Mr David Lammy

Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 16 September 2025

Debate

Sentencing Bill

Contribution

My hon. Friend knows that in my previous role, I unfortunately saw the increased risk of state threats and the pedagogy through which states are committing those crimes. It is absolutely right that a cohort of young men—petty criminals—are being used, and not just by Russia; there are other states that we could mention as well. It is important that those crimes are dealt with.
