Ticket Price Regulation: Live Events

"If there were transparency—if people were getting a sort of fan package and their dinner was involved as well, and there were other extras on top—we could perhaps understand why, but this mysterious tiered pricing, when there is no difference between the two, other than one is called premium and …..."

Ticket Price Regulation: Live Events

"I want to flashback to the summer of 2024: Labour back in power, and echoes of ’90s Britpop with an Oasis reunion. Alas, the latter is only remembered now for the ticket price rip-off that happened, with endless online queues and ever-inflating ticket prices during the transaction process. And then …..."

Written Question
Biometrics
Tuesday 8th September 2026

Asked by: Rupa Huq (Labour - Ealing Central and Acton)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether processes are in place to manually decouple British citizens' biometric profiles from persons of interest once a false-positive match can be established at e-gates.

Answered by Jo White - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office)

The eGates check biometric details of passengers against their passports, whilst a separate biographic check is made against watchlists of persons of interest.

Where a watchlist match is subsequently assessed as a false positive, capability to further distinguish between subjects of interest and false positive matches is restricted to a limited number of watchlist entry types. The Home Office continues to invest in improvements to identity matching and identification processes to reduce false positive matches.

Israel: Detainees
Thursday 3rd September 2026

Asked by: Rupa Huq (Labour - Ealing Central and Acton)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions he has had with his Israeli counterpart on the use of the Unlawful Combatants Law to detain Palestinian doctors.

Answered by Stephen Doughty - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

The UK government has regularly engaged with Israeli counterparts to express deep concern about the detention and treatment in detention of Palestinian doctors and other detainees. We have been consistently clear that all detainees, including doctors, must be treated with dignity and in full accordance with international law we have been clear that any allegations of torture or mistreatment must be thoroughly investigated.
