Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 June 2025

Debate

Ethics and Integrity Commission

Contribution

My Lords, we should discuss bookshelves. As for what we are doing, we have taken immediate action, but we want to make sure that, given how important ethics and integrity are in public life, and especially as—and I think the noble Lord agrees—one of the main ways in which we can challenge and counter the politics of populism is to make sure that people can genuinely trust their politicians, we need to make sure that the structures we put in place work and are right and effective. We are working on it, and I will update the House in due course.
