Out for a run and then into the Commons. After some routine matters, I entered the Chamber at 1130 to participate in Justice Questions. I wanted to ask about the deterrents that currently exist in the prison estate, or lack of them, more to the point. Many prison officers have said to me that the clear white line between them and prisoners has become more and more blurred over the years. They feel there are insufficient deterrents to prevent, for example, a prisoner to attack an officer. My view is that if such an incident occurred, the prisoner should receive an automatic extension to his or her sentence. I had the opportunity to ask this question only once and unfortunately I was not called by the Speaker. On another question, I wanted to promote the Airborne Initiative, but again I was not called. Back to my desk for a working lunch and then to Committee Room 6 for a televised session with Brexit Secretary David Davis. He had to fly to Malta so we only had him for an hour, but it was an interesting 60 minutes, with Mr Davis answering competently and confidently. I and Labour's Kate Hoey raised several points on fishing, asking Mr Davis to clearly state that we the UK would be taking control of our seas. He said we would, although we would continue to negotiate with the EU on an annual basis about their access to our waters. This debate was televised and can be seen on parliamentlive. TV. Straight afterwards, I headed to 9 Downing Street for another regular meeting with the Government's Brexit team and Whips. These meetings are in confidence. At 1800 I headed to Committee Room 9 for one of the weekly meetings of the ERG, chaired exceptionally well by Jacob Rees-Mogg. It's a chance for MPs and Peers to get together to discuss Brexit related issues. The meeting was in confidence and well attended. No vote at 1900 so back for supper with my wife.
