Baroness Williams of Trafford
I certainly agree with the first part of the noble Lord’s question and am very pleased to be able to join him in welcoming Sajid Javid as our new Home Secretary. While I have an opportunity, I also pay tribute to my right honourable friend Amber Rudd.
The Lord Bishop of Leeds
My Lords, does the Minister agree that a prerequisite to any intelligent discussion of Islam or any other religion should pay attention to the ninth commandment, which is that you will not bear false witness against your neighbour?
Baroness Williams of Trafford
The right reverend Prelate is right. I was just trying to think of my 10 commandments and might have forgotten some of them.
