Debate between Chris Vince and Gagan Mohindra

Tuesday 20th October 2026 Commons Chamber

[Chris Vince (Harlow) (Lab/Co-op)]

Under this Government 250,000 people are being diagnosed within 28 days, which we should welcome, but we must recognise that there is more to be done. This morning I met representatives of Prostate Cancer UK. In fact, I played football against them—

[Mr Gagan Mohindra (South West Hertfordshire) (Con)]

Badly!

[Chris Vince]

That is true, although we did win. They made the point that so many men in this country are still dying of prostate cancer because they are not coming forward soon enough, and we know that the impact is even greater on the black, Asian and minority ethnic community. What can the Government do to support wonderful charities such as Prostate Cancer UK to cut the number of men dying of prostate cancer?
