Nick Gibb: These are matters for His Majesty’s Chief Inspector, Amanda Spielman. I have asked her to write to the hon. Member for Twickenham directly and a copy of her reply will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
Munira Wilson: Last week, the new Met Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley came to Twickenham to meet community representatives. He said that one of the biggest pressures facing his officers is dealing with large numbers of mental health cases; sometimes, multiple officers are spending entire shifts with people in mental health crisis because the NHS does not have a bed for them. Will the Minister outline...
Munira Wilson: I thank Members for participating in the debate. I was told there was a delicious irony in the Member for Twickenham talking about football; I think there is a delicious irony in the fact that four of the seven Members present do not represent English constituencies, but also congratulate the Lionesses and wish them well. I am pleased to see the Scots enjoying English victory. I thank Members...
Munira Wilson: ...schools and colleges across the country looking after actual children are struggling to make ends meet. One London headteacher has scrapped plans for mental health counsellors, a headteacher in Twickenham is no longer filling teaching assistant vacancies and another is axing school trips. Will the Prime Minister give pupils and parents a cast-iron guarantee that in next week’s autumn...
Richard Holden: ...the hon. Member for Richmond Park (Sarah Olney) on securing this debate and on her informative, constructive speech. It has been a well-attended debate, with contributions from the hon. Members for Twickenham (Munira Wilson), for Edinburgh West (Christine Jardine), for Strangford (Jim Shannon), for Livingston (Hannah Bardell), for West Dunbartonshire (Martin Docherty-Hughes), for...
Esther McVey: ...families right across the country. The hon. Member for Stretford and Urmston (Kate Green) wanted support for her Healthy Start scheme (take-up) Bill, which is coming forward. The hon. Member for Twickenham (Munira Wilson) focused on free school meals and how we can help those most in need. Looking for solutions and moving forward, my hon. Friend the Member for Cirencester and Tewkesbury...
Tim Farron: ...price achievable on the open market. This situation has been illuminated by the case of Teddington police station, a publicly owned asset in the constituency of my hon. Friend the Member for Twickenham (Munira Wilson), where local residents have thrown their support behind a bid to turn what is now a disused building into affordable housing and new premises for a GP’s surgery, so that...
Kelly Tolhurst: It is a great honour to be here today responding on behalf of the Government in my new role. I want to start by thanking the hon. Member for Twickenham (Munira Wilson) for securing what is an important debate. I agree 100%. Also, I have never had the opportunity to say this directly to him, but let me say in my role here that what the hon. Member for Denton and Reddish (Andrew Gwynne) and...
Stella Creasy: ..., it requires a national solution. Frankly, it requires our local authorities and our local police to support them, and not to say it is acceptable for only Ealing, Bournemouth, Manchester and Twickenham to have gone through this process.
Munira Wilson: ...Health and Social Care, what steps her Department is taking to provide all children who have type one diabetes with (a) insulin pumps and (b) continuous glucose monitoring through the NHS in (i) Twickenham constituency and (ii) England.
Jim Shannon: ...enterprises do the same? They cannot. The Government and the Minister must reach out and help. Those businesses are facing electricity bills at four times the previous rate. The hon. Member for Twickenham (Munira Wilson) referred to an increase of almost 550%. How can anybody absorb that? That is impossible. The price of goods is up massively. Businesses are fighting to stay alive. The...
Jonathan Gullis: I refer the hon. Member for Twickenham to the answer given by my right hon. Friend, the former Minister of State for School Standards on 30 June 2022 to Question 25988.
Tom Hunt: ...much affection the people of Ipswich had for Her late Majesty, they would need to have been in Ipswich on the weekend of the jubilee. We have heard today that, apparently, more parties were held in Twickenham than anywhere else in the country, but I am not entirely sure about that. I am not sure what the measurement was, but I think Ipswich was definitely strongly up there. All communities...
Munira Wilson: I rise to present a petition on behalf of 27 residents of Wharf House in Twickenham and a further 40 residents of Carlton House, Camera House and Shepperton House in Teddington. They are among the estimated 400,000 Londoners, many of whom live in social housing, who have been left unprotected by the Ofgem energy price cap because their homes are connected to communal heat networks. The...
Marsha de Cordova: ...Foxcroft), for Putney (Fleur Anderson) and for Stockport (Navendu Mishra), and the hon. Members for Meon Valley (Mrs Drummond), for Bath (Wera Hobhouse), for Taunton Deane (Rebecca Pow) and for Twickenham (Munira Wilson), and many other Members made powerful interventions. The petition, which was signed by more than 100,000 people, is about preserving and protecting student choice, and...
Robert Halfon: ...more than 100 times since being elected as an MP. FE colleges are special places that transform people’s lives, especially for those from disadvantaged backgrounds. I regard the hon. Member for Twickenham (Munira Wilson) as an hon. Friend, and she is right that there are too many Education Secretaries. We put great emphasis on the NHS and the economy, and I accept that we need to do...
Sadiq Khan: ...a long-term capital funding agreement with the Government, TfL will deliver improvements in East Sheen town centre and around East Sheen Primary School. TfL will also make London Road roundabout in Twickenham safer with new push-button green-person crossings on all arms of the roundabout. TfL continues to support outer London boroughs in the delivery of the cycle network, including Kew...
Wendy Chamberlain: ...is £69.70 per week. We do not accept jobs that pay less than £2 per hour, so why do we think it is acceptable to ask unpaid carers to accept that? Earlier, when my hon. Friend the Member for Twickenham (Munira Wilson) spoke in support of her ten-minute rule Bill on kinship care, she talked about the instinct to want to help a family member in need. No matter how much we love our family,...
Robin Walker: ...and examinations regulation. Discussion about sensitivities in exam specifications is a matter for Ofqual. I have asked its Chief Regulator, Dr Jo Saxton, to write to the hon. Member for Twickenham and a copy of her reply will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
Caroline Pidgeon: Will you look to increase bus capacity on route 481 to help students and staff who attend Turing House School in Twickenham?
