All-party Parliamentary Groups (19 Jul 2023)

Tim Loughton: ...of China’s abuse of human rights not just in Tibet but in Xinjiang and beyond. I chair, too, the all-party group on photography. I took that role on after the murder of our former colleague Sir David Amess. Because I was the next named officer, very shortly after his murder I was, disgracefully, contacted by the registrar to say, “You must have an EGM within 30 days to appoint a new...

Points of Order (10 Jul 2023)

Andy McDonald: ...through the streets of Teesside and lynched.” That has deeply upset and alarmed my family and me. I have reported the matter appropriately, but given the murders in recent years of Jo Cox, of Sir David Amess and of Andrew Pennington, Nigel Jones’s personal aide, and not forgetting the stabbing of our right hon. Friend the Member for East Ham (Sir Stephen Timms), I seek your guidance...

Mental Health In-patient Services: Improving Safety - Statement ( 3 Jul 2023)

...on behalf of their constituents. Of course, we should all remember the important contribution of the former Member for Southend West, and a great friend to many across this house, the late Sir David Amess. He tabled a Westminster Hall debate on mental health services in Essex back in 2014, and he was a passionate campaigner for improving mental health care. I know he is very much in our...

Business of the House (29 Jun 2023)

Ian Mearns: ...from the Health and Social Care Committee, “Workforce: recruitment, training and retention in health and social care”.

As chair of the all-party group for football...

Mental Health In-patient Services: Improving Safety (28 Jun 2023)

Mark Francois: I thank the Secretary of State for mentioning our great friend Sir David Amess. I am sure that, if he were still with us today, he would welcome this statement, as do I, as does his successor and, as is clear, as do all other Essex MPs. The Secretary of State has done the right thing and should be commended. EPUT has been a troubled organisation for some time, although I believe that its...

Machetes: Consultation (18 Apr 2023)

Mark Francois: If I can make a non-partisan point for a moment, the whole House knows that our late friend and colleague Sir David Amess was murdered with a bladed weapon, so I would like to pay tribute to his proactive successor, my hon. Friend the Member for Southend West (Anna Firth), for campaigning on this issue, evidently with some success. Can the Minister assure us that, on so-called zombie...

Backbench Business: Easter Adjournment (30 Mar 2023)

Marcus Jones: .... I congratulate my hon. Friend the Member for Harrow East (Bob Blackman) on the excellent speech with which he opened the debate. It was absolutely in the spirit of the late, great Sir David Amess; I think he would have thought that you did him proud. My hon. Friend did say that he would not have as many subjects as Sir David, but I think that is possibly not the case, if I may mention...

Commonwealth Day — [Mr James Gray in the Chair] (21 Mar 2023)

James Duddridge: ...Lifaka, who at the time was chair of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association and Deputy Speaker in Cameroon and has since sadly passed away; there was also a glancing reference to the late Sir David Amess, my parliamentary neighbour. My hon. Friend the Member for Bridgwater and West Somerset, in characteristic form, was praiseful; he said that Sir David made a lot of “good points”....

Animals (Low Welfare Activities Abroad) Bill (17 Mar 2023)

Anna Firth: ...to debate two Bills that will help to improve the lives of animals. As a patron of the brilliant Conservative Animal Welfare Foundation, a position also held by my much-loved predecessor Sir David Amess, I know of the struggles that animals have had to endure both here and abroad. I pay tribute to the founders of that organisation, Lorraine and Chris Platt—I see Lorraine in the Public...

Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill: Clause 2 - Animals to which the import prohibition relates (17 Mar 2023)

Alex Sobel: ...partner Jane Evans and his friend Eduardo Gonçalves, who have worked tirelessly on the campaign and have been a particular help to me. I also echo Members across the House in their tribute to Sir David Amess and his work on this matter. Like the hon. Member for Crawley (Henry Smith) and people across the country, I was shocked and horrified at the killing of Cecil the lion by an American...

Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Turkey and Syria Earthquakes (14 Mar 2023)

Mark Menzies: ...to members of the British-Turkish community to learn about the ongoing aid effort to help those impacted by the disaster. I was also fortunate to visit Gaziantep in 2019 with our late friend Sir David Amess, where I met families displaced by the war in Syria. It is heartbreaking to see so many of these people having to rebuild their lives once again. Will my right hon. Friend commit to...

International Women’s Day - Motion to Take Note (10 Mar 2023)

Baroness Fall: ...all too common in public life. No one should live in fear of doing their job, yet the terrible tragedy is that many do. I pay tribute again today to our much-respected late colleagues Jo Cox and David Amess. Those in public life deserve respect, but that respect must also be earned. It starts here in Westminster by ensuring the highest standards of behaviour and integrity. Unless we...

International Women’s Day ( 9 Mar 2023)

Maria Caulfield: ...for the work that she did. My right hon. Friend the Member for Chelmsford (Vicky Ford) said that there is a special place in heaven for men who stand up for women. Today I want to remember Sir David Amess, who usually spoke in these debates; I think particularly of his work on endometriosis. I am sure that he would be very pleased to see his successor, my hon. Friend the Member for...

Scottish Parliament: Chinese State Surveillance (23 Feb 2023)

Audrey Nicoll: ....” Scotland is a safe place to live in, but the United Kingdom is not immune from the threat that is posed by bad actors. Many of us will recall the tragic terrorist murders of Jo Cox MP and David Amess MP, and the radicalisation of British citizens and their recruitment to Daesh during the Syrian conflict. The current threat level for the UK is “substantial”, which means that an...

Prevent: Independent Review ( 8 Feb 2023)

Yvette Cooper: ...what we share in common—from the appalling Manchester attack on children at a concert, to the attack on Fishmongers’ Hall on London Bridge, to the murder of some of our own colleagues: David Amess by an Islamist extremist, and Jo Cox by a far right extremist. Most recently, there was also the bomb attempt against the Dover border centre. We should condemn terrorist and extremist...

Public Bill Committee: Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill: Clause 1 - Import prohibition (25 Jan 2023)

Henry Smith: ...offered me; to the team in the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for their support to me; and to the Government Whips Office. Sadly, in October 2021, our dear late colleague Sir David Amess was murdered. This is an issue that he campaigned on in the last week of his life, and I dedicate this Committee sitting to his memory and fine legacy. [Hon. Members: “Hear, hear.”]

Iran (12 Jan 2023)

Jim Shannon: ...the will of the Iranian people. They see the end in sight, and we have a duty in this Parliament to support their will in any way we can. Let me finally take a moment to recall our colleague Sir David Amess. For many years, Sir David used words in our debates to support the Iranian people’s right to bring about change and live in a free and democratic society. 2023 could be the year in...
