some of the stuff that David Davis has said, the way that David Willets talks.

Jesse Norman wrote a whole book about this just after the crash, and so on.

They're much more robust about criticizing business, because Labor has this kind of terror that it's gonna be called anti-business.

I wonder when you or other people would think that social mobility was at its greatest in this country.

Because if I had David Davis on the program, he would say, well, it was at its greatest when we had lots of grammar schools because they gave working class kids like him opportunities and a leg up that just simply aren't available to many people nowadays.

Yeah, I think, you know, I'm in my 30s, so I don't think it's gone.

I don't think the period of greatness gone is harder for young people to potentially, if they're in a household where the parents don't work, to maybe achieve things.

And the father who has little to no parental leave has less chance to bond with his children, to the detriment of both.

As the debate stretched over three hours, a Conservative, Sir David Davis, stood up and argued that it was time to move on to the next debate.

He said Desmond Swain's bill had support from everyone who'd spoken.

That is not true of the next business, which is to protect our veterans from gratuitous prosecution under the government's new legislation.

And that's why this case is so unbelievably important, because it is going to define what kind of state Britain is over the next 10, 20, 30 years, and what kinds of you know, the power that the state has.

And there's no, there's precious little opposition politically in terms of, you know, I guess, elected members of parliament in a way that there was opposition in the 2000s, right? I remember the Holton Prize by-election when David Davis stood down specifically for what he saw was the erosion of civil liberties and in terms of the Cancer Terrorism Act.

Is there anything you're getting from anybody of the supposed libertarians, the people who believe in individual liberty, especially, you know, the conservative types whose claims want to do so, and yet...

And this is why the threshold is very difficult to roll back on, because we've now forgotten that that was a controversial thing.

past, present, and future are treated fairly under the law and a law that applies to combat.

And this is where human rights law and the enthusiasm for human rights law, which I share when I stand alongside David Davis, who describes himself as a human rights champion, quite rightly, we fight for human rights.

But the application of human rights law, particularly Article 2, to situations that we have faced ourselves in and our colleagues and our successors will face themselves in, Article 2, to combat is inappropriate.

And it opens up these opportunities for our enemies, be they Republican-sponsored, be they Iranian-sponsored, be they Russian-sponsored, to continue to cripple our armed forces by other means.

You've just mentioned General Stan McChrystal.

Clearly, the British Special Forces have had this very special, truly special relationship with the Americans, Delta Force and the SEALs.

Now, with David Davis, Richard, you've written a very alarming piece in The Spectator.

saying basically the Pentagon is extremely worried that the Sama government's focus on international law may lead to potential lawfare against soldiers on the other side of the Atlantic.

So before Alex died, Alex had brought an action against the Scottish government for misfeasance in public office, and, um, his wife and heir has assigned that claim to a third party in Scotland, and it's now being vigorously pursued.

And of course, David Davis has made various allegations under parliamentary privilege about this, has made speeches about it in the past, which I cover in my book, and I believe that Peter Murrell's guilty plea is the tip of the iceberg of wrongdoing within the SNP over the last 10 years, and I, I think Alex Salmond will eventually be vindicated.

But I think it's very sad that he didn't live to see that, and I, like his widow, believe that the way he was treated by the SNP drove him to an early grave.

Still very upset about it.
