publish a "didn't vote" attendance roll like the Commons, so the

My Lords, I think a dress code is a sign of respect. We sit in this beautiful House, and it is respectful to dress properly. We are on the television and people are viewing the proceedings in this House. We are the only House that does not have a strict

My Lords, I agree with everything that my noble friend Lord Minto said and I want to come back to home. As the Minister said, the threats are real. But one has the impression that the Government are not doing enough to protect British citizens. It remind

My Lords, I congratulate my noble friend Lord Bridges on securing this important debate and on his excellent opening speech.
The Prime Minister wants to “bring back hope”, but he blames Thatcherism and Blairite economics—which he once supported—for Br

United Kingdom: Business Competitiveness
My Lords, I welcome the Minister to his new position. I thank him for his Answer, but I am a little surprised by his optimism. Since the changes to capital gains tax and higher employment costs, 6,000 business owners and company directors have left the c

Draft Conversion Practices Bill
My Lords, given that abusive conversion practices are already criminal offences, can the Minister tell the House what conduct the Government intend this Bill to criminalise that is not already unlawful? Can he identify a single case in which a victim wa

Welfare Reforms and Youth Unemployment
My Lords, it is an honour to follow my noble friend’s excellent speech. As many pointed out, the Alan Milburn review was a wake-up call. I am not going to go through all the facts and figures again, because they were so clearly presented by the noble Lor

Cuba: Humanitarian Situation
My Lords, the United States has offered $100 million in aid to be administered by the Catholic Church, which the Cuban Government have not accepted, as they insist that all aid must go through their own institution. Given that the Cuban regime has provid

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
My Amendment 169 is a very modest one. It simply proposes that, if the Bill proceeds, before any doctor raises the possibility of assisted dying, the patient should first receive a psychological assessment from an appropriately qualified specialist. This
My Lords, today’s debate is ultimately about the national interest. Would a closer relationship with the EU best serve the UK’s economic and strategic needs as an outward-looking global nation? The Chancellor has described stronger EU ties as the country

My Lords, Amendment 455 in my name seeks to preserve legal protection for unborn babies who could survive outside the womb. Clause 191 would fully decriminalise abortions by stating that a woman would commit no offence in relation to her own pregnancy. I

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill
My Lords, I too oppose the removal of the defence of reasonable punishment. I realise that Amendment 97 from the noble Baroness, Lady Finlay, no longer does that directly, but it is intended as a staging post, and this is why I would like to talk about
My Lords, I support Amendment 32, to which I have added my name. Giving the Chagossian people a say before their homeland is transferred to Mauritius is not an unreasonable demand; it is basic justice. At its heart lies the principle of self-determinatio

Autumn Budget 2025
My right honourable friend Kemi Badenoch hit the nail on the head when she described this Budget as one “sold on a lie”. It is a house of cards built on misleading claims about the public finances to justify sweeping tax rises. This is not responsible ma
Yes, and they seem to approve what we are saying. Basically, these amendments are about asking the Chagossian people about the right to self-determination through a referendum. I have never met a Chagossian in my life, but I have received many letters fr
But I allow my noble friend.
I presume that a referendum would actually ask the Chagossian people what they want for their future and self-determination.
My Lords, I shall speak in support of Amendments 14 and 25. This treaty and the Bill that will enact it is bad for our country, for our security and for British taxpayers. As we have already discussed, it will leave Britain poorer, weaker and strategical
My Lords, being 30th in the list is a problem, as I am bound to repeat what many noble Lords sitting on my Benches have said. But sometimes things need to be repeated time and time again for them to sink in, and this is particularly so when you are facin
