  • Planning and Infrastructure Bill - Committee (8th Day) (Continued): Amendment 256 17 Sep 2025

    I am sorry to interrupt again, and I appreciate that other amendments deal with this, but the very simple principle is that if you are buying somebody’s land, you should pay a fair market price for it, surely.

  • Planning and Infrastructure Bill - Committee (8th Day) (Continued): Amendment 256 17 Sep 2025

    My Lords, I wish to make a brief intervention. In terms of infrastructure, nothing has had a more devastating effect on the countryside and nature than HS2—for no purpose at all, which is very sad. The point I wish to put to the Minister relates to compulsory purchase orders. I do not know whether she is aware that the farmers have been paid only 90% of the value of the farmland taken for...

  • Planning and Infrastructure Bill - Committee (4th Day): Amendment 103ZZA 4 Sep 2025

    Would the noble Baroness accept that even a small number of illegal immigrants in a tiny village can have as much effect as a larger number in an urban area?

  • Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill - Committee (1st Day): Amendment 1 26 Jun 2025

    My Lords, I had not meant to take part in this debate, but I wonder whether I am the only Member of your Lordships’ Committee who is finding it rather surreal—mainly the lack of urgency, although I am not blaming the Minister for that. However, even as we speak in here today, dozens—probably hundreds—of illegal migrants are wandering up the beaches of Kent and disappearing into our...

  • Climate Change: Support for Farmers - Question for Short Debate 23 Jan 2025

    My Lords, when I spoke in a recent debate on agriculture, I took as my text “Barley, Not Bulrushes”. I still think that is an excellent slogan: it sums up in three words the utter nonsense of current policies coming from Defra, the department responsible for feeding our nation, which no longer has either “farming” or “agriculture” in its title. I long for the good old days of...

  • Small Farms and Family Businesses - Motion to Take Note 12 Dec 2024

    My Lords, my text for today is “Barley, Not Bulrushes”. There is nothing more damaging to the fate of a nation than a Government with a huge majority taking massive decisions affecting us all without having the slightest understanding of what they are doing, or perhaps—which is even more frightening—understanding the damage that they are inflicting and being happy if the result is...

  • HS2: Purchased Land - Question 23 Oct 2024

    My Lords, on 31 January 2017 I put an amendment down in this House to the HS2 Bill which, if passed, would have stopped it there and then and saved us all an awful lot of trouble. Some 25 of your Lordships understood and supported me; unfortunately, the Bill that went through resulted in the chaos that we have known, confirming that the project was never a good idea. It is hugely expensive...

  • HS2: Purchased Land - Question 23 Oct 2024

    This issue warrants quite a little bit of talking; it is the biggest one and everybody in the country thinks it is nonsense. Here is my question for the Minister: can he please do his best with an impossible task, keep us fully updated and make sure that everybody who has been affected by this travesty gets the fairest possible treatment?
