To ask His Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the economic benefits of giving sports clubs special enterprise zone status.
2026-09-17 Sports Clubs: Special Enterprise Zone Status
My Lords, I had the privilege and honour of serving in the Blair Government under Richard Caborn and Tessa Jowell for five years and being in the private discussions around the Olympic legacy and the Olympic Park. The one thing more than anything that I
2026-09-16 Retirement and Participation Committee Report
My Lords, my only caveat on what is an excellently written and structured report is that perhaps it would have benefited from asking the people for their view. I have done. Over many years, when I was an elected representative, I asked people for their v
2026-06-08 Financial Services and Markets Bill [HL]
If we had green technology in households and businesses everywhere, then we would be less reliant on Russia, China and Iran. So, why is there no financial product that the householder can get hold of to put, say, solar panels on their roof, so they and t
2026-06-03 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
My Lords, having sat through the entire legislative process, minute by minute, of the Olympic Bill, along with the noble Lord, Lord Foster of Bath—there were not many of us there—I am slightly perplexed. I recall what we had to pass, which was certainly
2026-06-03 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
The Bill as worded does do that, because it requires the permission of the initial seller to do so. If the initial seller refuses to allow that to happen and requires the tickets to be returned to them, which is an increasing trend, then, as currently wo
2026-06-03 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
Which was agreed. The point, however, is this Bill’s purpose. Without amendments, it could end up being rather ineffective. What is a national sporting event? If we have another Olympics, the rules will have changed. In effect, the nation is ceded to the
2026-05-19 King’s Speech
The Minister, the noble Baroness, Lady Levitt, explained the Government’s priorities yesterday: to “right past wrongs”, to “rebuild … trust”, to “make sure that systems work as they should and to restore fairness and predictability”.—[Official Report,
2026-04-21 Immigration and Asylum (Provision of Accommodation to Failed Asylum-Seekers) (Amendment) Regulations 2026
My Lords, I congratulate the Home Office on its direction of travel, but I have a few points I think it needs to consider to get this right. It would be helpful if the Home Office were to publish more regularly the gender breakdown of asylum seekers so t
2026-03-26 Antisemitism in International Human Rights Bodies
My Lords, we were the first country in the world to adopt the IHRA definition. We are regarded by many countries, in some areas, as being world-leading in how we tackle antisemitism, not least in the way in which we have succeeded in working on a cross-

2026-03-02 Crime and Policing Bill
The Minister gave a commitment earlier, I believe, to read the letter from IICSA. I have not seen the letter, although, unlike anyone from the Home Office, I was one of the two MPs who attended the inquiry. In fact, I represented people for 30 days at th
2026-03-02 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I find it hard to comprehend any reason why anybody on the Labour Benches could possibly contemplate not voting for these amendments. On Amendment 273, if the argument is, “Oh, leave it with us”, that is not convincing. The Labour Party has so
2026-03-02 Mesothelioma Lump Sum Payments (Conditions and Amounts) (Amendment) Regulations 2026
My Lords, I wish to make a couple of remarks in relation to these statutory instruments. It is a long time since the pneumoconiosis compensation schemes were brought in—so long that a photo that I was shown on Friday of a very youthful now Minister was r
2025-10-24 Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Bill
The relevance of this is that the purpose of the Bill is to ensure safety at football matches. The interaction between the Bill and the need for guidance and guidelines, including for the police, on how it would be best used is fundamental to its success
2025-10-24 Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Bill
I shall be brief, because this is the last point I want to make from the report. It says: “Several people were injured, five of whom were treated in hospital”. Those five, I can confirm, were Israelis. It continues: “Twenty to thirty Israeli s
2025-10-24 Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Bill
My Lords, that shows the ingenuity that doubtless may have been attempted. I am considering when that could be used, before the Bill becomes law, to assist the noble Lord in accessing a certain match that he is keen to watch. There are other points th
2025-10-24 Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Bill
My Lords, I endorse the Bill and the principle of the amendment by the noble Lord, Lord Moynihan. I will repeat nothing of his points but merely make observations to add to them. I think Members of the House would be shocked at the prices for the aver
2025-09-04 Planning and Infrastructure Bill
My Lords, I feel obliged to declare an interest as the owner of a listed building with a lot of practical experience of listed building consent. I strongly endorse the words—and, I suspect, the amendment—of the noble Lord, Lord Parkinson. I certainly end
2025-07-17 Commission on Antisemitism Report
My Lords, I commend the brilliance of the contribution of Dame Penny Mordaunt to this report. This is a report for the United Kingdom. Does not this cross-party collaboration, which the UK has long been the world leader in, re-emphasise the importance of
2025-05-22 Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories
My Lords, I had the unfortunate need this morning to privately message my long-standing friend Ted Deutch, the leader of the American Jewish Committee, whose event on peacebuilding was ended with the murder of two Jewish people. When Jewish people cannot
2025-05-07 Antisemitism on University Campuses
My Lords, I reference my registered interests, not least as the Government’s appointed adviser on antisemitism. I have met representatives of every single university in the UK in the last three years. I have met Jewish students from virtually all the 85
2025-03-13 Great British Railways
My Lords, this is a debate when we can again lament the passing of the great Lord Prescott. I came down this morning on a Prescott express. One of the greatest, most transformative achievements of the last Labour Government was Hull Trains and the way it
2025-02-10 Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill
The Minister is giving a good explanation on bureaucracy and cost, which I think is rational, but I fear I am hearing too much of the Home Office mentality of an “authorised person”. When it comes to dealing with major risk, including dealing with terror
2025-02-10 Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill
My Lords, my experience of smaller venues is that they are significantly more adept, knowledgeable and willing to explain security and safety procedures in advance of any event. I cannot recall this ever happening in a larger venue. This morning, I was a
