Labour — Bridgend

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 November 2026

Debate

Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting

Contribution

I have huge respect for the right hon. Gentleman—he is a former Deputy Prime Minister of this country. I do not, however, agree with him on the path that he has somehow managed to weave in this Chamber by focusing on what may or may not happen. This constructive dialogue is time limited with a clear purpose, working with international partners. It is about trying to learn from our history but, crucially, to move forward into the future. As I said in my statement, our position on reparations has not changed.
