motion text	That this House condemns the immoral widespread extreme poverty in the UK as detailed by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights; observes the central role played by this UK Government, particularly by the DWP, in deepening this ongoing poverty crisis since 2010 through ideological social security cuts to the least politically powerful; stresses the need for the reality laid out in the UN's report to be rectified with increased social security spending in order to stem, as the UN report outlines, a seven per cent rise in child poverty by 2022; champions the churches teachers, charities and community groups fighting back against those Government attacks on the most vulnerable; acknowledges that Wales faces the highest relative poverty rate in the UK, with almost one in four people living in relative income poverty, and in-work poverty growing in Wales over the last decade, despite improvements in the Welsh employment rate; praises the Scottish Government for using newly devolved powers to establish a promising social security system guided by the principles of dignity and social security as a human right, co-designed on the basis of evidence, which eschews sanctions entirely and, in contrast to Universal Credit, is decidedly not digital by default; and calls on these same powers devolved to Scotland also to be devolved to Wales so that the Welsh Government, if it so chooses, can take similar steps to redress these domestic horrors reported by the United Nations and brought about by the Government.

motion text	That this House notes that, as part of the Government's health education funding reforms, new students in England starting a nursing, midwifery or allied health professional course can apply for financial support from the Learning Support Fund (LSF); regrets that this does not extend to those students studying university paramedic courses; believes that student paramedics face similar costs and should not be excluded from accessing potential sources of financial support; further notes that in April 2018, according to job vacancy figures, ambulance services in England were short of almost 1,000 staff; and therefore calls on the Government to allow student paramedics to apply for support from the LSF as a way of tackling high attrition rates on paramedic courses and improving the retention of student paramedics within the NHS workforce.

motion text	That this House condemns the Prime Minister's use of the phrase jumping the queue during her speech to the CBI conference on 19 November 2018 to describe EU citizens living and working in the UK; believes that the use of this phrase incorrectly implies that EU citizens exercising their rights to work in the UK have acted improperly; further believes that the use of this phrase by the Prime Minister has caused great offense to EU citizens across the UK who have already faced unnecessary uncertainty due to the Government's failure to provide clarity over their future rights and status following the 2016 referendum; expresses its gratitude to the contribution made to our society, communities and economy by citizens of other EU member states living and working in the UK; urges the Prime Minister to apologise for her offensive remarks; and calls on the Government to end the continuing ambiguity surrounding the status of EU citizens after Brexit and to guarantee all the rights, freedoms and opportunities that EU citizens in the UK and UK citizens in the EU currently enjoy in the event that the UK leaves the European Union.
