Chris Bryant – 2022 Parliamentary Question on Sanctioning of Carrie Lam
The parliamentary question asked by Chris Bryant, the Labour MP for the Rhondda, in the House of Commons on 17 November 2022.
Chris Bryant (Rhondda) (Lab)
Putin’s aggression was allowed to prosper for too long—ever since 2008, one could argue—so I completely support what the Prime Minister has said and done in support of Ukraine against the barbarism of the Russian Federation. On China, I understand the realpolitik of the past week, but the concentration camps in the Xinjiang province continue, as does the genocide, and the suppression of human rights in Hong Kong continues. May I ask the Prime Minister to do one thing, which the United States of America has already done: sanction Carrie Lam?
The Prime Minister
I am pleased that the United Kingdom has led efforts to hold China to account, including by imposing sanctions on senior Chinese officials and mobilising international support to hold China to account at the United Nations. As hon. Members have heard, we will use dialogue as an opportunity to raise the concerns that we have on Xinjiang and other human rights abuses as we see them.

The comments made by Chris Bryant, the Labour MP for the Rhondda, on Twitter on 3 November 2022.
Wow the bots, trolls and bullies are really out in force at the moment. As I said yesterday, nobody is going to bully me into silence. You can hurl all the abuse, homophobic and otherwise, and it won’t make the blindest difference. I will always call out intimidation.

The Scottish Government is responsible for defining the entitlement criteria for these passported benefits. They will need to consider the current eligibility criteria and make arrangements to ensure that they can continue to deliver these benefits as Universal Credit is introduced.
There is ongoing engagement between the Scottish Government and the Department for Work and Pensions to ensure that any solution is simple, fair, easy to understand and affordable.
