UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

I will come on to that right at the end of my speech, if I may, to sum up. Let me quickly turn now to British war reparations, because this debate, of course, is about Polish and British war reparations. We have in Westminster Hall the hon. Member for...

UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

I thank the hon. Gentleman for that intervention.

UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

We have had huge support. Let us not forget that there are now 1 million Poles living in our country. Poland is the second-most spoken language on our island after English. I am very proud of the contribution that those 1 million Poles make to our countr...

UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

Absolutely. I am extremely grateful to my hon. Friend for that. The Soviet Union wanted some form of peace in the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance and the Soviet bloc—bear in the mind the importance of getting along with East Germany—so Poland was...

UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

That is a very good point and I do not believe there has actually been a formal apology to the Polish nation and people. Germany has not publicly stated to Poland the importance of apologising for what happened and of granting compensation. I have spoken...

UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

I did not quite hear everything the hon. Gentleman said.

UK and Polish War Reparations

Westminster Hall on 20 June 201820/06/2018

I beg to move, That this House has considered UK and Polish war reparations from Germany. Last year, I visited Warsaw to receive an award on behalf of my family for the brother of my grandfather Jan Kawczynski. He was acutely aware that in Poland t...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

The hon. Gentleman is talking about reparations and dealing with property rights, but will he recognise that the key stumbling block to all this is the fact that Germany has not yet paid war reparations? My friend in the Polish Parliament, Mr Mularczyk,...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

The hon. Gentleman is making a powerful speech. I want to get on the record something with which I hope he agrees. Poland welcomed more than 3 million Jews to live there before the outbreak of war, and the two communities co-operated and got on very well...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

The hon. Lady says that this law is not the right way for the Polish Government to tackle this issue. However, when we bear in mind that I have been writing to the BBC for over seven years to ask it to be more sensitive about this issue, and the BBC cont...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

The hon. Gentleman is, as usual, making an eloquent speech. At all these award ceremonies where Poles are recognised for helping Jews—certainly at the one I attended—the Polish Prime Minister, Mr Morawiecki, is present, as is the head of the Law and Jus...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

Absolutely. I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for that intervention. There is a huge lack of information about what happened during the second world war. I saw yesterday some shocking figures about young people in the United States of America: many of...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Gapes. I rise as the chairman of the all-party parliamentary group on Poland and as the first ever Polish-born British Member of Parliament. The hon. Member for Leeds North West (Alex Sobel) allude...

Polish Anti-defamation Law

Westminster Hall on 5 June 201805/06/2018

I am very sorry that the hon. Gentleman has received those comments. Unfortunately, all Members suffer vile abuse on Twitter, as I am sure he will recognise. There are crackpots in every society. Has he managed to speak to the Polish ambassador, or to vi...

Economic Growth

Commons Chamber on 22 May 201822/05/2018

21. Thank you, Mr Speaker. With regard to important infrastructure projects such as the north-west relief road in Shrewsbury, will the Chancellor give me an assurance that when the land frees up housing capacity when the road is built, that will be tak...

Topical Questions

Commons Chamber on 1 May 201801/05/2018

T9. Post Brexit, if the European Union restricts access to the Galileo satellite project, will the Minister undertake for us to restrict its access to the communications infrastructure of the Falklands and Ascension Island?

Agri-tech Sector

Commons Chamber on 1 May 201801/05/2018

My hon. Friend will know the importance of the agri-tech sector to the county of Shropshire. Can he give more details of how the transforming food production challenge will support our agri-tech sector in Shropshire?

Agri-tech Sector

Commons Chamber on 1 May 201801/05/2018

11. What steps the Government are taking to support the growth of the agri-tech sector.

School Funding

Commons Chamber on 25 April 201825/04/2018

The hon. Gentleman asks us to sympathise with his schools, but how can we do that when our schools receive a fraction of the funding per head that his schools get?
