UK-France Migration: Co-operation

"This is a grubby, grotesque little deal, which in itself trades in lives with the selection of who qualifies for this one in, one out basis. This gimmick means we will now have different classes of the wretched, and it does nothing to address the crisis that compels so many …..."

Oral Answers to Questions

Deprivation of Citizenship Orders (Effect during Appeal) Bill

"I am sure the Minister understands that due process is important and appreciates that the appeals process must be respected fully.

Middle East

"If I heard the Foreign Secretary correctly, he said that the UK would act if Iran sought to block the strait of Hormuz. Did he mean “act militarily”? In what other conditions would he consider military action, and what would he say if the Americans turned to this Government and …..."
