prove nec…” defenceother | 72 |
| 12 Feb 2025 | Support for the Scotch Whisky Industry “I will call Graham Leadbitter to move the motion. Unusually, two further Members will make a contribution in this half-hour debate.

| 12 Feb 2025 | Support for Pensioners “Order. I do apologise to the hon. Member, but that is not a point of order, and she knows it. I call the Minister.” cost-of-livingsocial-carefiscal-policy | 24 |
| 11 Feb 2025 | Treasury Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 685) “This causes so much distress to so many constituents, and is a great driver in the use of cash and the need for face-to-face banking, because people are so terrified of being scammed. I want to fully understand some of the rules. Somebody might be scammed by being told that their account is unsafe, and the person on th…” | 134 |

| 11 Feb 2025 | Treasury Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 685) “It has to be a fraudulent or dishonest act or course of conduct to manipulate, deceive or persuade a consumer into transferring funds. Most scams are never passed to the police or to any other regulator. Do you require that, or require it to be investigated in order to say, “Yes, that is dishonest and deceitful”?” | 56 |
