My Lords, I support the regret amendment tabled by the noble Lord, Lord McCrea. One must acknowledge that there is a slight Groundhog Day feel to this debate—the third in three weeks—and that the points we have made this evening have already been made ma

Home Owners and Home Ownership
My Lords, I congratulate the noble Baroness, Lady Eaton, on securing this debate. She set out very eloquently the benefits of home ownership, and I do not need to dwell on them again. We know what they are, and I am sure most of us agree with them: the s
My Lords, we are in the second of what will be three discussions of statutory instruments on the Windsor Framework before we go into the Recess. One of the advantages of this rapid sequence of debates is that we can check the consistency of what is said
My Lords, I am glad that the noble Lord, Lord Liddle, raised the question of Europe, because it probably will not surprise those listening to learn that I intend to say a word about that, too. I intend to say a word about it not just because I am deeply
My Lords, I thank the Minister and all those who have taken the trouble to speak this evening on this very important constitutional issue. I note that we have actually finished over five minutes early, even though quite a few speakers ran over the two mi
My Lords, I rise to speak as quickly as I can to my regret Motion on the Windsor Framework (Retail Movement Scheme: Plant Health) (Amendment) Regulations 2026. Despite its title, this is at one level a very simple piece of legislation: it just adds two p
That this House regrets that the Windsor Framework (Retail Movement Scheme: Plant Health) (Amendment) Regulations 2026 involve the alignment of Great Britain with European Union law, which the Windsor Framework does not require.

My Lords, I support the regret amendment tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Sharpe. The strength of this country over the past 20 or 30 years has been in its very flexible labour market. Those of us, like me, who have, from time to time, managed staff in Eur
My Lords, I congratulate the noble Baroness, Lady Evans, for securing this debate and for her excellent opening speech. Britain’s economic problems did not begin with this Government. That would be an unjust accusation. I am afraid Governments of all pa

Contemporary Cultural Boycotts
My Lord, in his great essay The Prevention of Literature, George Orwell wrote:
“imagination, like certain wild animals, will not breed in captivity”.
I think this is a little commented-on reason why the current repression of free speech and freedom

Nature’s Rights Bill [HL]
My Lords, I thank the noble Baroness, Lady Bennett, for bringing forward this Bill. It is an extremely interesting Bill, well worthy of debate. It is good to have a Bill that raises properly philosophical issues; apart from the recent assisted dying Bill
My Lords, it is very good that we are having this discussion today; I want to raise two issues. The first is the role of the Electoral Commission and the second is the composition of the electoral register.

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Wallace, for enabling this debate because it gives us an opportunity to puncture the hysteria and moral panic that seem to have overwhelmed most of the British political class in recent years about disinfor

Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill
My Lords, I congratulate the Minister on his promotion and thank him for his very clear opening statement. The problem we have today is that we are looking at a Bill that is important in its own right but is only one part of a much bigger problem: can we

The Minister has said several times that this legislation is justified on the grounds of simplicity and avoiding two different regimes. Could he therefore explain why the EU regulations on which it is based are only 10,000 words long, whereas the UK stat
My Lords, I thank the most reverend Primate for her excellent opening speech in this debate, which admirably set out the issues that I think ought to be concerning us.

My Lords, it is a pleasure to follow the noble Lord, Lord Lilley, but also a problem, as he has said almost everything that needs to be said on this subject already, and in a style that few of us can imitate.

My Lords, I am delighted to speak in today’s debate on the humble Address. As noble Lords will probably expect, I plan to focus on European issues and, in particular, the sadly misnamed European partnership Bill, which would be better called the European

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
My Lords, I shall speak to Amendments 135 and 436 in my name. These two amendments relate to one of the specific functions just elaborated by the noble Lord, Lord Moylan. Amendment 135 would create in Clause 4 a specific duty on the commissioner of ens
My Lords, as I follow the noble Baroness, Lady Hayter, noble Lords will get an encapsulation of the difficulties that the noble Lord, Lord Ricketts, had in chairing our committee. He had a very difficult task, and the disagreements were very strong. As h

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
I am coming to my conclusion. It is somewhat safer with the two criteria of autonomy plus life expectancy and of unbearable and irremediable suffering. It limits the scope of the moral and legal change, or regression as I would see it, that we are undert
