Clive Lewis (Norwich South) (Lab)
Listening to the right hon. Lady and the excuses that the previous Government have made for what they did, it seems that what you were doing was equivalent to polishing one of the many turds that you will find in the Thames. Perhaps you would like to listen to your main electoral competitor, Reform UK, which actually has a policy for public ownership—I was quite surprised to find that out myself. Perhaps you think that that could solve many of the problems in UK waters.
Madam Deputy Speaker (Ms Nusrat Ghani)
Order. One solution would be not using the word “you”. As an experienced Member, he should know much better than that.
