Illegal Migrants: Unknown Whereabouts

Debate between Nusrat Ghani and Alan Gemmell

Tuesday 9th December 2025 Commons Chamber

[Alan Gemmell (Central Ayrshire) (Lab)]

Is that allowed?

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Ms Nusrat Ghani)]

Order. We do not need commentary from a sedentary position. I remind Mr Lowe that we do not accuse other Members of misleading the House, so please refrain from using such terms and please check your language.

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

[Alan Gemmell]

You have a responsibility to be an adult!

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

Order. If I needed the hon. Member’s help, I would have asked for it.

Mr Lowe, this is a very serious subject. We have to make sure that our language is appropriate and serious. I will now call the Minister, and no doubt you will want to intervene on him, but please keep your language in check.

UK Infrastructure: 10-year Strategy

Debate between Nusrat Ghani and Alan Gemmell

Thursday 19th June 2025 Commons Chamber

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Ms Nusrat Ghani)]

I am hoping that the next question will be as entertaining as his constant chuntering. I call Alan Gemmell.

[Alan Gemmell (Central Ayrshire) (Lab)]

Thank you very much, Madam Deputy Speaker. It is very nice to finally be recognised by the Chair.

Does the Minister agree that this approach to investment is fundamentally different from the Conservative chaos that led to crumbling schools, hospitals and roads, and light-years away from that of the SNP Government, whose profligate waste of public money has led to a £1 billion ferry fiasco in Ayrshire?

rose—

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Ms Nusrat Ghani)]

Order. Just before the intervention is taken, I must mention the reference to “you”. Surely you are not responding to a question that I have just asked; you are speaking to the Chair. Please continue, Sir Ashley.
