On Thursday, a historic market cross in one of my constituency's town centres was demolished. The cross has long been an important centrepiece of the town. I am in contact with the town council to establish how this can be resolved swiftly.

Darren Jones claims he "did not receive £1 in money from Labour Together". However, just so that everyone understands, below is Darren Jones' entry in the Register of Members' Financial Interests from just before the General Election. It is often the case that Members must declare items of support that do not financially benefit them, but which we use to help us do our jobs. They are declared as people should be aware of these declarations, so they can judge for themselves any influence it may have on a Member's judgment…

Some newspapers have today have blamed Jemima Goldsmith for an injunction suppressing the free speech of a person who subjected her to antisemitic abuse. It is very important that we do not inadvertently blame the victims of Russell Brand's violence. I had this to say in the House today👇🏻

Peter Murrell has now been exposed as a thief. However, this SNP scandal exposes deep rot at the heart of the Scottish establishment and a chain of events that ultimately led to the untimely death of Alex Salmond. Watch my full speech here 👇🏻

In 1987, at Loughgall, the SAS stopped eight murderous IRA killers. The actions of the SAS that day no doubt saved innocent lives. Yet now, decades after the event, our brave veterans face relentless legal persecution. Here's what really happened on that day in 1987👇🏻

In 1987, at Loughgall - the greatest single defeat of the IRA by the SAS - eight heavily armed IRA murderers attacked Loughgall police station with a 400-pound bomb and automatic weapons. The SAS shot the eight terrorists dead. One of the IRA members killed was Patrick Kelly. Intelligence linked Kelly personally to at least five killings, including the murders of two UDR soldiers. The Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Hilary Benn, has now promised a sister of this same terrorist a new inquest into the events at Loughgall. One of Patrick Kelly's family have said, "I have never denied that my brother went out to blow up a barracks…. but they were unmanned barracks. He went out to blow up, not to kill." This is absurd. Immediately after the bomb detonated, they fired battlefield-calibre weapons at the building, no doubt in the expectation of killing any policeman who emerged. We should not be facilitating attempts to rewrite history by the IRA at the expense of our veterans.

Tony Blair attempted to impose 90 days detention without charge, and, thankfully, we defeated him. Today, Starmer wants to impose digital ID and effectively abolish jury trials for all offenders, and I appeal to all those who believe in the rule of law to help us stop it.

The Government is potentially in contempt of Parliament. By failing to publish unredacted documents, they are failing to abide by the Humble Address on Lord Mandelson's appointment as our Ambassador to the US. This is unacceptable, and unless the Government stops the obfuscation, I will raise the matter as a matter of contempt. I reminded the House that the now PM, Keir Starmer, established a precedent for this in December 2018, when he secured a motion holding the then-Government in contempt.

For centuries, one of the most important features of Britain's freedom of speech is the absolute right to criticise religion. Freedom of speech is fundamental to everything we have and everything we stand for. I regret Keir Starmer did not make that clear to Mr Ali at PMQs.

Westminster Bridge. Finsbury Park. Jo Cox. David Amess. All of those attacks were carried out by self-radicalised single psychopaths. The PM is being disingenuous by calling this a new threat. I made this very point to the Home Secretary at yesterday's statement 👇🏻

I have yet again asked the Government to proscribe the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). This is now the sixth time I have raised this issue in parliament. Thousands of Iranian citizens are being killed; the Government must take action now.

In Northern Ireland, our veterans were held to the highest standard of law. The IRA were not. They tortured and killed men, women, and children alike. Labour’s plan to scrap the Legacy Act betrays our veterans. My question on this at today's PMQs.

It is time for the Government to allow Shamima Begum, and others like her, to return to the UK from Northern Syria. Failing to do so risks turning their children into tomorrow's terrorists. This is what I told the Deputy Foreign Secretary today 👇

Our special forces are some of the best in the world, yet their morale is being weakened and their effectiveness blunted by baseless, bogus, and pernicious lawfare. Today, I asked the Prime Minister what he is going to do about it 👇🏻

Labour is pushing through its dangerous Digital ID scheme. Today’s Budget confirmed it will cost AT LEAST £1.8bn. It will do nothing to stop illegal immigration or illegal working. It is utter madness and must be stopped.

Al Carns is absolutely right here 👇 Our veterans in Northern Ireland did nothing but their duty in defeating the IRA terrorists. We cannot now let the IRA achieve their aims through political concessions by persecuting our own soldiers. This element of the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill must be stopped.

Our Special Forces are among the best in the world. If we continue to harangue them through the courts on the word of our enemies, we will cripple their ability to defend us. I raised this point with Julia Hartley-Brewer on Talk earlier today.

The introduction of Voter ID has been shown to reduce turnout. This is bad for our democracy. Today I raised my concerns about the policy with the Minister in the Urgent Question debate.

The Government's digital ID scheme is deeply un-British, according to their own experts will make our data less secure, and hands the Government vast surveillance capabilities that we have seen they can and will misuse for their own ends.
