Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Owen Thompson and Leo Docherty

Thursday 23rd September 2021 Commons Chamber

[The Minister for Defence People and Veterans (Leo Docherty)]

I thank my right hon. Friend for what she does for veterans in her community, and I would be delighted to hold such a meeting.

[Owen Thompson (Midlothian) (SNP)]

T9. I listened with interest to the non-answers given to my hon. Friends earlier, and I wonder whether any more light could be shed on why this Government are so intent on applying a pre-crime approach, on thinking that people might try to commit voter identity fraud, and on suppressing millions, yet ignoring the actual evidence of dark money and large donations to political parties. Can more light be shed on exactly why they are taking that approach?
