Debate on the Address: [1st day] (10 May 2022)
Keir Starmer: Before I turn to the Address, I thank His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales for delivering the Address this morning. I, too, pay tribute to Her Majesty in the year of her platinum jubilee. Her dedication to Britain has been a reassuring constant in an ever-changing world, her commitment to public duty a reminder of the responsibilities that we all owe each other, and her dignity and...
Prime Minister: Engagements (27 Apr 2022)
Keir Starmer: I know the Prime Minister has whipped his Back Benchers to scream and shout, and that is fine, but I hope he has also sent a clear message that there is no place for sexism and misogyny or for looking down on people because of where they come from, in his party, in this House, or in modern Britain. Next year, the UK is set for the slowest growth and the highest inflation in the G7. Why is the...
Referral of Prime Minister to Committee of Privileges (21 Apr 2022)
Chris Matheson: .... Earlier, the leader of the SNP, the right hon. Member for Ross, Skye and Lochaber (Ian Blackford), reflected the words of my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer) about the Prime Minister’s modus operandi: he leaves a trail of chaos in his wake and lets other people pick up and take responsibility for the problems that he has caused. The...
Points of Order (21 Apr 2022)
Keir Starmer: On a point of order, Mr Speaker. The Prime Minister’s comments on Tuesday night to his Back Benchers were briefed to journalists by his spokesperson. Those comments were reasonably interpreted by several media outlets, including The Daily Telegraph, as being criticisms of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the BBC for their comments on and coverage of Ukraine. Ministers were out on broadcast...

Easter Recess: Government Update (19 Apr 2022)
Keir Starmer: What a joke! Even now, as the latest mealy-mouthed apology stumbles out of one side of the Prime Minister’s mouth, a new set of deflections and distortions pours from the other. But the damage is already done. The public have made up their minds. They do not believe a word that the Prime Minister says. They know what he is. As ever with this Prime Minister, those close to him find...
Written Answers — Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: P&O Ferries: Redundancy (19 Apr 2022)
Justin Madders: To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, with reference to the Prime Minister's oral answer to the Rt Hon Keir Starmer MP on 23rd March 2022 when he confirmed legal action was being taken against P & O ferries under the Trade Union and labour relations act 1992 and the Employment Rights Act 1996, if he will confirm (a) the nature of the legal actions...
Speaker’s Statement (19 Apr 2022)
Lindsay Hoyle: ...today’s business, I wish to make a short statement. I have received letters from a number of hon. and right hon. Members, including the right hon. and learned Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer), the Leader of the Opposition, requesting that I give precedence to a matter as an issue of privilege. The matter is the Prime Minister’s statements to the House regarding...
Prime Minister: Engagements (30 Mar 2022)
Keir Starmer: May I start by joining the Prime Minister in his remarks in relation to the hon. Member for Bridgend (Dr Wallis)? Does the Prime Minister still think that he and the Chancellor are tax-cutting Conservatives?

Prime Minister: Engagements (23 Mar 2022)
Keir Starmer: Eight hundred loyal British workers fired over Zoom, instantly replaced by foreign agency workers shipped in on less than the minimum wage—if the Prime Minister cannot stop that, what is the point of his Government?

Health and Care Bill - Report (4th Day) (Continued): Amendment 184ZBA (16 Mar 2022)
Lord Blencathra: ...trying to define your biological sex more may result in entering a strange alternative universe. However, of course, there is always a man who can cut through all that nonsense and define a woman. Keir Starmer was able to pronounce that trans women are women; that is the answer of a lawyer, not a doctor. No, Sir Keir: men can legally change their gender and call themselves trans women, but...
Private Rented Sector Housing: Welsh Local Authorities (15 Mar 2022)
Gerald Jones: ...free school meal, supported by Welsh Labour Government funding and delivered with a real sense of commitment—not, as my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer) told the Welsh Labour conference on Saturday, after “a last-minute U-turn after a really good kicking from a Premier League striker”, which was the case in England. In Torfaen, Welsh...

Public Service Pensions and Judicial Offices Bill [HL] - Commons Amendments: Motion on Amendments 1 to 47 (9 Mar 2022)
Lord Leigh of Hurley: ...public policies for adopting “their own pseudo foreign policies against countries which with nauseating frequency turns out to be Israel.” To his credit, in 2021, the Labour leader, Sir Keir Starmer, stated that: “Labour does not—and will not—support BDS.” I hope that Amendment 54 will receive full support from all Members of this House, and that all Members of this House will...
Prime Minister: Engagements (9 Mar 2022)
Keir Starmer: The typical energy bill is going up by £700 next month, and that is because of pressures before Russia invaded Ukraine. What is the Chancellor’s solution? A forced £200 loan for every household, to be paid back in mandatory instalments over five years. The big gamble behind that policy was that energy costs would drop quickly after a short spike. That bet now looks certain to fail. When...
National Insurance Contributions Increase (8 Mar 2022)
Keir Starmer: On a point of order, Mr Speaker. Every one of us has been moved by the bravery, the resolve and the leadership of President Zelensky. Invading troops marched through his streets, shells rained down on his people and assassins seek his life. No one would have blamed him for fleeing, but instead he has stayed in Kyiv to lead the Ukrainian people and to fight. He has reminded us that our freedom...
Economic Crime (Transparency and Enforcement) Bill: Clause 1 - Overview (7 Mar 2022)
Paul Scully: ...finalising the Bill in the Lords. I therefore ask that the other amendments in this area are not pressed. On new clause 7, tabled by the right hon. and learned Member for Holborn and St Pancras (Keir Starmer), it would serve little purpose to introduce new legislation at the end of this parliamentary Session as it would actively harm the quality of the measures we are introducing in the...
Prime Minister: Engagements (2 Mar 2022)
Keir Starmer: I am very glad the ambassador is here to hear me repeat what I have said to him privately on a number of occasions, which is that this House and this country stand united in our support for the Ukrainian people in the face of Russian aggression. We are all appalled by the shocking footage that has emerged over the last few days. We must stand up to Putin and those who prop up his regime....
