Ymddangosiadau diweddar

• Lawfare and Investigative Journalism 17 Oct 2022

  I noticed that these cases had been filed, though not yet served, and I tabled a written question in this place about their effects on media freedom. I have to tell the House and the right hon. Gentleman that I was then contacted by lawyers for the company asking me to withdraw that question. What is his response to their asking me to withdraw a perfectly innocent parliamentary question?

• Replacement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer 17 Oct 2022

  The Prime Minister throwing her Chancellor under the bus in order to save her skin is not a tough decision. Tough decisions are made by people who then show true leadership by asking others to come with them and by inspiring them. This Prime Minister has done none of that. Why should we follow her when she has shown no leadership whatsoever, but has hidden away?

• Written Answers — Department of Health and Social Care: Podiatry: Buckinghamshire 17 Oct 2022

  To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment she has made (a) podiatry vacancy rates in the NHS in City of Chester constituency and (b) the impact these vacancies will have on patient treatment for diabetic foot complications.
