Governments around the world are now trying to imitate the UK Rwanda policy for tackling illegal people trafficking. This bill must be as legally robust as possible - and the right course is to adopt the amendments.
Almost 80 years after the end of the Second World War it is shocking to hear nakedly anti-Semitic chants on the streets of London today. There are people who plainly want to ignore the Hamas massacre of October 7. They want to wipe Israel off the map. That is what they were chanting for today. They must not and will not succeed. I thank the police for all their efforts to keep people safe - but we must all do more, because an ancient hatred is rising again in Europe. It must be stamped out.
Happy Independence Day folks! Remember Brexit has already helped deliver all kinds of benefits - from new free trade deals to the fastest vaccine roll out in Europe. We are doing things differently - from genomic editing to regulation of financial services. 🧵1/3
Fantastic energy in the room for the opening reception at the 40th @IDUAlliance conference.
Let’s back democracy against autocracy everywhere we find it.
As we have seen in the last few days there are a number of questions around the make up of the panel, their pre-declared views of Boris and their own conduct.
I believe Boris has made a huge contribution to politics, and this country, and am confident he will be back.
In years to come people will look back on this whole episode in amazement. The conclusions of the report clearly go way too far. Every journalist, commentator and politician who has rang my phone incessantly since 9am accepts this. Few are brave enough enough to say publicly.
I am amazed at the harshness of today’s report by the Privileges Committee. I believed Boris before and I believe him today. This punishment is absolutely extraordinary to the point of sheer vindictiveness, and I will vote against this report on Monday.
