Another dreary morning, which about summed up the situation in the Commons. A routine morning, where I prepared my speech for the debate on the Sentencing Bill. Down to the Chamber at 1130 for PMQs. Quite a lengthy session. There then followed two Statements. Suella Braverman was due to give her resignation speech after them, which gave me time to attend a most shocking screening of some of the horrors inflicting on Israelis on 7 October. This was a private session and the footage is not available to the public, which is just as well because it was deeply traumatising. The footage showed the bodies of 138 dead men, women and children, with some live scenes recorded on home security systems and terrorist body cameras. The footage lasted 45 minutes and about 40 MPs and Peers walked out in deep shock, some in tears. I now know a little more about this death cult and understand even more why they must be eradicated. Afterwards, I returned to the Chamber to hear Suella's speech, which was well delivered, blunt and to the point. I remained in the Chamber for the debate on the Sentencing Bill, which went on to just after 1800. My speech is on the website. We'd heard that the Home Secretary was going to make a Statement on the new Bill and sure enough he entered the Chamber just as our debate was concluding. Mr Cleverly spoke well and his speech is on the website, as is a question I raised with him near the end of the session. Some MPs had had time to read through the short Bill and there were concerns it was flawed and would continue to allow migrants to appeal against deportation. We shall have to wait and see. The ERG's Star Chamber is to look over the Bill and give us their opinion at the weekend. It was just before Mr Cleverly stood up that we learnt that the immigration minister, Robert Jenrick had resigned, saying the government's emergency Rwanda legislation "does not go far enough". He's a brave fella and one who felt he could no longer tell the public something that he did not believe would work. Meanwhile, former prime minister Boris Johnson was in front of the Covid inquiry, where he expressed "how sorry" he was for the "loss and the suffering" of Covid victims. I do think that this inquiry is fatally flawed, with lawyers only too happy to personalize it rather than investigate whether lockdown was necessary. And a judge dismissed a High Court challenge by campaigners seeking to safeguard the former RAF Scampton airbase. It's being turned into a centre for migrants. Having been through the mill with our barge, I sympathise hugely.
