The comments made by James Cartlidge, the Justice Minister, on 19 April 2022.
As we continue to build a justice system that works for all, the National Archive’s new service is a vital step towards better transparency. It will ensure court judgments are easily accessible to anyone who needs them.
Our first official Government record of judgments is a modern one-stop-shop that will benefit everyone, from lawyers and judges to academics, journalists and members of the public.
The comments made by Grant Shapps, the Secretary of State for Transport, on 19 April 2022.
For the first time ever, operators across the rail industry are coming together to help passengers facing rising costs of living by offering up to 50% off more than a million tickets on journeys across Britain.
There’s no better time to visit friends, family or just explore our great country, so book your tickets today.
The comments made by Denis MacShane, the then Minister of State for Europe, in the House of Commons on 20 July 2004.
The failure of the Belarussian Government to adhere to European standards in respect of human rights, freedom of expression and democracy in Belarus remains a matter of concern to the Government. It is too early to assess the likely conduct of the elections. We have made clear to the Belarussian Government that we expect the authorities in Minsk to ensure that the elections are free and fair and that international observers will be invited.
The comments made by Alistair Darling, the then Chief Secretary to the Treasury, in the House of Commons on 27 November 1997.
The Government have made it clear that they intend to keep the existing arrangements. The Government’s position was clearly set out in the two White Papers on which the referendum campaigns in Scotland and Wales were fought and won.
The comments made by Nadine Dorries, the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, on 17 April 2022.
The time has come to properly protect people online and this week MPs will debate the most important legislation in the internet age.
Our groundbreaking Online Safety Bill will make the UK the safest place to surf the web. It has been significantly strengthened following a lengthy period of engagement with people in politics, wider society and industry.
We want to arm everyone with the skills to navigate the internet safely, so today we’re also announcing a funding boost and plans for experts to join forces with the government to help people spot dodgy information online.
The comments made by Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister, on 17 April 2022.
As we face threats to our peace and prosperity from autocratic states, it is vital that democracies and friends stick together. India, as a major economic power and the world’s largest democracy, is a highly valued strategic partner for the UK in these uncertain times.
My visit to India will deliver on the things that really matter to the people of both our nations – from job creation and economic growth, to energy security and defence.
The comments made by Greg Hands, the Energy Minister, on 15 April 2022.
While we value the right to peaceful protest, it is crucial that these do not cause disruption to people’s everyday lives.
That’s why I’m pleased to see oil companies taking action to secure injunctions at their sites, working with local police forces to arrest those who break the law and ensure deliveries of fuel can continue as normal.
The comments made by Barbara Castle, the then Minister for Transport, in the House of Commons on 24 January 1968.
Thomas Cook and Son Ltd. are a valuable national asset which must continue to be maintained and vigorously developed. I have every confidence in the ability and determination of the Company’s Chairman, his Board and staff to do this. The transfer of most of the Transport Holding Company’s other existing assets to the new bodies to be set up as a consequence of the proposals in the Transport Bill now before the House may, however, later make it desirable to make new arrangements for the continued control in the public sector of the Holding Company’s holdings in Thomas Cook. This is under consideration.
The comments made by Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, on 12 April 2022.
I’m determined to tackle all forms of violence in our capital and keeping Londoners safe will always be my top priority.
That’s why I welcome this major new research commissioned by my Violence Reduction Unit, which shines a light on a form of hidden harm.
It’s crucial we have a joined-up approach to tackling this issue because I want all Londoners, including parents and carers, to have confidence in reporting concerns so that services can intervene much earlier and provide the support families need and deserve.
The comments made by Anna Soubry, the former Conservative MP for Broxtowe, on Twitter on 14 April 2022.
This is a grotesque plan. Announced today for no other reason than to save the political skin of law breaking liar #BorisJohnson It’s dog whistle politics at its worst. Utterly ashamed at what our country has become. #RefugeesWelcome
