Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 January 2026
Debate
Crime and Policing BillContribution
I have met the officer involved in the Chris Kaba case. The experience his family had over the years that he was under inquiry was pretty awful. They had to move out for a while and had to decide whether to permanently move home. We all say, “Well, actually, this is just a point of principle and a legal issue”, but it is not to them; this is their life. I understand why the media make the argument and why it is a legal issue that must be debated properly, but I think this is a minor measure that might give some comfort to a brave group of people whom we rely upon.
