Rishi Sunak: This morning, I had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. In addition to my duties in this House, I shall have further such meetings later today.
Baroness Hamwee: ...threshold as one of a number of items. I am going to quote a little from the report. We reminded readers of the Government’s commitment to family life, in the words of the Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, who said: “Strong, supportive families make for more stable communities”. In a speech setting out his priorities for 2023, he said that, by being overly restrictive, family migration...
Lord Rogan: ...Gardai officers to police the border—the only land border between the United Kingdom and a member state of the EU. However, they now appear to have backed away from this. In the meantime, Rishi Sunak has made clear that His Majesty’s Government refuse to take back any refugees from the Republic of Ireland unless France agrees to take back refugees who crossed the English Channel to get...
Mike Hedges: ...colli mwy nag a enillais ac rwyf wedi bod yn anhapus iawn gyda refferenda, oherwydd maent yn gorfodi ateb 'ie' neu 'na' i gwestiynau cymhleth iawn, ac mae honno'n broblem ddifrifol. Gallai Rishi Sunak roi refferendwm i ni nawr ar ei Lywodraeth—fe'i gelwir yn etholiad cyffredinol—a byddai pawb ar y meinciau Llafur wrth eu bodd gyda hynny. Nid yw dewis system etholiadol newydd yn...
James Murray: ...idea that the economy is turning a corner is simply not reflected in reality. The truth is that our economy is smaller per person than it was when the right hon. Member for Richmond (Yorks) (Rishi Sunak) became Prime Minister. Our country is forecast by the OECD to have economic growth of just 1% next year, weaker than that in every other G20 country except Russia. If, under the...
Rishi Sunak: I know the whole House will join me in congratulating John Swinney on becoming Scottish National party leader and Scottish First Minister. I look forward to working constructively with him to deliver for the people of Scotland. This morning, I had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. In addition to my duties in this House, I shall have further such meetings later today.
Stephen Kinnock: To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to the speech entitled Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s statement on the plan to stop the boats, published by the Prime Minister’s office on 22 April 2024, what the evidential basis is for the statement that the judiciary have identified 150 judges who could provide over 5,000 sitting days to deal with challenges to the removal of...
Sioned Williams: ..., yn Senedd yr Alban, y cynhaliwyd dadl yn galw am gadoediad ar unwaith. Yn ystod y ddadl honno, dywedodd y cyn-Brif Weinidog Humza Yousaf ei fod wedi anfon llythyr gan Lywodraeth yr Alban at Rishi Sunak a Keir Starmer yn gofyn iddynt alw am gadoediad ar unwaith. A yw Llywodraeth Cymru wedi gwneud yr un peth?
Lee Waters: ..., y Canghellor, a hyd yn oed cyn-Brif Weinidog y DU, Boris Johnson, nid yn unig eu cyhuddo o dorri cod y Gweinidogion ond eu dyfarnu o fod wedi torri cod y Gweinidogion. Ond beth a oedd gan Rishi Sunak a’r Ceidwadwyr Cymreig i’w ddweud am hynny? Dim o gwbl. Felly, gall pob un ohonom weld drwy eu safonau dwbl, ond y rheswm pam fy mod siarad y prynhawn yma yw am ein bod i fod yn well na...
Kevin Stewart: ...a Labour Government to follow—gets away with this outrage against the WASPI women, it will be coming for the pensions of the rest of us next. Just today, the UK Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, refused to rule out raising the state pension age to 75. What happened to the WASPI women sets the stage for what Westminster may well do next. If it gets away with its outrageous...
Jackie Baillie: ..., it was Boris Johnson, but partygate was his undoing. Then we had Liz Truss for all of 50 days, which resulted in interest rates rising and mortgages spiralling out of control. Now we have Rishi Sunak presiding over the country’s continuing decline. The last two were, of course, appointed by the Tory party and not elected by the country. The parallels with the current SNP Government are...
Rishi Sunak: I know the thoughts of the whole House are with the people of Hainault in east London following yesterday’s appalling attacks. Such violence has no place on our streets. It is absolutely heartbreaking that a teenage boy has died, and I cannot imagine what his family are going through. We send them our heartfelt condolences and offer our very best wishes to all those injured. I reiterate my...
Richard Leonard: ...from David Cameron’s mendacious claim that “excessive health and safety culture” was “an albatross around the neck of ... businesses” to Rishi Sunak’s odious attack, just 10 days ago, on the so-called “sick note culture”. Well, I have an answer for Rishi Sunak: start making workplaces healthier, end the long-hours culture, stop...
Mark Durkan: ...PIP process can be and often is, disability benefits in general offer a safety net: assurance from the welfare state that society's most vulnerable will be protected. Recent proposals from Rishi Sunak fly in the face of that objective. The Tories' proposed reform of the system, including stopping regular cash payments, is an immoral attack on those with disabilities. If, in turn, the...
Marie McNair: ...on them. The policy is ruining children’s lives today and their futures tomorrow, so let us end it now by reversing the cap. The suffering has gone on for too long. In response to Sunak’s recent reaffirmation of the policy, the CPAG’s chief executive said: “With child poverty at a record high, the prime minister has now clearly decided that making kids poor is...
Baroness Mair Eluned Morgan: Diolch yn fawr, Gareth, ac a gaf i eich llongyfarch ar gadw eich rôl? Mewn gwirionedd, rwy'n credu na fydd gan yr hen Rishi Sunak druan lawer i'w ddangos o ran ei waddol, ond mae hyn yn rhywbeth rwy'n credu y bydd, gobeithio, yn rhan o'i waddol. Dyma bron iawn yr unig beth gwerth chweil y mae wedi'i wneud fel Prif Weinidog, oherwydd y ffaith yw bod tybaco yn lladd tua 8 miliwn o bobl ledled...
Jane Hutt: ...gan yr UE. Cynllun gwirfoddol oedd hi'n bennaf, gyda'r nod o helpu pobl anabl i gael gwaith. Roedd hyn, fel y dywedais i, yng nghyd-destun polisi llawer ehangach gan Brif Weinidog y DU, gan Rishi Sunak, sydd eisiau torri budd-daliadau, ac, fel y dywedwch, mae elusennau wedi disgrifio hyn fel ymosodiad di-baid ar bobl anabl. Bydd ymgynghoriad, rwy'n deall, hefyd, ar daliadau annibyniaeth...

Beth Winter: ...about social security and carers’ benefits and assistance. First, the demonisation of people in receipt of social security benefits, which are an entitlement, should stop. Only last week, we had Sunak talking about a “sick note culture”—language that is inflammatory, disgraceful and very dangerous. It will only exacerbate people’s hardship. In Cynon Valley, high numbers of people...
