Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 October 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

My starting point for these amendments is: have the Conservatives finally accepted responsibility for the fact that asylum seekers are being housed in hotels, at huge cost to the taxpayer? When we hear a full apology from the noble Baroness on behalf of her party, and acceptance of responsibility for dealing with this challenge, then—and only then—will we take her proposals seriously.
