United States Film Tariff ( 7 May 2025)

Stuart Andrew: (Urgent Question): To ask the Minister if he will make a statement on the potential implications for the UK film industry of the United States’s proposed 100% tariff on foreign-produced films.

United States Film Tariff ( 7 May 2025)

Stuart Andrew: I thank the Minister for his answer. As he rightly says, we learnt over the weekend that the President’s Administration intend to impose a 100% tariff on all films produced outside the US. It is understood that he has directed the US Government to begin implementing the policy immediately. I welcome the fact that the Minister recognises the film industry in this country as a jewel in our...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: Surely the hon. Gentleman understands that across all sports, political interference is frowned on, and has consequences for teams across the nation. Surely he agrees that the independence of the regulator is paramount.

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: indicated dissent.

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: I beg to move an amendment, to leave out from “That” to the end of the Question and add: “this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Football Governance Bill [Lords], because, notwithstanding the need for financial sustainability in the English football league pyramid, the Regulator proposed to be established by the Bill will damage the independence of English football,...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: First and foremost, and I will come on to this, is the fact that the regulator is no longer independent.

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: I will absolutely come on to that point. When the regulator is being set up and you look for people, you cast the net wide. Of course you do. You want to know who is interested and you want the best candidates. But I tell you something: if any donor of any political party had been put forward and recommended to me, I would have said no. That is the difference. The right hon. Lady said yes to...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: I wholeheartedly agree with my right hon. Friend. He is absolutely right. This is not—[Interruption.] From a sedentary position, Labour Members are saying, “You shortlisted them.” Let me assure this House: I most certainly did not shortlist this gentleman. Even if he was presented to me, there is no way I would have appointed him, for precisely the reasons my right hon. Friend has set...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: I say to the hon. Gentleman that his party is actually going to be adding cost to those clubs. I have just mentioned the £47.3 million, but with the football regulator’s remit now considerably expanded, operational costs could rise to £150 million, which clubs like his will have to fund through the levy. Baroness Brady, someone with deep knowledge of the football industry as...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: It feels like my right hon. Friend has already read my speech, because those are the points that I want to make. When I had those extensive meetings, that question of independence was absolutely raised time and again by fans who were worried that they did not want party politics or Government interference in the game they love, by clubs and leagues, who time and again wanted reassurances that...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: My hon. Friend makes really important points. This appointment is really important to the future of the regulator. What have the Labour Government done? They have announced the appointment of David Kogan, a key Labour donor and political insider, to lead the football regulator. It is deeply troubling—[Interruption.] No, I am sorry, but I feel really strongly on this. Let me be clear: Mr...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: The hon. Gentleman has just highlighted the fact that Labour Members went mad about that, but now they are doing so because this is one of theirs. Media outlets are now reporting that even some EFL clubs are deeply worried about this political appointment. If they are worried, we should be worried and we should listen. Members will recall that this is not the first time that alarm bells have...

Football Governance Bill [Lords] (28 Apr 2025)

Stuart Andrew: I have just been explaining why: it is because this Government have made an independent regulator a party political regulator. I am ashamed that they have done this. I ask the Minister to answer this question in her summing up: does she not appreciate that the appointment of David Kogan drives a coach and horses through the independence of the football regulator? Does she not understand that...

Culture, Media and Sport: Topical Questions (28 Nov 2024)

Thank you, Mr Speaker, and a very happy birthday to the Clerk of the House. As we have heard time and again today, and in the past few weeks, the Government’s jobs tax could cost £2.8 billion to the Department’s sectors—to the arts, sport, music, hospitality and tourism. Was the Secretary of State blindsided by the Budget, as the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural...

Culture, Media and Sport: Topical Questions (28 Nov 2024)

So it sounds like the right hon. Lady did know, which is interesting, given that she cares about charities as much as I do. They face a £1.4 billion bill.

Budget: Implications for Farming Communities ( 4 Nov 2024)

Stuart Andrew: In the Minister’s opening answer, we sadly heard more Government slogans and soundbites than real understanding of the fear that Daventry farmers have been telling me about.

Education: Topical Questions ( 4 Nov 2024)

Stuart Andrew: Thank you, Mr Speaker. It has been a while since I have spoken! Those at Buckton Fields school in my constituency were delighted when they had a newly constructed building, but that delight was sadly short-lived, as there were defects. As a consequence, with interim arrangements, the school’s roll has gone up and down, and now it has a £45,000 shortfall in its budget. Will the Minister...
