John must defy the doubters and demonstrate some leadership qualities in establishing a Citizens’ Convention to debate Scotland’s future.

John must also declare that without a resultant referendum prior to the next General Election, that election will become a de facto referendum.

Just for the record, every member of parliament is equal in their security to me.

Unfortunately, I'm sorry that people don't think I'm doing that.

We’re taking over the Strait.

Against the backdrop of aid cuts and multiple crises, the UK has the opportunity to support communities around the world, without costing the UK Taxpayer a penny. The Treasury need to get behind my bill, and not get in the way, for a…

The police have cautioned against speculating about the case. That is the right thing to do for Ann’s family and friends.

It is also vital that the police are given the space they need to carry out their work.

On the subject of deporting foreign criminals, the government intends to bring forward an amendment to this bill in response to the widely-reported case of the vile grooming gang leader Shabir Ahmed.

Our amendment will provide the home secretary with a new power to disapply Section 7 of the Immigration Act 1971 for serious criminals.

The home secretary has been absolutely clear that this government will take action to see Shabir Ahmed removed, and we’ve seen the success that she has had when it comes to removals in previous cases.

The Home Office website tells us there have been well over 150 pieces of primary legislation or policy changes on immigration since 1988 - and I've been in the House for some of them.

Each one was accompanied by the same round assertions that the Home Secretary has said this afternoon that they would bring fairness to our immigration system, fairness to our asylum system. They did not.

They simply took away rights and treated people badly.

My goal as Home Secretary is to rebuild the public's confidence and thereby ensure we can continue providing protection to those in need today and for generations to come.

To do so, I believe we must restore fairness to our asylum system, fairness both to those who are fleeing war and persecution, and also fairness towards those communities already here who bear the burden of supporting them.

There is nothing fair about a system that is based upon uncontrolled, unsafe and illegal routes into this country.
