Most recent appearances
- Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister: Strategic Defence Review (Green Paper) (3 Feb 2010) has video
“Bernard Gray found that too many types of equipment were being ordered for too many tasks at too high a specification. Is it not a great sadness that the Government have only just commissioned this review, having been in office for so long? Does not the Secretary of State feel that some of the problems in defence lie at the very heart of his Department?”
- Oral Answers to Questions — Work and Pensions: Afghanistan and Yemen (1 Feb 2010) has video
“Do not the peace and reintegration programme and the Peace and Reintegration Trust Fund represent a dramatic shift in Government policy? Are we not attempting to buy some aspects of the enemy? Given that we have now reached that point, why did we not reach it earlier? How many British lives would have been saved if the Government had examined that option more closely earlier?”
- Opposition Day — [3rd Allotted Day]: Dementia Services (27 Jan 2010) has video
“I am grateful that you have called me, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I feel that it would be churlish if I did not congratulate the Secretary of State on his 40th birthday, although sadly he has now left the Chamber.”
