Ed Davey

Liberal Democrat — Kingston and Surbiton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 February 2026

Debate

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor

Contribution

I am grateful for that intervention. We must build a culture of transparency and accountability; I think that is essential. I hope that we as a House will look at ending the archaic “negative privilege” rules that Paul Flynn spoke about, and remove the bandages from our mouths. Today, we are free of those bandages, when it comes to Andrew. Our motion focuses on finally getting out the truth about his role as a special representative for trade and investment.
