motion text | That this House notes that in the event of a no-deal Brexit, the Government has stated that companies may need to stockpile medicines, including essential drugs for the treatment of diabetes and other chronic, life threatening conditions; further notes the comments made by Mike Thompson, Chief Executive of the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry where he said, stockpiling by industry won’t be enough, as well as the comments by Professor Sir Michael Rawlins, Chair of the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, that disruption to the insulin supply chain is one of the ways that patients could be severely disadvantaged by Brexit; expresses concern that Brexit may threaten access to essential drugs required to manage and treat a wide range of diseases and conditions; and calls on the Government to provide reassurance to people with drug dependent illnesses regarding their access to essential drugs if a no-deal Brexit is the outcome of negotiations. | |||||||||||||

motion text | That this House expresses concern at the continuing lack of justice for victims and survivors of the Marikana Massacre in South Africa in August 2012 and at the involvement of Lonmin, a London-based and listed company, in that massacre; urges the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to call on the Government of the Republic of South Africa to release the miners who are in prison as a result of the Massacre, to review the Farlam Commission and prosecute those responsible for the Massacre, and to compel Lonmin to fulfill its obligations under its Social and Labour Plan; further calls on the UK Government to ask Lonmin to publish in full the results of the audit of its Marikana operations by its primary customer BASF, and to enter into a social covenant with specific timeframes with the entire mining community, to include an apology to the South African nation and to the families of the mineworkers murdered, injured or arrested, reparations to the affected parties, including all dependents of the deceased mineworkers and the injured and arrested workers who survived the massacre, taking public responsibility for the environmental destruction at Marikana, and ensuring that people in the communities around the mine have sufficient water, proper sanitation and electricity; and calls on the Government to insist that when Lonmin is sold, any new owners must continue to fulfil this social covenant and that this is reflected in the purchase contract. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

motion text | That this House welcomes the commitment given by the Chancellor of the Exchequer that no further private finance initiatives (PFI) and public private partnerships (PPP) contracts will be entered into by the current Government; records that PFI and PPP was devised by the Treasury as an accounting mechanism to keep the capital costs of public projects off the Treasury balance sheet; recalls that this sleight of hand was embraced by the Major Government and, regrettably, continued by the Blair and Brown Governments, despite mounting evidence that it offered extremely poor value for money for taxpayers; notes that the senior Treasury official credited with devising PFI and PPP was Stephen Robson, who was rewarded with a knighthood for efforts and who, on leaving the Treasury in 2001, served as a director of Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS); and further notes that Robson was a director of RBS during the time when the Bank imploded due to mismanagement, and the taxpayer had to provide more than £45 billionn to bailout RBS's gambling debts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

motion text | That this House recognises the great strength of public anger at the behaviour of England's private water companies; notes that contrary to the claims of the water industry, a recent paper published by Greenwich University's Public Services International Research Unit has found that private water shareholders have benefited from £56 billion in dividends, funded through £51 billion of debt, which customers are paying for through their bills, and that private funding is not necessary to cover the English companies' operating costs, interest and capital investment; congratulates the publicly owned Scottish Water on its successful operation for the last 16 years, and for saving their customers £42 per year on average compared to English bills; recognises the sustained campaign for public ownership of water headed by We Own It and backed by Compass, GMB, Unite, UNISON, the New Economics Foundation and the Transnational Institute this past summer; further recognises the potential for a publicly owned water industry in the UK to reduce bills, leaks and pollution, and to improve our cities and waterways; eagerly anticipates modern, democratic and participatory public ownership of public services; and calls on the Government to bring the English water companies into public ownership as soon as possible. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

motion text | That this House expresses great concern with the anti-migrant rhetoric being used by the Italian Government; notes with alarm that the right-wing Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini has in the past talked of a mass cleansing of migrants, street by street, and has referred to southern Italians as parasites; commends the town of Riace in Calabria, southern Italy, for its work over 20 years welcoming refugees and providing living accommodation and work in order to offer a dignified life, in contrast to the slave labour and dangerous working conditions many new migrants face; further notes that the migrant welcoming programme in Riace has revitalised what had been a declining rural town plagued by unemployment and outward migration; further commends the administration in Riace for lowering unemployment by growing the local community and economy, preventing the closure of local amenities including schools, against a regional trend of spiralling unemployment, challenging the anti-migrant rhetoric which pits the needs of locals against migrants; further expresses deep concern that on the morning of 2 October 2018, the Mayor of Riace Domenico Lucano was arrested and put under house arrest following a politicised verbal attack on him in June 2018 by Matteo Salvini and the withdrawal of Government funds for the migrant welcome programme; believes that this arrest represents an act of retaliation in response to his courageous campaign against the Italian Government's repressive, dehumanising and exploitative immigration policies; expresses full solidarity with Domenico Lucano and the citizens of Riace now facing repression and eviction; and calls on the Italian Government to drop charges and expulsion orders against Lucano immediately. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

motion text | That this House notes with great concern the report by London Economics which highlights the effects of the Government's freeze on sixth form funding combined with increases in running costs; further notes that in order to increase student services for physical and mental health, protect minority subjects such as modern languages from being dropped and increase extracurricular activities such as work experience and university visits the report states that sixth form colleges will need an increase in funding of at least £760 per student by 2020-21; expresses deep regret that funding declined by 22 per cent during the period between 2010-11 and 2016-17, resulting in a decrease in teaching staff of 15 per cent while in the same period student numbers have increased by six per cent; and calls on the Government to address this unacceptable funding problem as a matter of urgency. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
