...Scotland would vote to rejoin the European Union. Given that level of support for the EU, I note with some sorrow Labour’s pro-Brexit position alongside the Tories, most recently articulated by Keir Starmer when he was in Scotland at the weekend. To finish where I started, the Scottish Government are fundamentally opposed to the Bill and have lodged with the Scottish Parliament this very...
Kaukab Stewart: ...on the basis of their skills, training, ability and commitment to do the job, and will he join me in commending the wonderful NHS staff of all nationalities—in particular, in the light of Keir Starmer’s troubling and short-sighted claims that the United Kingdom is recruiting too many foreigners into the NHS? [ Interruption .]
Ian Murray: ...a general election. The choice is between the people who caused it in the first place, and a credible Labour party, led by my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer), ready to give this country a fresh start. The reason that SNP Members do not want a UK Labour Government is that they know it shoots their independence goose. The UK Government’s...
Lindsay Hoyle: We now come to the Leader of the Opposition, Keir Starmer.
Sarah Jones: ...a Labour Government, and I agree. The hon. Member for Glasgow East (David Linden) said some most peculiar things about my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer). It might be helpful to reassure him of the policies that we would introduce in government. We believe in decent pay and conditions, and the new deal of the deputy leader of the Labour...
Baroness Smith of Basildon: ...breach, or did it come to light only after being reported by somebody else? Secondly—I was surprised this question was not answered by the Prime Minister in the House of Commons yesterday, when Keir Starmer asked it, so I will ask it again—have officials raised any concerns about Rishi Sunak’s decision to reappoint Suella Braverman as Home Secretary?
Lindsay Hoyle: Let us come to the Leader of the Opposition, Keir Starmer.
Angus Robertson: ...very clear: with Labour, Britain will not go back into the EU. We will not be joining the single market. We will not be joining a customs union.” That is the bad news, but there is better news. Keir Starmer also pledged that “Labour would eliminate most border checks created by the Tory Brexit deal”.
David Torrance: ...and E while they wait for hospital beds. People who have needed an ambulance have been left waiting because the ambulances have been waiting for transfers of patients. Only this week, we all heard Keir Starmer’s determined and short-sighted answer when he was asked about rejoining the EU: “It’s a straight no”. That shows that Labour and the Tories are increasingly two sides of the...
Paul McLennan: ...group, the UK Trade and Business Commission, said that “recovering lost trade with Europe should be a top priority” as the country enters a recession. This is a Labour debate. Unbelievably, Keir Starmer, in his own words, wants to “make Brexit work”. Brexit does not work and it will not work. There are no Brexit opportunities. I will give any Labour MSP who wants to stand up and...
Baroness Fox of Buckley: My Lords, there is nervousness about using the word “woman”. Last night at the PinkNews Awards, Keir Starmer declared that he would make it a crime to misgender. That means people might use the word “woman”, but nobody will define what a woman is. Maybe that nervousness is because people are frightened of misgendering and getting dragged into the gender wars. Can the Minister assure...

Toby Perkins: ...in the national interest, and not just in the narrow interest of their party. That means we need a Labour Government led by my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer). We need that general election now.
Ian Murray: ...practical for the Labour party, who wish to be the next Government, to try and make Brexit work. The first day that my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer) walks into No. 10 as the Prime Minister, he is going to face the circumstances of the day, not those that we may wish to find. The first task will be to make what we have got work, the...
