2024-01-31 Schools: Financial Education
My Lords, I thank my noble friend Lady Sater for securing this debate and for her very powerful opening remarks. Many kids today will be alive and transacting in the year 2100. A child who is in year 4 today will in 2100 be only in their 80s and will
2023-12-14 North Korea

2021-09-08 Sub-Saharan Africa (Report from the International Relations and Defence Committee)
My Lords, the committee has produced an excellent report. I will focus on a very specific bit of it, the role of CDC, which the noble Earl, Lord Sandwich, and my noble friend Lord Eccles mentioned earlier. I happen to think that CDC can do a whole lot
2021-07-20 Human Rights Due Diligence
My Lords, Eid Mubarak to all those celebrating. While we are very efficient in detailing the human rights abuses in overseas supply chains that we source from, we do not demonstrate the same enthusiasm when we export our trash to those same countries. Wh

2021-05-12 Queen’s Speech
