• 12 May 2025 · US-UK Trade Deal: Northern Ireland · Hansard source

  Order. I am sure that the hon. and learned Member must be coming to an end. Just because the Secretary of State has taken advantage of the Chamber, I certainly do not expect every other Member to do so—Front Benchers, yes, but the hon. and learned Member will know that he is limited to two minutes.

• 12 May 2025 · US-UK Trade Deal: Northern Ireland · Hansard source

  More

  Order. I gently say that answers to urgent questions are only meant to last for three minutes. I can see that you have quite a few more pages; I am happy to take them because I think it is important that the House knows about the deal, but we need to understand what we have granted and what we have not granted. I do not want to go back over the events of Thursday, when nobody seemed to understand the procedure of the House, and I recognise how important this issue is to hon. Members but, seriously, we should know the rules and I just wonder how this has gone wrong again.

• 12 May 2025 · US-UK Trade Deal: Northern Ireland · Hansard source

  More

  I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.

• 12 May 2025 · US-UK Trade Deal: Northern Ireland · Hansard source

  More

  I call the shadow Minister.

• 12 May 2025 · US-UK Trade Deal: Northern Ireland · Hansard source

  More

  Order. If it is so very important, why was it not presented to the House as a statement or converted? That is what I would say. I never quite understand—the other day, we could not convert them quickly enough, but today we do not want to.

• 12 May 2025 · Winter Fuel Payment: Means-testing · Hansard source

  More

  I call the shadow Secretary of State.

• 12 May 2025 · Winter Fuel Payment: Means-testing · Hansard source

  More

  The good news is that the Minister has no responsibility for the Opposition.

• 12 May 2025 · Protection of Prison Staff · Hansard source

  More

  I call the Chair of the Justice Committee.

• 12 May 2025 · Protection of Prison Staff · Hansard source

  More

  I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.

• 8 May 2025 · Stalking · Hansard source

  More

  That completes questions. May I just say to the Serjeant at Arms that I am very concerned that Members who had questions on the Order Paper have not been allowed into the House? Can we take this up with the police? They have no right to stop a Member entering this House. I take it very seriously. Before we proceed to the business question, I should inform the House that the Government have indicated that there will be a statement this afternoon on US-UK trade. The timing of that statement has yet to be established, but it will appear on the annunciator once it has been confirmed.

• 8 May 2025 · Serious Fraud Office: Tackling Economic Crime · Hansard source

  More

  I call the shadow Solicitor General.

• 8 May 2025 · Serious Fraud Office: Tackling Economic Crime · Hansard source

  More

  Your problems are solved, Solicitor General.

• 8 May 2025 · Brain Tumours: Research and Treatment · Hansard source

  More

  I believe we are now coming to the statement.

• 8 May 2025 · Brain Tumours: Research and Treatment · Hansard source

  More

  Order. It is not my judgment; these are the rules of the House. An urgent question was put in, and it was converted by the Government into a statement, so it is for the Government now to come forward with the statement.

• 8 May 2025 · Brain Tumours: Research and Treatment · Hansard source

  More

  Order. The Government have to come forward with a statement. They converted an urgent question to a statement this morning, so a statement has to be made. What the Minister says cannot be done on a point of order, as that would be unfair. I understand that people were going around telling Members to go home as there would be no statement, because Downing Street had decided that. We do not do business like this: it is totally wrong. To give him the benefit of the doubt, I am sure he would like to update the House on the position now, and I would of course expect the details to come on Monday.

• 8 May 2025 · Topical Questions · Hansard source

  More

  Order. This is a very important matter, but I am bothered that nobody else is going to get in, so I hope the shadow Secretary of State’s second question is shorter.

• 8 May 2025 · Topical Questions · Hansard source

  More

  I call the spokesperson for the Liberal Democrat party.

• 8 May 2025 · Topical Questions · Hansard source

  I call Diane Abbott—not here. I call the shadow Secretary of State.

• 8 May 2025 · Nature-friendly Farming · Hansard source

  Order. We have a lot to get through today—come on.
