Thursday 29th January 2026 Lords Chamber

[Lord Evans of Rainow (Con)]

My Lords—

[Baroness Shah (Lab)]

My Lords—

[Captain of the Honourable Corps of Gentlemen-at-Arms and Chief Whip (Lord Kennedy of Southwark) (Lab Co-op)]

My Lords, we will have the Conservative Benches next, please.

[Lord Evans of Rainow (Con)]

My Lords, talking about truth and the noble Lord, Lord Wallace, looking for proposals, can I propose through the Minister that the Liberal Democrats’ use of fake local newspapers and misinformation to slur political opponents is something she might want to consider?

[Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)]

My Lords, but where would we be without their bar charts?
